Today’s Question: How do you receive (snail) mail, a box at the post office or a box at your home ? At home.
If you have a home mailbox, is it freestanding (on a post) or hanging from wall of building ? Freestanding
Is distribution (if a p.o. box) or delivery (to street address) usually in morning or afternoon ? Usually in the morning.
Extra Credit: Do you enjoy puzzles & games based on numbers, words, both or neither ? I don't mind number puzzles, as long as math isn't involved, like Sudoku. I'm not good at anything involving arithmetic, or logic.
Do you play card games ? Occasionally. I prefer dice or some board games.
If so, standard playing cards or games with their own dedicated/special decks ? Standard
With a physical deck of cards-or virtual ones (onscreen) ? Always physical.
Bonus: Are you afraid of spiders, insects, snakes or some other type of creature ? Not especially, although I can be startled if not expecting to see something. I hate earwigs and centipedes, but I'm not afraid of them. Most things are not as scary as they look, and I make a point of it to know what is venomous or otherwise dangerous, and what isn't. Very little in northwest Indiana is actually dangerous unless it's sick. I've attached a couple of pics of me from 2012 at church, and about 1997 in college.
Just for Fun: Have you ever seen a pseudoscorpion ?

Thought for the Day: “It’s terribly inconvenient, but honesty isn’t something you can pay off in one lump sum or cover with one grand gesture. It’s a daily grind: hard, tedious, unglamorous. It does, however, get easier with practice, and it brings relief.” -Nicole C. Kear
