And I still haven't found the other fuckups. Sigh.


EDIT: Well, I got to the end, I tallied up everything, I triplechecked everything against the invoices, and I have three extra decants and was missing four others. I guess I just counted up the signups wrong! Fortunately, I had enough of all the three missing ones (two of one and one each of two more) that I could just decant more, and the extra decants went into the "to be sold/traded/given away later" bin.

On to printing postage now.

Note presence of Post It note apologizing to the poor mailman, who has to pick up 75+ packages from the porch and scan them all. (This is why we give him a very large gift card every Christmas.)

This is everyone who doesn't have Post Weenies -- I haven't gotten the shipping for those yet -- barring the one of you I emailed. This time around, I distributed the 17 free bottles the Lab sent based on who had those things on their wishlist: if there's an extra full GC bottle in your package, don't be startled! (One of you really lucked out: you only ordered one decant this time, but you had something we got a free bottle of on your wishlist. It pays to be a regular. *g*)

We managed to go through two rolls of packing tape with this circle, and I ran out of peel-and-stick shipping labels partway through. (This is why we went through two rolls of packing tape: I had to go back to taping on the shipping label. Sooooo tedious.)

Never did find the other fuckups, btw. I'm guessing I just counted wrong and/or forgot to put someone on the signup list so they weren't counted in the "how many to decant" counts.

(EDIT: Also, omg, how awesome is our mailman: I saw him dropping off the mail and I went down to apologize to him for the UMPTY BILLION packages: he countered by offering me his cell phone # so I can text him if we ever have packages that need picking up after he's already visited for the day.)

I left the box of envelopes alone for five minutes while I was picking up other stuff.
