Mail with Mr. Zip

 Have you discovered Mail with Mr. Zip?  

For some reason this just popped up on my feed this morning.  From the looks of it there are around 28 videos loaded.  Cute little musical videos around 2 min per.

 

Enjoy.

Mail with Mr. ZIP

Description Mr. ZIP delivers the mail, no matter what! In this animated series, we see Mr. ZIP and his friends deliver the mail, solve problems in their community and create a more caring and kind world. 
 
Mr. ZIP has a natural talent and passion for understanding how things work, is ready to take on new adventures, learn new things and show up wherever he can be of assistance. 
 
Mr. ZIP is honest and thoughtful; like USPS he is here for everyone. Part of what makes Mr. ZIP special is that he's unique. He's part of an entity that is ubiquitous to our world, but not always at the forefront of people's mind. He's guaranteed to always be there for us. You expect to see him every day.

Of new starts... (New Puppy)

 It's Finally Spring!

We start this spring with a new puppy. Sadie is her name.  We picked her up as a 12 week old in Washington State on a quick up and back from home (well I did anyway).  We are dealing with a persistent round of a UTI on the poor little thing, although it doesn't seem to be slowing her down much. 


She is a lovely little Chessie (little for now).  She has the best temperment and one of the most beautiful coats of any of my Chessies..  Also getting along with the old fart at the house (Skits 10.5) quite well.

The path to understanding..

 

 



 So the hunt is on.  I have posted a few requests to Reddit and FB for some new folks to write to.  It's interesting some of the folks you come across on these different sites.  I swear it's like more of people looking for a long reply tinder site.  Nope not interested.  I have picked up a few younger folks, which is interesting.  I'm very curious to find out some social questions.  Anxiety, being one of the main questions.

Maybe it's the old fart in me, the Gen X coming out.  But I have a real want to know what's in the heads of the younger generation.  The thing is, my (gen x) is so not easily offended/put off, that it may come off that way.  It's not intentional, but a feat in navigation.  

Bear with folks, were all in this together.  Communication needs to start somewhere.  Why not a simple letter...

Oh to start over again (Writing that is)

 

 


 A few new trips in the books from last year, a few new pan-pals.  If you haven't heard form me.  Drop me a letter or postcard.  Would like to reconnect.  

Started writing again.  We forget the simple pleasures of sitting down and putting pen to paper. The process of slowing down and composing a thought.
