I am a retired, home bound, disabled person, weighing 600 pounds, and I write well over 50 letters a week as I am living THE GOOD LIFE at Waters Edge in Harbour View.
Several weeks a year I mail out over 250 letter and post cards to my neighbors and homeowners at Waters Edge.
I understand the postal machines sometimes slap a label on my letter, or post card, saying it's "DELIVERABLE" or "NO SUCH ADDRESS" as it processes with hundreds of thousands of letters going through sorting machines 100 miles away, in Richmond, and sent back here only to be delivered next door.
It's as ridiculous, I guess, as me giving my caregiver letters to put in our community mailbox a block away that are addressed to my next door neighbors or myself (I like to know when they are delivered in our community).
Overall, I am proud of our postal service even though machines and people do make mistakes.
Fortunately, at Waters Edge, we have a back-up plan: Our Neighbors. Most don't know each other, but we are all enjoying THE GOOD LIFE at Waters Edge and think nothing of helping each other by either re-mailing our neighbor's mail when they receive it by accident or actually taking the time to hand deliver the mail to the correct address themselves.
I thank God for my postal service, my mail men and women, and especially my neighbors.
