Overseas Posting

Dec 13, 2014 15:05

Yesterday, I managed to make it down to the post office, braving the cold and the crowds of holiday shoppers (being agoraphobic I don't like crowds), so all the overseas cards went in the post, YAY! If I have your address, there will be a card on its way to you. Whether they will arrive before the 25th is anybody's guess, our postal service is hit ( Read more... )

hugs f-list, yay!, real life

I suppose if it comes to it, you could unwrap the candy canes and use them as air scenters. I do love the smell of peppermint. *grins*

The post service is becoming a joke in so many ways. In more countries than one, it seems. *sighs* I just don't know what to think.

It's true, you consign something to the postal service then cross your fingers and hope it gets where you want it to go *sigh* I'm trying to be optimistic though!

That's a point, peppermint is a very good scent indeed *grins* I could use them as car air fresheners!

Yep, very true. My things are going out tomorrow, so here's hoping they get where they're going.

Just be careful they don't melt in the car in the summer. That wouldn't be a good thing at all. *grins*

Hot enough to melt candy? We don't get temperatures like that here, lol! I think I'll stick to just handing them out, lol!

I'll keep my fingers crossed everything gets where it's going on time!

*grins* Wasn't sure. I had candy melted to the dash in my car for three years because it kept remelting and I could never get all of it off - and that was back in Idaho. I don't dare leave anything in the car here. Now I just have to convince Mum not to leave her pop in the car during the summer. That would be a right mess.

Handing them out sounds like a good plan too. :)

Me too. Especially this time of year.

The post is always unpredictable around Christmas time!

Oh lord, you really don't want pop exploding all over the interior! That would be horribly sticky!

Yeah, I think they'll be good to hand out to visitors =)

I think even the postal workers are about a hundred percent done by this point of the year.

no, you wouldn't. I had a can of pop explode in my car once. There were spots I *never* got out. She might have to learn the hard way.

A good seasonal treat. Then they can have Halloween candy for afters if they're still hungry. ;-)

I don't drink pop so thankfully that's unlikely to happen in my car. One less thing to worry about! =)

I hope people will like them! I think there's like 38 in a box, lol!
