The big accomplishment was to semi-fix the mailbox problem. The old post is broken at ground level. I hauled it upright, packed snow around it tightly, and mounted the new box.
Then I went to the PO where they released my mail from jail. That project was definitely all the physical activity I needed for a while.
I have to say that things have changed from the era I remember where mailmen would go out of their way to deliver letters addressed to pets, or with mistakes in addresses when the PO knew who the letter was meant for. They knew I was ill, but wouldn't give me my mail or bring it to the house even every few days even though the driveway is well cleared. I had to have a legal recepticle in order to receive it. So much for living in the same place for 54 years. I doubt the old box is going to be found until spring.
When more snow melts and it won't hold up the post any more, I'll wire it to the metal post. But I should have more energy by then.
So what did I get? Two packages(good)- several bills and some junk.
I am really hoping I can tolerate some extra screen time tomorrow because I may have the energy.
