Just an FYI for everyone. Domestic postage goes up a little AGAIN on May 12th. Grrr. Guess they are feeling the gas crunch too.

Sun is shining, and I'm feeling a little better today. Think I ate something that didn't agree with me yesterday. ick. But it's all good now. We have some plans for later on, so hoping the coffee will kick in by then, lol

Sandy, I know it's weird, but it is a federal offense to put stuff in people's mailboxes if you're not a postal person. Never quite sure how they would know anyways. :confused: If they mess up the mail, we hand deliver it to our neighbors so they get their stuff. Half the time they have our stuff too, so it works out.

Frank and Kay, Hope your uninvited guests leave soon so you guys feel better. :hug:

Renee, I've had a stone before and it wasn't fun. Hope it passes soon so you feel better. :hug:

I know Fin. I almost started thinking "Holy crap! Someone may have seen me and think I stole their mail!" That is ridiculous. Worse part is no one returned our mail and I am sure some of Jim's meds were in it. I think I may call the cops after I speak to the post office again on Monday. If someone gets caught with Jim's meds or ends up in a hospital I don't want anyone thinking we sold it to them. This whole thing sucks. You try to be a good neighbor and get slapped for it. I only switched two mail boxes and they were the neighbors I am close to. Whew.

hey all ..

hope everyone is having a better sunday than saturday ... sorry to hear about the mail issue, Sandy! and those postal peops get paid a nice penny too ... and they can't even do their job!

I won a George Foreman grill at the 'gunless' turkey shoot with my american legion yesterday - and a 4pk of thick-cut pork chops .. well, of course, I grilled them! LOL now to find room for THAT!

have homework to do - so will stop by later to check up on you all .. BE GOOD!

Frank I'm screening away! In a pampered chef screener no less, I pee in style man! LOL

Still no stone but having a bit more pain today, I go back to the doctor on Tuesday. Lots of appointments over the next couple of weeks with the kids too.

Yummy Kayo I have a bagel with cream cheese every morning and I just ate a mango and you get them fresh off the tree! Made some mango salsa earlier gonna have it with some fish tacos tomorrow night I think!

Sandy I'll call ya laters!

Chuckie vs Sharon... the match is ON !!!

Renee, Sorry to hear about the pain. :hug:

Vonn, congrats on winning the grill. :winner_first_h4h:

Happy Cinco De Mayo! :)

Yesterday was fun. Did a lot of running around. Then we came home and I went thud. :thud: But it was worth it, so can't complain too much.

Right now the sun is shining. Hoping for a good day today. Now where did I put that coffee? :D

Wiggled in bed all night from the stone pain, now homeschooling YAY we are almost done for the year!

Well, I called the post office and they simply said "We will talk to the person today and they will be more cognizant. These things happen and you should get your mail today or soon." WTF? When I mentioned Jim's meds they said "How do we even know his meds were in that day? You know these things happen." I said "The whole block?" and she said "Yeah." ARGHHHH

Sandy I know what you are going through.

We live in a newer area of town and didn't have a regular postman so we just got subs. Some days we did not get mail until after 6:00pm!!

We met our neighbors by delivering their mail to them including a SS check to the lady across the street.

When Bills VA meds got "lost" that was the last straw.

We got together and took turns calling the city postmaster to complain which did no good so we called the state. Now we have a regular postman and we are getting our meds and mail!

sorry about the mail/meds Sandy ... hope today it will all come together for you and Jim ...

Renee - I know the feeling of tossing and turning ... I had a stupid dream that I passed the gas station at $3.59 because I still had a 1/4 tank left - but when I came back thru... it was $7.14 a gallon!! good thing it was only a dream, right??

good news (I hope) ... the lady from the SSDI/SSI called this morning to say that she was able to get my papers submitted - that she was able to get the info on the Vocational Rehab person ... and she received my signed medical records release .. now to WAIT for the federal people!

I asked her if she had a nice time off and a nice weekend .. and she did - then she asked me if I had .. .and I chuckled and said that I spent some time with friends on saturday - but I just couldn't wait to get home to peace and quiet ... and calm down .. I said that it's hard to describe and write down on paper .. but that I spend time at home because I don't get stressed out - she said that she understands ....

the sun is shining here too .. and maybe for more than ONE day .. and into the 50-60s ... perfect for me ... I'm tempted to plant some flower seeds and summer bulbs (gladdy's) ...

have a great day .. I did find my painting 'business plan' that I wrote back in 2005 .. now to re-write it and drop it off at the new bank guy that asked me to! :Writting:
