I picked up my mail around noon. Due to the extended federal holiday, both New Years & President Fords' funeral, there was so much I almost had to make two trips. Poor KukriKhan must have had to visit his chiropractor after work today.:laugh4:

Because the mail never stops. It just keeps coming and coming and coming. There's never a letup, It's relentless. Every day it piles up more and more, but the more you get out, the more it keeps coming. And then the bar code reader breaks. And then it's Publisher's Clearinghouse day!
At least the stores don't send out the huge 30 lb catalogs anymore.

I got home from work last night and took the dogs for a walk. The Posties were still delivering in my neighborhood at 8:30pm. Must have been a rough day...

What's a chiropractor?

What's a chiropractor?

He/she is a licensed, but not medical, back (spine) doctor (small "d"). Some in the medical community regard them as phonies, but many postal carriers swear by them - including little 5'1" Mrs. Kukri (also a posty), who visits hers every other week. Those fully-loaded 70-lb. mail satchels can wear one out pretty quickly.

Wednesday WAS quite a heavy day (12 hours; 8 on-the-street). Beer tasted really good after that day. ~:cheers:

Thanks for the sympathies. :bow:
