UPS Store To The Rescue….

The out of state Christmas gifts are on their way……..I got them all wrapped this morning and went to the garage to find boxes so that I could pack them and get them to the PO. I hit a brick wall (theoretically, not literally – I don’t have any brick walls in my garage)!!!! The only boxes I had were either too flimsy or way, way too large or way, way too small — nothing that would work!!!! It was getting to be about 10:30 am and the PO closes at noon!!! No time to go buy boxes, pack the gifts, and get to the PO! I was kicking myself (again – theoretically, not literally – I’m not that limber) because now it looked like I wouldn’t get them shipped until Monday! But, as I sat there on the couch thinking about my options, a commercial came on about the UPS Store and their packing services! WOO HOO, a solution – we have a UPS Store here in Sanford!!! I put the gifts in bags and headed out to Bragg Street! They were wonderful………they took my gifts with big smiles and friendly greetings — packaged them right then and there — took the recipient info — slapped on the labels — and in no time at all, I had a box on its way to Albion, NY (my brother and his family) and one on its way to Summerville, SC (my neice)!!! Well – they will actually go out on Monday, but they are on their way as far as I am concerned and I’m absolutely positive that they did a MUCH better job of packing than I would have done (literally, not theoretically – I am a sloppy packer)!!!!!

One goal for the weekend down – one to go……..
