Mail problem again?

ocgirl · #1 09-04-2003, 12:33 PM

Does anyoneknow if there is a mail delivery problem again? It's been 3 weeks since I have have sent a letter and it's not like him not to write me.

I just thought I would ask!

That is a crazy coincidence. But my daughter and I were just saying the same exact thing. It has been two weeks and no letter! He always writes twice a week and they pick up the mail in the SHU every Thursday so I usually get the letters on Tuesday of the next week. But not lately.

I'm the same as Barbara, I have been getting my husbands letters within 7 days but he hasnt received a thing from me in over a month!

I still haven't received any letter recently! The last one I received postmarked Aug 15 said that he would write me weekly like usual and yet I haven't received a single thing. Is it just me or does anyone else ever feel real worried sometimes. Like if he were sick or worse, would they notify me? I have been listed as his emergency contact.

Still no mail or phone call.

I am getting REALLY worried!

Hi, my grandson Zach just got a letter from Richard thanking him for the birthday card he sent to him back at the first of August. Maybe we should have a contest to see who's mail is taking the longest

Barbara I will beat ya in the 'who's mail is taking the longest', only because our postal system is going on strike next week I really want to swear after writing that but I wont!!!!!!!

I just got a letter from my son (general pop.) yesterday - the 24th - that was postmarked the 22nd. I know that mail to and from the SHU takes waaaaay longer. However, when we were on a phone call the night before (he calls me about once a month...most calls go to his wife), we were about 5 minutes into it when the prison phone blew up...or at least, that's what it sounded like from my end! Can't hardly call back to ask what happened!

I just received a letter from my son and he finally received the mail I had sent him and it took 22 days. He writes they have been through this before and it is just a total mess.
