Congratulations to the United States Post Office

 We both had a busy morning, working at our "desks" in the "office."

We told you yesterday that the Des Plaines Post Office overnighted a package to Terry.  Hold on for more of the story.

After lunch, Marilyn went on a ZOOM meeting to update the government policy of the North Shore-Barrington Association of REALTORS.  It was a short meeting and another meeting was set.

Terry got a text telling her that her overnighted package was left on the porch.  YES, BUT WHERE, not our house!  She called the Lady Lake Post Office and they reached the carrier who said she handed it to someone.  Really, where, not here.  We haven't a clue where the package is and the post office is now closed.

Then Terry got a call from the Des Plaines Post Office, from a Mr. Williams, who is sending her the Premium Forwarded (Wednesday) mail.  She explained that they had overnighted a package yesterday, he responded - "there is mail and we are sending it - WHAT IS THE ADDRESS?" Shouldn't they have the address with the premium forwarding information?

So right now, there are three boxes of mail floating around in the post-office world for Terry.  The overnight package, Mindy's package with Saturday's mail that was in Terry's home mailbox, and the premium forwarded mail from today.

During dinner we drank some wine and toasted the post office for inventing new ways to make our lives miserable.  Terry has placed her 4th complaint with the postal service and it's only January.

Marilyn watched Jeopardy and then was reading our book club book - Hello Beautiful.
