Return to Sender Part II

I get some pretty important mail in my mail box.  Unfortunately, it's not for me.  In August of 2009 I received a letter to the Supreme Court of Virginia that was mailed from Norfolk, VA.  It should have traveled about 100 miles, instead it traveled 1,294 miles. It never should have left the state, let alone traveled halfway across the USA.



Today I got this in the mail:

To the Curator of the Contemporary Canadian Aboriginal Art at the Canadian Museum of Civilization. 

CANADA, my friends!  CANADA!

Yea, that's pretty close to my house in Arkansas. 

Not.

Mailed from California to Canada.  2,976  miles.

Went to Arkansas on it's way.  3,165 miles.  I guess that's not so much out of the way.

Return to Sender!

*I'm not knocking the Post Office, I just think it's interesting when something so incredibly bizarre shows up in MY mailbox.  I expect the right house number and wrong street or visa versa.  Not CANADA!

**Taking a Snow Day at home with The Bean.  Mental Break from the hospital/Grandma situation.  She's going to a regular room, so she is better.  They are setting up Rehab and a Home Health Care Service.  Thank heavens!  Thanks again for all the comments and the people that took the time to email me too.  And, yes, I am a clone of my Mom.  That is a good thing!

I love my comments. I'd love to respond to everyone, but if you don't have an email address tied to your ID, please sign your name so I will know who you are! It makes it nice to know who is saying what. Now, leave a comment! Please? ;o)
