The donkey arrived!

It is a miracle.  The Medicare Card finally arrived.   Far Guy about fell over.

He made me look at it twice to make sure it was the real thing.  Seventeen days to get from Baltimore Maryland to Osage Minnesota.  Maybe we should go from donkeys back to Pony Express it was faster.

Let's hear it for the donkey express - Hip Hip Hooray!!!! I can just hear the huge sigh of relief that Far Guy made when he opened the envelope and there was his Medicare card. Too bad you can't track where the envelope has all been on it's way to MN. via MD , FL, Puerto Rico, Mexico, CA, Alaska. Hahaha

So glad Far Guy finally got his Medicare card. He needs those meds for his T. Neuralgia! Hope that everything that had to be put on hold can be straightened out now.

WaHoo!

Don't you just love that it's on plain card stock instead of being laminated, of course it will last longer that way (ha). Of course you'll never have to take it out of your wallet. Glad it got there though.

Three cheers for the card arriving!!! Your photo made me smile. And . . . I have been driving to Nevis regularly (in warm weather) for many years and you know what? I have never been west of Park Rapids on 34! A whole new world out thatta way!

I so agree with you. Glad the Far guy didn't have a heart attack with the surprise. :-)

Our mail has slowed and Medicare is rarely speedy, I think.

Have a good evening.
