That last post about the rock--well, turns out it was put there by the 7-yr-old who has been missing the nuts.
It has been a long, long time since a nut showed up. As I recall the summer was slow last year, but I'm wondering if my nutter has moved on to better mailboxes.
We'll see if things perk up once the school year begins. In any case, I will keep my eyes open for those nuts.

It's a rock!
(Said in Elmo's voice talking to Zoe about her pet Rocco)
It has been ages since I've seen a nut in the mailbox. But today there was a rock! Will have to ask the 7-yr old who has been bringing in the mail what he knows.

March
I was out of town for a long weekend in AZ to celebrate my Mom's upcoming 75th birthday. It was a fun girl's weekend.
I returned on a red-eye and arrived Monday morning, took a short nap then headed off to work. My husband found a nut in the mailbox on Monday. Not having his phone on him he left it there for me. Since I didn't know about it until later that night I didn't get out there. Then the storm hit on Tuesday, and I stayed indoors.
So here I am on Wednesday documenting a nut that was dropped off in my mailbox sometime between Saturday afternoon and Monday afternoon.
Second nut of 2017.

First nut of the New Year
Nobody checked the mail yesterday. This morning when I opened the mailbox on the walk back from the middle school bus I found the mail and the first nut of 2017.

First blogiversary
No nut today.
Let's look over the past year.
A total of 17 nuts found over 366 days (2016 was a leap year).
October, November, and December had the most nuts, with 4 nuts each month. No nuts at all were left May through September.
Most nuts were found on a Monday. A total of six nuts were found on a Monday with 3 nuts each found on Tuesday and Wednesday.
I'm still waiting for the first nut of 2017.

Another Monday, another nut day
I was in the office on Monday when I got a text from my husband that there was a new nut in the mailbox. It wasn't there for the morning school bus run.

Graphs
Here you see 11 months worth of discovered nuts in my mailbox. A total of 15 nuts found.
There may be some misclassification of days (I don't know when the nut was placed while I was away on vacation--only when we found it), but I find this an interesting distribution of nut appearances over nearly a year.
And what is up with the warm months?
A few more years of this and I should have enough data to analyze (ah, the life of an epidemiologist).
Another Monday
Another nut day!
Seems as though Monday is a popular day for nuts.
This Monday morning there was no nut in the box for the morning bus stop check. But there was one in the afternoon when my husband grabbed the mail. Monday is nut day.
He left the nut in the box for me to see--but since I came home late I didn't see it until Tuesday morning. When I have a bit of time (ha ha) I think I might like to analyze the days of the week that we find a nut.

Snow showers
My husband checked the mailbox this morning during the trips to the school bus stop. The mailbox was nut free. But this afternoon when he checked the mail there was a nut.
I'm at the office but he sent me the obligatory photo. And here it is.
He is convinced it is the mail carrier. But I asked the mail carrier and he denied it. I just don't think that guy would lie to me.
