Good luck house hunting Sprail!! That's really exciting! :)

Speaking of which, Bill and I just got back from looking at houses. We found one we really love and decided we're going to make offer on it!! So exciting and scary all at the same time. Its not a huge place but its very cute and charming and has a lot of nice updates, especially in the kitchen. We looked at over a dozen townhomes because we thought that's what we wanted, but I guess we were wrong.

Hows the house hunting experience going for you Trailmix?

Come Dine with Me. It's a super great show that I'm so digging. 5 strangers meet up and take turns cooking meals for one another for a prize. IT's a British show and it's awesome. Watching them try to cook all this fab stuff and having tons of mishaps is totally awesome.

OH and I have NO interest in Black Pudding...

so sometime this week I am finally am going to mail my family's package of gifts.. I have only had it sitting here for over 6 months :whistle:

so I was checking out how much it would cost and with USPS it would be just over 60 bucks and with UPS it would be just under 40 bucks..

hmmm, I wonder which I should choose? :whistle:

Marilyn-Hope your family enjoys the gifts...'Better late than never' I suppose...;) (though why have you been sitting on that stuff for 6 months..huh?)...

Definitely go with UPS...Cheaper and More Reliable! And they even deliver to the door too!

Weird though, how UPS would charge less than USPS...You sure it's not the other way around?

Lol...though if it is a 'gift' to the USCIS..do USPS for the lockboxes instead.more reliable that opposite way...:lol:.....
