Good and Bad

Good = My ankle is feeling so much better! It's still bruised and puffy, but I'm walking normally, and I can bend it back and forth in a forward/backward motion. I cannot move it too easily side to side. I'm sure that will be easier in a couple of days.

Bad = I mailed in the application for the craft fair that I want to participate in on November 2nd. The PTA lady in charge called me today to tell me that she still hadn't received my application. Hello? It's November 13th! I mailed it INSIDE the post office, and it's being delivered to the same town! HOW has it not been delivered yet? So, I just mailed another application today. She told me that there weren't a ton of applications, and chances are, I would be accepted, but you never know what could happen between today and WHEN she FINALLY gets the application. It really bothers me, because I had to mail a $25 check for the space. I know she will rip up the first check or return it to me if/when she finally gets it (that's totally NOT what I'm worried about), but what if she doesn't get it? Where is this envelope, application, and check? Did it just disappear? Did it vaporize inside the post office? I'm sorry, but every once in a while, the U.S.P.S. really gets on my nerves!

I've got some cool giant paper clips to show you tomorrow. I need to snap a photo! Thanks for stopping by!

Glad to hear your ankle is on the mend....

Sounds like USPS are just as bad at losing things as the postal service in the UK! At least it sounds as though you should be OK to get your stall which is good news.

Glad to hear your ankle is better. How frustrating your letter went astray, I never completely trust the mail, I always have concerns whatever I post. At least it sounds like you will get your stall!
