Undeliverable
Jan. 8th, 2007 01:33 pmIt must be a year now since we moved from our old place. Last week we received a whole mess of holiday cards, automatically forwarded from our old address, from folks who apparently didn't get the memo about our change of address.
Today, though, I got word from a friend that a holiday card they had sent to the old address was returned as undeliverable. This means two things:
Yes, our old house is gone. Not a brick remains. It's now a giant hole in the ground surrounded by a tall plywood fence (though the Google satellite image, off by a couple hundred feet, still shows the happy house unmolested). We need to go take some pictures.
I hope there's no critical snail mail out there on its way to the wrong address, because it ain't gonna reach us.

- Our 12-month forwarding order has just expired.
- There is no longer a house at 23-33 31st Avenue where the mail carrier can deposit unforwarded letters.
