My E.T. soundtrack was in the mail yesterday. The latest, the best. Listening to it now.

Still waiting for my Mt. Fuji stamps. I'm wondering if I should write to the seller.

Kayleigh got another Transformer. I think its name is Arachnia or something like that.

I got little blue pins designed to hold my doona corners where the cover corners are. I put them on straight away and they have lasted the night.

The pin part passed very easily through the doona and cover so I've realised they're quite sharp.

I received a bill and some junk. Plus I received a gift for a family member I had ordered, and a couple of wine gift bags.

Nothing. It's Sunday. :)

Our postal workers are "whipped" into delivering parcels on Sundays these days.

Sadly, I ordered some sanding discs from Amazon on a Thursday, expecting next day "Prime" service and there is some delay. So, the same guy (Mike, possibly needing the overtime) who delivers our daily letter mail is out on a Sunday bringing my Amazon "delayed" parcel to my house.
Great!
I still feel like a heel!

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

It was on its way for 18 months?!?

They made excuses right from the start about why I wouldn't have it soon. First, they had to get a certain amount of orders the same as mine before they would start making them (the actual caps or just the embroidering, I don't know), then their company was closing down and they were looking for another to take their work on. Of course this took ages. And ages.

I think a Dutch company took over because that's what was written as the sender on the package. Not the company name, but the location. I had given up on ever getting it. It was meant for a present for Kayleigh's birthday in June last year.
