Believe me, I know the feeling ... after day 7 the panic started to set in and after day 10, 11 and 12 i was fit to be tied.

My status changed to "mailed" on the 1st, but the envelop was post marked the 7th.

Hang in there, it'll be in your mailbox any day now.

For my first carry outside of the house today, I went to Krogers today to pick up a few things for the wife and dang if they didn't have a 30.06 sign posted at the front door. I've never noticed it before (just goes to show you that now I'm looking).

So back to the car I went, locked up my little LC9 and went back inside to finish "Krogering".

Maybe the next time she wants me to run an errand to the grocery store I'll try Randalls or HEB.

Thanks Gringo, you were right.

How was that Turkey, incidentally?

Come Tuesday, I'll call the DPS and ask if it's actually been mailed.

I'm beginning to wonder if the mail carrier didn't put it in somebody elses mail box. We live on a cul de sac with community boxes at one end.

Dude Pep my status had changed to mail on November 1st as well. I was getting worried. But my plastic arrived today. I bet you will get yours Tuesday. Mine was postmarked on the 7th of November form Austin. I live in Conroe Tx

First, congratuations!

You've given me hope that it hasn't been lost in the mail, or worse yet, the mail carrier placed it in the wrong box and whoever got it just threw it in the trash ... I was beginning to panic, but I'll wait it out until Tuesday and hopefully I'll be doing the happy dance, too.

It sure sat in the mailroom in Austin for a long time, didn't it.

Again, congratulations.

I don't get it, 10 days (Thursday, November 1st) since my status changed to "mailed" and still no plastic?

I don't think I want to take that risk ... I'll just keep waiting until the plastic arrives and I have it in my wallet.

Thanks, though ...

I'm pretty sure you won't get it on Monday.

You're right, I forgot that Monday is Veteran's Day and there's no mail delivery ... as a vet, you'd think I'd remember that.

Thanks for the reminder.

AEA, I'm beginning to think you're right about the DPS only mailing CHL's once a week.

Mailman came and went today ... and still no plastic.

Going on day 9 now since status changed to "mailed".

Correction ... Austin.

Sorry bout' that.

A paraplegic snail mail ... San Antonio to Houston shouldn't be more than three days, tops.

Knotquiteawake ... are you with the DPS?

No wonder the USPS is bankrupt.

What happens at 1645?

Incredible, my status changed to "mailed" a week ago and I still don't have plastic.

What gives? Austin to Houston isn't that far away ...
