Which ear?

I've noticed something lately; as I'm getting "wiser" (older); things are changing in my life.

Like a hearing problem, maybe?   I've found when talking on the phone I hear better out of my left ear even though I am right handed!! So if that's the norm, what happens to people who are left handed? Do they hear better out of their right ear?  Or what if you are ambidextrous then what??

Well, since you all know how nosy I am......I want to hear from you!  Which ear?

P.O. Boxes

When I last posted, I talked about our mail box situation. I have an update!
The "sidewalk drivers" stole the vehicle that smashed our mail boxes, I'm told they hit 400 different boxes, totaled the car they stole and did about $4,000.00 worth of damage!

Now I'm sorry folks but Grants Pass isn't that boring!! There's lots of legitimate thing to occupy your time; granted most places do have a closing time and not many places are open 24 hours unless you visit Wal- Mart! 

Where are they now you ask? Why in jail and they'll have to pay back every single cent on restitution to fix the dilemma!! My personal question is this: Where in the world is my mail???

P.O. Boxes

Mail boxes......we all need them! We want them to be usable, accessible, we even want them to have a little "character"!  

What we DON'T want: Smashed, Trashed, doors open mail strewn everywhere......and  that's what we discovered on Sunday morning!! 

Somebody decided that it would be hilarious to do a little "sidewalk" driving!! We didn't think so.....it made us feel stripped, vulnerable and even a bit scared to think that our mail was "fair game" to any passersby who might want to help themselves to our lives.  I have to admit; living in the city is never a dull moment.....sirens, noise, dogs barking (mostly mine) laughter of children on the nearby playground is a plus...... 
So I keep those thoughts as something positive!  

Now I wonder, where is the postal matron going to put our mail, and will she actually get out of her truck and do some "manual labor" and sort the mail into the proper slots in the boxes that are now smashed, defunct and missing most of the doors???
