I hate USPS!

My wife has made 30 or so scrapbooks, and I was feeling your pain indirectly.

Trust me, you had a reason to be a basketcase. I am glad everything worked out fine.

Hey, did you take pictures? Maybe you can make a scrapbook about the package almost being lost!!!

I love taking an awkward situation and asking her if she will make a scrapbook about it.

"Hey honey, did you keep the hospital invoice when your dad broke his ankle? You can make a scrapbook."

 

SC: Wife had important government application due to office on Monday. We sent it via FedEx on Saturday will all assurances that it would be there on Monday morning. On Tuesday it was still a state away. Fortunately we tracked it and was able to e-mail the application on Monday.

I'm so sorry about your presents to your parents. I rarely post, and was about to vent on Monday, but didn't think cursing would have brought about much Christmas spirit ...

 

Big relief, sc. I so felt your pain.

 

Glad to hear it SC. And it makes me more optimistic the package I sent home yesterday will show up.

 

Yeah, ducking right into her primary target zone.

 

Awe. Some.

 

SC: Better late than never!

 

Have you thought about dumping the first "S" next time? Or is UPS the same way?

I'm just saying, because I ordered something Saturday and I received it today, like they said I would.

 

Got my annual gift package of smoked meats from my aunt yesterday morning. Sent the day before via UPS (brown) and still frozen solid.

 

Glad to hear it finally showed, sc, since rarely does the frustrated crafter want to redo a project.

I use USPS all the time and every so often things take a bit longer than normal, but I typically splurge for priority shipping and I ALWAYS spend the extra 45 cents on a delivery confirmation/tracking.

 

Ah, Ducky, you got suckered.

I hate it when USPS tries to up-sell me into a higher price bracket by warning me that Little Johnny won't get his Christmas presents unless I pay them an extra 30 cents.

I'm convinced it's a total scam. It's all going to get there at the same time no matter what price you pay.
