This week I realized that the mail issues impacted me a different way than usual. More on the numbers at the bottom, but here’s the deal…
I realized a few weeks ago that I was running low on stamps. I put in an eBay order and they took three weeks to get here. That was right around Christmas which with a no mail day in there put even more of a monkey wrench in the works. So I was without stamps and then a delay in getting them just really set me back.
I’ve been trying to avoid going places and if I have to putting trips into one. So I ended up going to the post office anyway to send a Christmas package and I got some stamps. Of course the eBay stamps came right around when then too.
So I just sent a few extras out around then… *wink* *wink*
Stay safe out there!
The Review
Here’s what happened on the blog last week:
- Monday: Rudy Meoli
- Tuesday: Don Kirkwood, Doug Corbett
- Wednesday: Eddie Fisher
- Thursday: Tom Donohue, My Best Nine for 2020
- Friday: Willie Fraser
- Saturday: Bryan Harvey
- Sunday: John Orton
I think it’s a safe bet that Tom from The Angels, In Order blog enjoyed this week. The theme was #shetalkstoangels and it was a good mix of guys I’d gotten before and some newer attempts. I think the other thing I liked about it was that it was all CALIFORNIA Angels. Did the Beach Boys have a song like that… “I wish they all could be California Angels?”
The Preview
Here’s what I have coming up for this week:
- Monday: The first DH…
- Tuesday: A super long last name…
- Tuesday: His name sounds electric…
- Wednesday: Brother of Robin…
- Thursday: Names after a bird…
- Friday: Last name perfect for New York…
- Saturday: Like what you can find in a grocery store sometimes…
- Sunday: From down in Weesiana.
This is a tough week for me as a Mets fan. We going to see #yankeedoodle week on the blog. I think you can guess from there what the team represented will be.
Other Notes
A week after a TTM explosion, I had a rough one. I only got 6 returns back this week. That meant that the backlog went down to 311. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It was just dissappointing. I’m hoping that either this week or next week I’ll be in for a good one after getting out some extras around the holidays.
Stay safe and healthy out there!
I thouroughly enjoyed last week! Looking forward to seeing whats coming up as well.
I knew you would! There are times when I think of specific people as I post all last week and I had you in mind all week.
