I've been tracking my fed ex package which arrived in Lubbock on Saturday morning. It was due for delivery today (Tuesday) but since it was in Lubbock Saturday, I stayed home all afternoon yesterday "just in case." Didn't arrive but no big deal.
Today I planned on staying home ALL day. Sure don't want to miss my package. But at 10:10 this morning I get a call from church and I need to make a fruit salad for a funeral tomorrow which means a very quick run to the store. I was back by 10:45. No Fed Ex.
SO I sit around all day, reading, doing chores, and waiting. At 4:10 I open the front door to let the cat in and there is a notice from Fed Ex. They tried to deliver but...
But what!!!!! I was here the whole time. I tested my doorbell. Works fine. My house isn't that big and I wasn't even in the bathroom when they said they were there.
I AM SO FRUSTRATED AND I NEEDED TO VENT.
Now I have to stay home all day tomorrow, too.
Tomorrow I am putting a sign up on the door to tell them I am here.

Poor Colleen! If it wasn't so dang hot here in Texas I would tell you to camp out on your porch! Posting a "knock loud and ring the doorbell" sign should work just as well :)

How frustrating for you, Colleen. I have been known to call the delivery services and go pick up the packages myself.. but I live in a small town. Keeping my fingers crossed that you will be dancing soon.

I could pick it up and it really isn't that far. about 25-30 miles round trip but heck with the price of gas....
AND I WAS HERE!!!!
I just need to vent. I knew this crew would understand.

I always hang a note on my door too - this town is so small they leave 90% of stuff without signature - I have cruise docs sent to Tony's office just to be on safe side -

You are allowed to yent, Colleen. I understand, you could have been doing a lot of other things today. Hopefully you will get them tomorrow. Then we can really dance....

That's frustrating, really. I've always had the luxury of having it delivered to work, but now no work! (But I have a concierge, yeah!)
You'll savour the package even more when you get it today!!
