While tidying, I found some old "Thank You" cards. So I wrote a note to my USPS carrier today... just a friendly note of encouragement and appreciation. And asking her to pass along our best wishes to everyone at our local post office.

I put her name on the outside of the envelope, put it in our mailbox, and raised the flag. But I didn't include any postage. (I hope that will be okay.)

I am sure I have some around here I will do it today. Our mail lady brought my mail to the house after I had back surgery. She is a sweetheart, and right now she is about 5 months pregnant. I can't imagine doing her job in this heat, 5 months pregnant. Thanks for the great idea!

about all my UPS/FedEx stuff comes through USPS. If I manage to catch her I will see what she thinks about things.
