I feel like I just spent 2 days doing nothing at all. In reality, I spent the 2 days looking through those big crates at the post office. You know the ones, they are like 8 feet long, 4 feet high, and 4 feet wide. They are on wheels and the USPS uses them to move the mail. Yeah, my neighbor M and I spent 2 long days looking through 8 of those. She has an eBay store. And I was just trying to claim all of our missing packages.
Initially, I thought this was going to be quick. I figured I would look through a few boxes, find what was mine and the girls, and get to take it. Not at all. Since we sent so many packages, and almost all of them are missing, there was a lot to go through. M and I had a lot of things to go through. A LOT!!! And even more paperwork to add to that.
In reality, we shouldn't be so upset. M makes a living by selling on eBay. She pretty much has had little or no income for the past 3 months. I feel really bad for her. Yes, it is also important to us, but we are swapping, not making a living here. Either way, it should be completely cleared up by next week.
For a while, I think I am going to avoid swapping. One, I feel bad. Two, I don't know what people will think if I try to swap again. Three, I am so exhausted trying to track down everything. I love to swap, but when the USPS is having issues, it just isn't worth it.
XOXO
