Yippee! The Canada Post mail strike is over! When I got home from town on Thursday it was dark enough that I wasn’t sure that the flag was up until I got very close to our laneway. Eureka! The flag was up! We have mail! So freaking happy! Sadly I didn’t make any Christmas cards this year because it is too late to mail out anyway. As far as I’m aware sending out international mail has only just opened up for us.
My husband said that I made the mailbox look better in my drawing than it really is. Yup! That is true! The poor thing has been battered and bruised for the last 45 years. First, by kids who use to play “baseball mailbox” back in the day, then by the snow ploughs and work trucks. My hubby has had to pound all the dents out the best he can. Luckily when he installed it so long ago, he attached it to a swivel so it moves with each bashing.
So glad the days will begin to get longer now.
