,
That's a wonderful, feel good story and I'm so glad everything worked out well
.
My postie likes to stop and have a chat if he sees me around the letter box. In one of our later conversations it turned out he had an interest in astronomy and then that conversation went for a loooooong time. Mail was delivered a bit late that day
, especially when he found out that the package he just gave me contained a piece of the famous Russian meteorite a few years ago
. He got so excited, he got me to open up the package right then and there
. I was so nervous, and I didn't really want to because there was nothing between me and the ground on opening it and him handling it, in case it fell
, but I did so anyway
. Aye, I'm just too nice sometimes
. But oh boy, what a thrill he got
! I'm sure he'd have some wonderful stories to tell of him touching a piece of it
.
One day, hubby was home and I said you go see him to get your stuff. He got rounded up for a good chat too
. It's all good, I think it's a great to have a friend in your postie, especially going by some of the comments here with goods delivered that likely shouldn't have made it.
