The latest request was for invites to an eightieth birthday party but I wouldn't have the info until Monday night. Monday night I have no info so I attempt to get the info. No info to be had but while I'm there I get another request.
The new request is for labels for those fundraising cans. The fundraising cause - Save Our School.
I've done labels for the cans in the past but I need one of the cans on hand to get the measurements correct. I can get a can two city blocks away. I walk the two blocks.
"Hi, I'm Tim. I'm here for a can"
"Hi, Tim. I'll get you a can"
She gets the can and asks "Can you have them in two minutes? ...I'm just joking. Can I have them sometime tomorrow?"
"I can have them in about 30 minute" I wasn't joking. I ask "You have about one hundred can?"
"Exactly one hundred cans" she replied.
I tell her where I'll leave the labels which will need to be cut. She asks if I can leave them in her mailbox. I can. I tell her I'll try to get two labels to a sheet of paper but I think the can is an odd size and ask if the label can be short. She says "Sure". She mentions that cutting them may be difficult. The students will be applying the labels, kinda a craft project. I commit to cutting them.
Only one label fits on a letter size piece of paper. I think they came out nice. I didn't have my camera or else there would be a photo. I could jpg the label but it looks stupid if it's not on a can. Maybe I'll do it later.
I have the invites to do tonight. Hopefully, I'll have all the info.

Often when I send an email I worry that it might be taken the wrong way.
I send them anyway.
