Do you insure?

I order some of my supplies off Esty. I have been very pleased with the quick shipping and how helpful all the vendors have been with information and my questions.

Last week I ordered and it crossed my mine to insure the order. Then I let it slip out of my head and I did not.

Yesterday my postman delivered my supplies- or what should have been my supplies. All I received was an empty bag. The side had been slit open and nothing was inside. The cut on the side was clean with the exception of just a bit of an edge. My first thought was, "no insurance." And to make things harder for me this was a small but expensive order.

Darn- I headed right up to the post office to report the issue. I know it did not happen at my mail box since I had just seen the postman pass by.

I talked with one of my ladies at the post office and left the empty package there.

I contacted the seller just to see how he handles his shipping. He hand delivers the packages to the post office and does not leave them out for pick up.

I hate to say it but there is a snake in the house between the seller and me.

Today I received a call and the Post master said it was obvious that it happened before it was delivered and they would reimburse my cost for the product.

I was very surprised and grateful.

The seller also offered me a discount for my reorder.

So I am happy with the outcome.

Next time I order I will pay the insurance fee.



I hope they catch the "snake" and get him out of the system.

Personally I use the US postal system for many things and find them for the most part good people, as proven by how well they handled this issue.


I was driving home Sunday and heading in to Seagrove for a quick shop of household items at our local Dollar Store. This was the truck I was behind.
I watch in fascination as the women let the dog run all over her to make sure he was hanging out the window.
At times she held the dogs tail up with his backside inches from her face.
I thought, " now that is tolerance."
When I arrived home and showed the picture to Mark he said, " No, that is resignation."
He went on to state the women has resigned herself to her place in the house as the person below the dog.
I sent the picture to a friend yesterday and she said, "No, that is just stupid."
