Mail Call

After attempting unsuccessfully for over a week, I was so proud to have finally accomplished the backlog of bills, mail, and basically all paper traffic into the house. Last time I was caught up was right before baby came. He is now four weeks old already. Finally, I thought, I was coming out of the fog of newborn sleep deprivation just enough to fire at least a few neurons upstairs. To say the least, I was feeling pretty accomplished to have my desk back under control. I only had a few items to mail since I do most of it online but one thing in particular was a rebate so that was going in the regular mail on Tuesday. On Thursday, I retrieve the incoming mail and was excited to get what I thought was a personal note from someone. What a treat! Then I realize the handwriting was a little too familiar. Why would the rebate be return to sender? Well, it wasn't. In my fog induced mentally challenged sleep deprived state, I had mailed the rebate to myself!
