Default It's that time of year again, USPS delays

I hope they’ll turn up for you soon. I feel like when I post about USPS stuff I often get the reverse jinx and things clear up after I post.

I will say Alabama tends to have USPS delays and issues..just anecdotal, but stuff often gets delayed going through the Birmingham hub. Also Priority mail seems to get more issues for whatever reason. Many of my delayed packages tend to be Priority. Good news is it’s exceedingly rare for a package to go truly lost with USPS and will likely get delivered. Especially being 5 packages it’s more likely just sitting in a container or truck waiting to be moved…vs a single small package not updating which could suggest lost under a belt or under the seat of a truck or whatever. It would be unusual for 5 packages to go lost.
