The Mailing is Finally Ready for the Post Office!
Friday, January 27
I found another one-hundred-seventy-five newsletters that had Page 2 printed upside down on the back of Page 1. I’ve been doing this for sixteen years and don’t remember printing so many incorrectly before. I was probably occupied with something else in the office when I was printing these earlier in the week – and not paying attention to the second side of the newsletter. I do much larger mailings, but I am ready for this one to get to the Post Office!
My Sister
My sister Nancy called to see if her daughter Chelsey (who wasn’t feeling well enough to go to school) could stay here for two or three hours while she took care of several appointments. That worked for me, because our children’s room is on the main floor and the office is in our basement. That way Chelsey could watch March of the Penquins on DVD while I continued to work – hardly knowing she was here.
When Nancy got back, she noticed I still had several trays of envelopes to stuff, so spent a few hours helping. Stuffing envelopes doesn’t take a lot of concentration, so it was fun to get caught up on each others lives. Our houses are back-to-back in the same woodlot, but our busy lives have kept us going in different directions recently.
