So, if anyone hasn't experienced my (Jen) absentmindedness yet, read this story. I bought some postcards last week to send to family but had procrastinated in writing them. Last night I couldn't sleep so I finally wrote them all out. I put the stamps on them and laid them next to my computer. Today I had to go to the post office to pick up a package from Mike, and I thought "perfect, I will take my postcards and mail them there." Well, I completely forgot to mail them at the post office. Christine and I went window shopping for a couple of hours after that and as we were leaving the Centrum, I saw the post box where you can drop in your mail. I was excited to be able to mail them and finally get them out to my family. On the bus ride home, I was thinking about the situation. Then I remembered "Oh no! I didn't put the addresses on the postcards!" No wonder they were still sitting next to my computer and not in my backpack. And, it is very expensive to buy postcards and stamps here. That's about $13 down the postal tube. Hahaha. Well, at least the postal worker who picks up that mail tomorrow will get a good laugh! So... dad, mom, and Kathy, I will have to rewrite your postcards.
In my package, I received an awfully cute build-a-bear dressed in an eagles uniform - cleats, helmet, and all. His name is Mike. Isn't my husband so thoughtful! It also had my winter coat, which I have really needed these past few days. I was thrilled to put it on today! Also in the box were some great chick flicks and my favorite cookbook. What a great package!
Christine and I bought tickets for a day trip to Granna next weekend. It is an island where they make their own famous candy. We are excited to go. We took some pictures today of the Centrum which we will upload sometime soon.
