dlynn and RatRacer, my shipping confirmation didn't show up until mid afternoon ... so, hopefully it shows up for the two of you this afternoon. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you both!

Thanks for sharing the USPS reliability factor. Mail gets a little squirrely down here. I hope that's the case.

Good news is that I received the shipping notification just now (mid-afternoon)! Bad news is....it wasn't shipped until today. But, at least I now know that my Chuck was, in fact, born, and soon to be delivered. Life is good. :rolleyes:

Yea! I'm glad that at least you know it was shipped. Only 2-3 more days to go!

Congratulations! Is the delivery room all set up?

Well, no confirmation notice this morning. So I'm thinking it is flying in stealth mode.

OMG I really feel for you ... I know I was a total nutcase waiting for that email saying that it shipped! Then, after it shipped, I couldn't stop tracking it at USPS ... it was like every two minutes I would paste the shipping confirm # in there.

I don't think the USPS tracking/notification system is very reliable. You might be surprised....

Very unreliable.

I'm waiting for a shipment and just got notification that it arrived at the sorting facility in Vegas at 0100, was moved to the Henderson PO at 0600, all about 15 minutes ago.

It's all about when they scan and update, which they aren't always Johnny on the spot with. I've found the ominous orange slip in my door, waited a day, and picked up my package the next day... only to get an update the FOLLOWING day.

I said in another thread that they sent me nasty notices to "Pick up packagde by Xdate or it will be returned to sender" days after I picked it up.

So keep the faith.

Just another note: If you call your Post Office with the tracking number, they can tell you if its there or if its out before you get the day old updates.
