Just a little vent this morning.
One of my dear friends has had a tough year. She's had her hours and pay cut, and she's been bounced around from job to job within her organization. She just recently failed a major exam she needed to move forward with her credentials. She sounds so sad this year.
We don't normally exchange gifts, but I found a beautiful lapel pin to send her for Christmas. I mailed it December 13 and it has still not arrived at her house- she only lives 250 miles away. It should have been there well before now.
Of the boxes I shipped, why that box? It was only $20 so I didn't insure it. Looks like my friend is not getting her beautiful pin and I'm out $25 (with shipping). What a bummer. :^(
Why did THIS one go missing?

I wouldn't write it off as lost. USPS is terrible here and things often go amiss for 3-4 weeks. & that is non-Christmas season. I can't tell you how many things have taken a month to go a few miles, but never lost anything. So, let's hope that it shows up. (Maybe UPS next time?)
