Any MORE to ADD to THIS Day?

 Any MORE to Add to THIS Day?

 

Had groceries delivered this morning because the old woman did not want to lift and haul stuff from the truck to inside the house. Well, the “driver” of the delivery car was thoroughly ticked off and just dropped my groceries on the front sidewalk. When asked to put them on the porch, she left most of them on the sidewalk where she dropped them and put the two cases of water on the porch. Well, joy to the world! So, step up and down six or seven times to go get the groceries off the walkway and bring them inside. Have thought about telling United what this made me want to do. Can’t decide if they need to be told about this driver’s attitude or if it is just MY attitude that sucks. But, ya know, she got a tip from me along with whatever they pay her for her work. But she was griping that they take money out of her tips. Seems to me, if you don’t like a job as badly as she did, it’s time to get a different job.

 

My grocery order was mostly correct, but asked for some of those flavored drinks that don’t contain sugar. The Signature brand is not terribly expensive, but one of the flavors was not on the shelf, and the grocer who picked my stuff off the shelves substituted “tonic” water for the flavored kind. Really!! Bleah.

 

Went to the feed store to get loaded up on feed. They were plum out of the good pecans, but got some that were called “Trash” pecans. They are spicy! One of the kids will like those. Anyway, parked the truck in the carport and walked across the grass to the front of the house. Lo and behold, water was on the water meter. Got a leak. Called the plumbers and will see them sometime this evening—maybe. Then came inside and was washing my hands in the lavatory and bumped the shelf next to the lavatory and knocked down a big bottle of lotion. It landed on the thing that plugs the drain and that thing would not come back up. Now the plumbers have one more thing to do. Shaking my head and feeling plum disgusted.

 

Just went outside to see how things are going along. Told the plumber to feel free to cuss the idiot who planted that tree (me). The entire pipe broke off down in the dirt a way. We may have to have an entirely new line to the house. Lord help us! Maybe the plumber can at least restore water to the house tonight.

 

Tried a new sweater on Thompson this morning. It was too large. Asked Jenn if her Lab would wear it, but she said Luna acts as if she is in trouble if they put something on her like that. Poor pupper. Now there are two sweaters for large dogs sitting around here. Katy said that she did not like to use sweaters on the dogs she cares for. Can understand that. The dog has to be willing to let you dress it. And then the sweater has to come off if it gets wet. Oh well. Maybe someone will need a dog sweater or two.

 

It's good to know that God is on our side—at our backs, in front, alongside, and all around. He has the strength and will to do what is best for us. That is all we need to ask, and then give Him praise! Praise God that He helps us in all situations.

 

Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
