    Drat, my second SP's package is sitting at their PO waiting for them to go get it. Says they left notice on the 8th, which was Saturday, so hopefully she gets it today! I sure hope I did good with this one too.

    You don't have nail files or note pads? Wow! My nephew & family are in Paris for the next 4 years. His wife is constantly posting on facebook about things that she really misses from the US.

    now remember.. this is a just in case scenario....

    just in case I have one this month, or next month.. or the next month.

    Oh Faye, I am in love with your Bostons! We had a Boston years ago and she lived up to 11 years old and passed naturally. I miss her (Clover). She was my absolute shadow. Those dogs are really smart and you are lucky to have 2 cute ones.

    hugs, Jup

    I agree - I love shipping from home! Gosh I despise going to the post office and it is cheaper to ship from home (both because of saving gas money and online rates are a little less).. whoo hoooo, love it! :thumbup:

I'm just saying I always take mine to the post office.......
    I found my digital scale on amazon. It weighs up to 100 pounds and cost me $24. I recouped my money shortly plus I can use the scale for cooking as well.
