Why the postman must hate me *UPDATE*

So.. All week I've been SUPER excited! I'm supposed to be getting a diaper (my happy post surprise) from Misty, a night time diaper from Andi, PUL scraps, snaps and snap plier dies, and I'm sure something else.... but I don't remember. Each and every day I wait and wait until 4pm when the postman comes, then I walk allllllll the way up to the mail box (it's a hike I swear!) and I open my box... only to be completely bummed out cuz it's only got bills and junk no FUN stuff! WTH! I know, I know a few weeks ago I overloaded the mail carrier, I had a FRB of diaper cuts and fabric from Kristy, GMs I got a STEAL on from diaperswappers, OBV and OBF and PUL from another Mama, bruise balm and deep tissue massage stuff from Whitney at Naturally Luxe (Ladies, here's a plug for Whitney, if you have kiddos who are constantly getting bumps and bruises (who DOESN'T?!) you HAVE to get some of Whitney's bruise balm, it TRULY works wonders!!).... it ALL came the same day. I barely made it down the hill without dropping stuff. Maybe this is why the postman hates me?!

UPDATE!! It's just after 4, the postal service has delivered!!  But I'm still bummed, not AS bummed, but bummed none the less. I got ANDI - FLUFF (YAY!) Andi- I love it! The froggies are cute, Delaney has a blanket made out of that fabric! I also got my snaps and dies but that's it... nothin else... Oh well, just means I should have mail on Monday, right?!

Why would he hate you? You're ensuring he continues to have a job! After all, without mail we wouldn't need postmen =)

Don't feel bad- I think mine hates me too but I can see my mailbox from my window and its only as big as a PO mailbox so anything he can't stuff in it (bigger than 1 diaper) he has to bring to the door. LOL   We should start a fluff mail forum and update it when we get something baby/fluff related. lol  Anyways, whats the link for that bruise balm? No explination needed- I have a 2 1/2 year old boy. lol   Oh yeah and you should get your package today it said 2-3 days and i'm a TERD and didn't get to the PO til Wednesday (I think it was Wed).

I am surprised you haven't gotten mine yet since i sent it priority. Hopefully you will get it today! My postal worker hates me as well I am sure since I am always ordering stuff and it seems to come constantly. She comes to my door anyways since the mailbox is on the door, but then she usually has my dog jumping all over her!

Here's the bruise balm link : It truly is awesome! I bought two tubes of it, one for home, one for the diaper bag!

Did I miss the link, I need this stuff before someone thinks I beat my son! LOL

My post lady is crazy, she talks to her self...she has only had to bring one package to my door because its was like 10+ yards of fabric. She handed it to me and walked away mumbling about me and my package....

I always gave our last mailman a good giggle. He was in the Army Reserves with my DH and finally asked him why I got so many packages.  So after that it was "more diapers" "how much does this kid poop?" "Aren't these washable?"  LMAO!  We moved and they're both deployed now and I've never met our new mailman/woman in person (we have both).  I'm due for a huge box of OBV and OBF (11-12 yards total),so I'm sure he/she is going to love me too. LOL

Don't feel bad. At least it's small boxes that are getting delivered. Heh heh. Yeah I've had to order big stuff and the poor post lady has had to deliver it since it wasn't UPS or FedEx shipped. The biggest so far was the crib. I agree, it keeps them in a job when they are struggling too. They're making cuts because no one is mailing letters and are opting for email. I prefer a hand written letter over an email. Yeah so don't expect post on Saturdays soon. They cut an extra day instead of cutting jobs which to me was a better option.

Oh my gosh, I'm sorry ladies, I'm such a tard! This stuff really does work, and no, I do not get anything for referring you or anything like that. I just bought this product because Delaney is now mobile and trying to walk.... she's been bonking her head and it looks like I beat her! I was scared someone was going to call CPS on me!
