Hello, it's me. Have to share this with you and thought it could also be a little game to follow.
Here's my story:
On Nov 29 I mailed a priority package to Redgarnett222 in Reno, Nevada. Everything is right on the package. Address etc.
She calles me and hasn't rec'd it so I track it and it has been sitting in Bell, Ca. since Dec 1, nothing else.
So we both entered a trace with our perspective PO's and this morning I finally get a call after waiting three days, and it has been referred back to my postamster in Bluff Dale. SHe asked me questions and looked it up and guess what??????/ Yesterday at 2:59pm it left Bell, Ca to go to Mass. 01152. Go figure??????
She said she will call me today if she hears but it will be monday more than likely. SO I went to USPS.com and added the number and low and behold it is indeed on the way to Mass.
?????????????????????????????????????????/
Won't it be fun to watch and see where all the USPS sends it before and if Redgarnett 222 finally receives it? ANy ideas.
If anyone works with the PO and can help, jump in. WE are anxiously watching and waiting.
I said before, it is like watching the red radar light for Santa on Xmas eve.
Happy holidays everyone. Let's prayer this wonderful package reaches her as it has lots od goodies in it.

I want my package...now!!!!!!!!!

Wish it would try harder. Many moons ago I worked nights at the PO as a single mom and I used to throw parcels and if it missed the bin I was aiming at I went over and moved it. This could be what happened and someone has still not noticed it isi n the wrong bin. I worked at the airport DFW so would stand in the middle of about 20 bins and toss the packages according to zip. So I can see how it could be lost. But never had to trace one. So will be interesting. If it is not found, I have about 8 sets of embroider blocks to re-do and two jelly rolls, and lots of fabric to replace. I know it was a box full of stuff she ordered and I gave her some things too. SO............ follow the postal brick road.

GOtta love the post office

Sounds like a Lifetime Movie Network movie......That is so wierd because the same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago and It went halfway across this country before it ended up in Iowa where it was suppose to be.... Hope you find it ok!

It would have been faster to drive it there. :) Good luck. :)

Not long ago I ordered a quilting supply for the Longarm. Immediately, I got a response e-mail saying they were on vacation and it would be mailed on the 15th of November from the PO & gave me a tracking #. I watched on the 15th....wasn't sent. I waited till the 18th and wrote them asking why they hadn't sent it yet. That afternoon, I went to the PO box and there it was!!!! The tracking site STILL says it's not been shipped yet.......and they wonder why they're having $$$ problems.

Hey, I see you have Nancy Zieman there in the picture with you. Lucky you.
I would have loved to drive it to her and spent a few hours in the Reno casinos. LOL. Then hours of quilting and talking with Redgarnet222 and sharing per wonderful patterns she designs. SHe is amazing on what she makes.

It probably will end up wherever the package you sent me back in October. Still waiting for that. I figure it has gone into the USPS black hole where packages are never seen again!
