I don't think the Postal Service gets enough credit.
Okay, they're not perfect....no company is.
Still, an outfit I sent to Hannah was mailed at the cost of a little over $5, and took 4-5 days to arrive.
Think of that! To get a package from Fort Worth to JAPAN cost about $5 and took no more than 5 days.
Don't tell me that's not a simply incredible value. It's equally astounding to me to think we can mail a letter to Svetlana in Russia for a whopping 84ยข. From Fort Worth to Samara, Russia for 84 measly cents!
I really enjoy reflecting on things like this, y'know? We are so blessed.

True. Most mail arrives in a timely fasion for little cost. I'm amazed we still have Saturday deliveries. I thought they'd have gone by the board years ago, but I seldom hear the possibility mentioned.
For every story like that, there's a story like mine. Mailed a package from PA to NH on April 21 for around $5. And Mom and Dad in NH are still waiting...............
Ouch.
Mercy Maud, Moosie, you can't catch a break for nuthin', can you?
