A profound apology! To Sue....

Pepper Dec 30, 2012 09:02 AM

I am just distraught. It has come to my attention that the gift I sent to my Secret Santa never arrived at it's destination. I just feel so awful as I mailed it in a very timely fashion and was certain the name and address were correct. I can not explain why it did not arrive!!

But to my Secret Santa recepient (Sue), I offer my apologies for some kind of mix-up and assure you that it had to have been the post office's fault. Bummer!!

Please, know that I will send another gift to you soon as I don't want you to think I would be so unkind or forgetful.

Sincerely, Pepper's Mom-Joolie in St. Louis

Nico,

You tell youse mommy that I still so sorry that this happened whether it be my fault or not. Perhaps the original gift will eventually show up ~ or not ~ but please tell her that I am going out shopping tomorrow and will put another replacement gift in the snail mail soon. Will you please email me your address so that just in case I had it wrong when I sent the first gift, that I do not make the mistake again. Pepperstl@aol.com

Please look for a gift/package in about one week's time. I am glad that you let me know that my first gift did not arrive. I would not have thought you rude to not say something about the gift but glad you let me know. It was my fault not to have insured it, I guess. I usually do not have problems with snail mail/post office but as you say, these things do occasionally happen. I just sorry it happened to you.. (and me).

Love, Mom-Joolie =^..^=

You know how once in a while, on the news, they report how a letter or postcard finally gets delivered after 50 years or so? I keep visualizing this is what the headline will be in the year 2062:
ELDERLY WOMAN, NAMED SUE, RECEIVES SECRET SANTA GIFT EXACTLY 50 YEARS TO THE DAY IT WAS SENT!
"A secret santa gift was delivered by the U.S. Post Office after 50 years to an elderly woman in San Francisco. No explanation as to why it took so long to reach it's destination from St. Louis. Contents of the package were chocolate candies which were pretty moldy and unappetizing but the little mouse ornament and cat pin looked as new as the day they were made! The Secret Santa sender is long since deceased and died 45 years ago as a very, very old lady. But the recepient, a lovely woman named Sue, is as youthful, spry, and charming as ever! A happy ending 50 years in the waiting!"

End of story.... LOL
