That's the fuzziest sentence in any divorce decree or order in suit affecting the parent-child relationship. It means that if she has to give you notice 30 days in advance, it is timely given if you get it on the 30th day in advance or if she mails if 30 days in advance and you get it a few days later.
It does not say HOW she has to send notice. It would serve her well to send notice in a way that she can prove that she "SENT" the notice--she does not have to prove that you received it.
