Hang on a sec... I need more coffee... Okay, I'm back.
My Amazon order was supposed to be delivered yesterday. It was on an Amazon truck, headed this way. We waited. And waited. And when it got dark, we turned the porchlight on. At 9, we finally gave up, turned the light off and went to bed. This morning, Amazon says it's been delayed due to weather. No biggie. We did have one hell of a sploosher. Still, it would've been nice if they'd mentioned the possible delay yesterday afternoon. Sort of a 'hey, it looks like there's a possibility of our vehicle getting either blown off the road or submerged in the deluge, so we're probably not gonna make it' thing. Anyway, now they're predicting delivery on the 7th. Two days? The weather wasn't THAT bad. No swirly-whirlies or anything. :shrug: Yeah, there's nothing important in my order. Carving design stuff mostly. It's the idea that irritates me.
I wonder what all this rain is doing to my newly-planted carrot seeds. Eh, time will tell.
The coffee's not helping yet. I need a smoke. Hang on. Be right back... Okay. Thanks.
Yesterday, the neighbor kid was walking the road by himself. He's like 7, I think. He's a good kid and this is a fairly safe neighborhood, but we were concerned. I wasn't allowed to leave the yard by myself until I was 10. Of course, we did have those boys that got murdered about 10 minutes east of town when I was little. Maybe I worry too much. It's the grandmother genes I will never use poking their heads out, most likely.
Of course, after that, the episodes of the crime shows we wanted to watch seemed to be all about kids - one was cops tracking a pedophile ring, another one had a guy who'd murdered a kid. We settled on an episode of Harry Wild that only featured teens peripherally and none of them got hurt. Then we watched a true-disaster show.
I had planned on making my first cuts into woods yesterday, but it was so damn gloomy out that the light sucked out on the sunporch where I wanted to carve. Oh, well. The wood's not going anywhere.
Okay, I think that's it for me. Anything you want to add?
