I'm very distrustful of the USPS since I received my repackaged box of your mom's geneological stuff (badly damaged, I might add). Sorry about your edits. Hugs!

I've been told that the USPS has a slightly less than 1% error rate. However, when you factor in the magnitude of all they do, that fraction of a % is a very important and significant amount of mails. And they seem to always lose the important stuff.

Was that the one we mailed while there?! Did your other packages show up?

That sucks

Yeah, it was that one. I redid the edits yesterday and today.

So far three of the packages have shown up. Neither of my insured packages have, yet.
