This morning, I stopped at Almaden Plaza on the way into work to grab a cup of decaf from Starbucks and to drop a check in the mailbox there (I don’t leave checks in my mailbox at home any more for fear of theft). I failed in both missions.

The decaf of the day at Starbucks was Decaf Verona Blend; I don’t like the regular Verona Blend, and didn’t think the decaf would be an improvement.

And the mailbox across the parking lot was gone — there was still a UPS dropbox, but the mailbox vanished with no forwarding address. You’d almost think the Post Office didn’t want people to mail things any more….

*sigh*

It’s been a busy week, and, indeed, a busy year.  And although many things went well this year, I’ll always remember it as the year I lost my Mom.

I’m looking forward to 5767.  Shana Tova, and may you be inscribed for a good year!
