Helped my Mom, Aunt (her sister) and Uncle (her borther) move into their house yesterday. Yes, they all live under the same roof, should save a little on Christmas card and postage this year. The three of them have been a rather Nomadic bunch lately. My cousin remarked that they will all die in that house. I was a little kinder, I said you don't have to die here, but the next move will be by a moving company, even if we have to all chip in.
Speaking of postage, from Fox News:
No Wonder They're Disgruntled
OWENSBORO, Ky. (AP) -- Postal workers apparently have no special clout when it comes to being told the check's in the mail.
That's the case in this western Kentucky city, where post office employees are still waiting for their Jan. 12 paychecks.
They seem to have been lost -- in the mail, Postmaster Kristine Fox told the Owensboro Messenger-Inquirer.
"Somebody somewhere made a mistake," she said. "And nobody has 'fessed up yet."
Fox said she called several postal centers to try to track down the missing checks but had no success. She said she waited to ask for new checks because she kept thinking the old ones would surface.
"I wouldn't have waited this long," she said. "But Monday was a holiday. And I kept thinking I would find them."
The biweekly checks come from Egan, Minn., she said, and are sorted several times along the way.

Someone made a mistake and isn't 'fessing up? How odd that they should work for the Federal Government and be that way. I'm surprised!!
I'll be moving soon, I hope this year! To my own house! I'll hire movers!
