Thankfully, the only "Going Postal" around here turned out to be Prachett's


Woohoo!
After a tour of the east coast, the ornaments made it back out to Iowa and were delivered!

The Postal Service may yet drive me POSTAL!

I recently finally finished painting my charity dog ornaments and sent them out to the person who had ordered them in Iowa. They're actually painted to match her current and deceased dogs.

Here's a shot of one of the completed ones.



However, the box seems to be taking a very INTERESTING route on its way to Ogden Iowa.

I did call customer service to see if I can find out what is going on.
Actually talking to a living person on the USPS's customer service line is an odyssey in itself.
They say I should call again tomorrow if it doesn't get to its destination, so they can document it.

Quite helpful.

ARGH!
If they lose those, I am going to FREAK!
