Not so long ago, Monday I guess, FedEx announced that a signature-required package would be arriving here today on, if memory serves, something like the usual delivery schedule, i.e., early morning to early afternoon.
Here's what they show now:
Scheduled delivery:
Wednesday, June 30, 2021 by end of day
OK, then. Today, eventually. The regular delivery (with a box from Wally World) showed up around 0930, but I suppose they can send a second truck.
What's the detailed tracking info show?

Er. Arrived twice, then departed, then arrived again.
I hope it arrives today. Got errands to run tomorrow morning (ahead of an approaching storm), and I don't really want to blow them off so's I can stay here and sign for a package. Staying close to the house today isn't exactly convenient either; there's stuff I need to be doing out around the yard.
... Meanwhile, an Amazon package (via USPS) that was scheduled for yesterday seems to have gone into hyperspace - Amazon says it's on its way but running late, but the tracking information is almost perfectly uninformative.
Update: It's getting into evening now, and status on both shipments remains as it was this morning. I don't think the package-requiring-signature will be arriving before the end of today.
And, tomorrow morning's intended errands have been preempted; there's another errand I gotta run instead, leaving Joy to sign for the package if it shows up while I'm out. Looks like... Tuesday is probably the morning for what would have been tomorrow's outing. Maybe Saturday, but more likely Tuesday.
Update 2: Here it is Thursday morning, and FedEx is now saying that the package will be arriving by the end of today; the tracking information, meanwhile, shows it having progressed all the way from Lenexa to Dodge City, but not yet having gotten out of Dodge.
Status of the errant Amazon package, meanwhile, remains perfectly uninformative. Like, it shows as "shipped" and then "delayed", but maybe it hasn't actually been handed off to the USPS yet?
Update 3: As of 0935 Thursday, it's still in Kansas; latest forecast is for delivery Friday.
Update 4: As of 0435 Friday, it's supposed to be arriving between 0910 and 1310 today. Yay! But tracking now says:

I will not buy this record; it is scratched.
Meanwhile, the aforementioned Amazon shipment still shows Delivery Delay, with the last update having been Tuesday morning. Did some rascal abscond with my garden-hose disconnects, pressure-washer soap, and metric Zerk fittings? Is the package hiding in the bushes outside a post office somewhere?
Update 5: As of Saturday morning, delivery is scheduled for Monday, and the package has escaped the loop and made its was to Nashville and thence to Knoxville.
I suspect some sort of BGP error, whereby the Lenexa facility's routing table became corrupted and indicated that Tennessee was west of Kansas until either the false entry expired or someone cycled power.
And, the Amazon shipment's status remains unchanged since Tuesday. I think it got lost without actually having been handed off to the USPS.
Update 6: As of early Saturday afternoon, the FedEx package is here. If it also arrives Monday, I'm gonna be seriously confoozed.
