Since July I have not been getting all of the letters or cards that
have been sent my way. I have had friends email and say, "Did you
get my letter, note, card yet?" and then months later I still go to
the mail box with hope. Any piece of mail is greatly appreciated, so
it is frustrating to know that many are lost somewhere between here
and there. When my roommate, Megan, went home for Christmas several
friends asked her if she had received the cards they had sent long
before Christmas. Nothing.
However, there is one monthly parcel that has never failed to reach
our post box: a padded envelope of People magazines. Both Megan and
I have received all the padded envelopes that we know of that have
been sent over. One of mine did go through Japan, just arrived here
later than expected. We've learned that the padded envelope gets
here better than a regular envelope. The moral of the story: even
if you are sending a letter or a card, please put it in a small
padded envelope to give it a better chance of arriving in PO Box 908.
Check back later for a post about my holiday here in Namibia.
