There are still good people left in this world:

The other day I decided to participate in some online retail therapy.  I browsed around for a while, found a few things, placed an order, and voila....I felt much better.  In the meantime, I get a voicemail message today from someone that lives across town stating that they had gotten one of my packages in the mail and would I please call her.  I did and she was so sweet!  Evidently our postal workers aren't the brightest bulbs in the box.  We have the same house number, but totally different streets, obviously different names and about a 10 mile distance from each other.  Last week she had gotten one of my books I ordered but caught the postman in time to give it back and I never knew the difference.  Today, she wasn't so lucky so she looked me up in the phone book so I wouldn't have to wait forever if it got sent back to the retailer.  She even brought it to my house on her way to run some other errands.  How cool is that? 

Since I've only had 3 hours of sleep in the last 24, I think I'll go read my new, hand delivered book until I get sleepy. 

Hugs,

Amanda

What a nice person! Around here I don't see that happening. It's okay, though, we only have issues with mail persons when we get a substitute. That's not often. Our guy knows us well, and even knows about the "circle of death" in our front yard where the dogs are tied out for potty breaks! *lol*

Glad you got your book back.

Sorry you're not getting a lot of sleep!
