Are you still up because you are waiting for your mailman?

I am still up because..... well, I'm still up. I'd have probably gone to bed by now if I wasn't scouring Guns & Roses images on Google.....

Mail won't be here for at least another hour. Not sure if I'll still be up or not.....

Could you at least leave them a note explaining there are 2 packages that are missing?

No, but I think we can assume it means our packages still haven't arrived :evil: . I'm so curious. I think it's just too much of a coincidence, since there are 2 missing packages. I am hoping that they are being held at the post office for whatever reason.

That is my biggest fear.

If it is stuck in the Post Office somehow, it is recoverable. At least in theory.

I don't know the back story and I know that when 2 packages, sent from different places both don't arrive in the expected time - it probably is not the post office's problem. One package - maybe..... two - probably not.

I wonder if the mailman would remember delivering any packages?

I think mine would.

Mine would as well. Some locales have a different postal carrier each day. Does lb know about his?

Actually, both packages were sent from the same place, probably the exact same post office even, as Christie and I live in the same town as each other. Christie's package was sent priority mail, about a week and a half ago. My package was sent first class mail 8 days ago. Both are mysteriously MIA.

Yes, LB knows about it. My package was actually meant to be a surprise, but when a certain amount of time had passed and I didn't hear anything from LB, I told him that I had sent him something in the mail. He still doesn't know what it is though!!

So... it could be a problem on your post office's end! That is a good possibility.

Oh. I don't think he does, but I'm not sure. I think LB is usually asleep when his mail is delivered.

Yes, it could be...but I just don't think so. I've mailed approx. 270 packages since April, when I starting selling on E-Bay, and only one never arrived. I've also sent something to LB in the mail previously and there was no problem with that package. It's truly a mystery!

Actually, not the Stratford CT PO. I went there yesterday at lunch and talked to the person at the counter who had processed my package. We used to live across the street from each other. So I went back to her and explained about my package. They both could be held up at the Bridgeport processing area.

I had printed out the pictures I had onto a page and attached my business card for contact info.

I always label my quilts so it actually has a sewn on label with my real name and town and a couple of other things like the month it was finished. If it gets separated from the mailing info, then if someone wanted to, they could find me. And the P.O. has info in case it comes back to them for any reason.

Now all I can do is wait and worry.

Yeah, but remember when I sent my package, and I got confirmation that it was delivered, but then he didn't get it for 2 or 3 days after that? But it did get there, eventually.
