What I Learned This Week – 3/3/13

What I learned this week was that you should never get the mail on Friday.  Bad news always comes in the mail on Friday.

Actually, you have now learned this.  I already knew it.

Toy Mailbox

You come home from a long week of work or taking care of your kids or taking your elderly grumpy mother grocery shopping.  You are tired.  You are hungry.  You are SO grateful that the weekend has arrived.  You are looking forward to winding down and letting the stress ooze out of your body like the jelly out of a donut while you lay on the couch and watch rich people shatter poor people’s dreams on Shark Tank.

Then you look at your mail.

Inevitably, there will be some piece of mail that is upsetting, from a business that you cannot contact until Monday morning.  This may be anything from a bill from the doctor’s office to a statement from a government agency.

And it SUCKS!

So, do yourself a favor, and let the mail sit in the box until Monday.

What about Saturday’s delivery, you ask?

Oh, we won’t have to worry about that much longer.
