My Mail


I remember when I was little, getting the mail was one of my favorite things! We had a Post Office box in the tiny town of Geraldine, MT because we lived so far out in the boondocks that no mail man ever dared to venture to deliver mail everyday!! I loved getting the key and looking for box 334! It was a little high for a kid so I had to jump up to peek and make sure I got everything! Then I would stop and flip through the mail so see if anything cool came. Like missionary mail, or birthday cards or mmmmm report cards?:0) Normally there was something I was amused by, if not the "funnies" (as I called them, others know them as the comics section of the newspaper) would keep me satisfied.
WHY NOW DO I ONLY GET BILLS AND COUPONS????
Oh, probably because missionaries now write emails, people text "happy birthday" and we read the news online. Thank you techlology for taking away my good mail.
I always wanted a little mail box with a little red flag on it. Maybe someday... if mail still exists!
