I hope your postal situation is better now! I hope your work is better too now. My tomatoes did not do all that well last year. I went to burpee website and have 3 tomato cages for this year and I bought seeds. The variety is Big Mama, that a fellow youtuber swears by. So I hope to have a good crop this year. I planted rhubarb last year and the Japanese Beetles loved eating the leaves of the rhubarb, so I don't know if it will come back up this year. Yes I see on your drive there are soybean fields everywhere. Last year I was surrounded by corn, so this year will probably be soybeans.
the postal situation is only a little better because i put in a larger mailbox, but she still can't seem to figure out how to close the darn thing. i don't know if i'll plant anything this year or not. i'm just not in the mood, but i really do love fresh from the garden veggies. we'll see :-)
This is an American problem as we don't have mail boxes here.. just letterboxes in our front doors.... if there is a parcel for us they leave a card to say it's being held at the post office where we have to go and get it. I always wondered if anyone steals your mail from your mailboxes? Nice to see you!
He Trish. I hope your post office has hours that accommodate people's work schedules. that would be my only issue if they did that here. well people aren't supposed to steal your mail because it is a federal offense, but it happens.
Since it's a rural route Im guessing she delivers from her truck and maybe can't reach to put things all the way in and shut the door? If that's the case, she needs to make adjustment to do her job correctly.
She delivers from a car. When i moved here (just a few years ago) i went to the post office & asked what height the mailbox needed to be as the previous owners took their mailbox with them! The mailbox was put in at the required height, so i don't think it's a matter of not being able to shut the door, she just doesn't do it. She also tries to put packages in the mailbox that obviously don't fit.
Oh man...that is frustrating! That party was the end of June, because I was invited, but was moving, so I couldn't make it. I was so sad that I missed it! Speaking of missing things...I don't know why I missed this video from you! Sorry it took so long for me to watch it. :~)
Girl it is so frustrating when the postal service doesn't do the right thing. We have to go to the post office but FedEx and UPS deliver to our door and just leave it there for the world to see. We need to put a tote out there or something. I bet you did have fun seeing Stacey and company! I miss South Tube sometimes. I'd crack the whip with my supervisor about your co workers not pulling their weight. UGH!!! I feel your rant! Hugs!
Oh Melissa, this mail carrier is awful! i wouldn't mind if she left things on my porch because there is a small woods in front of my house so no one would see anything out there. but if there's a miniscule chance she can cram something in the mailbox (whether it fits or not), she will. i'm so over it & it happened again today!
Yay!! I'm so excited that you put a vlog up 🤗 lol. You're right about all the issues that could arise with the mail being delivered that way. Not to mention, a near impossible battle to win when everything has been marked and shown as "delivered". You're not cranky at all...It's blatant disregard and unacceptable. Can you have it so packages are not able to be delivered unless signed for? I used to have this problem in my building. Yes, my apartment building. Quite possibly the literal armpit of hell in one of the most rundown parts of my city - But by all means please, don't knock or use my mailbox...Just drop the package right there, in the hallway, in front of my door. Fkn idiots, man 😄📦😐
i'll try to vlog again soon. sorry you have to live in the armpit of hell. maybe one day soon, you'll have one of those houses you drive by. i think i have the worst mail lady in the world!
That would completely frustrate me as well.... they should treat it like it's their own mail. if she does it again I would totally leave her a note or maybe happened to be out there when she comes by the next time if she has a regular schedule and ask her. & Yes..that was Great that The Humper got out to enjoy the party too. 😁 I hope that the house wasn't too messy when you got to work that would drive me nuts. Enjoy your day Gail.. hopefully it is a day off for you. xoxo
Nice to see you, sorry you are having a bad day. I have had to call on my mailman and ups, it is like "they don't make mistakes it is me.... no, no no.Hang in there.
It's good to see you too. I went to the post office & showed a picture to the guy at the counter & he said, "what's wrong with that?" I also showed it to my friend who is a mail carrier & she said report her to the post master. now i just have to figure out who that is.
I'd rather see you cranky than not see you at all.. And you weren't cranky at all.. You would think your mail carrier could close the box already!! How rude and inefficient of her/him.. AND careless!
Hi Gail. Good to see you! As you know, the post office makes me cranky, too! What is so difficult in putting a box into a safe place when it fits?? For heaven's sake. I have no patience for carelessness! Glad you went to see Stacey and the Humper! I bet you had a good time! I haven't been on YT for a while and am missing things. - roc
Hey Roc, I miss your face! i hope you will be back someday soon. this lazy mail carrier is the worst ever. She did it again today. I saw the package hanging out as i was driving down the road. grrrr

The post office hours are not always convenient, it's true

the mail lady did it again today. when i was driving down the road coming home from work, i saw the box hanging out of the mailbox. makes me crazy!
buglady58 It would drive me crazy too. It only takes a little more effort to do it right. I hope you're having a good night Gail. Hugs
SO happy to see you!
nice to see you too.
