susandennisThe one day I really want UPS to get here on time, they do not. It's 3 pm. A hair past their promised time of 10:45-1:45. Plus this means it's not the usual guy so he probably won't deliver to my door if he ever gets here.
Also I have a delivery coming via Fed Ex which is promised by End Of Day which is likely Monday.
Sigh.
On the other hand, The cat people have decided that my email can't handle PDFs so they sent me the Word Doc version of their report. After 4 emails from me asking for it. And, of course, it was not at all worth the effort. She repeated the jargon she gave me on the phone, told me not to do a bunch of stuff that I would never do anyway and recommended 6 different cat toys, 4 of which Biggie has and 1 was a food puzzle that sucked so badly I sent it back. Quelle waste of time. But, no big deal. I can, at least quit stressing about it.
I got the terrace cupboards emptied and still, I'm delighted at the relative smallness of the pile. I also got the sewing room turned into the guest room.
I learned today of a new Seattle Company founded by the woman who was the marketing directory for Wyze (my 'new Seattle Company' of a few years ago). Vilo does mesh routers that are attractive and cheap and work. I already have a mesh router but if I didn't, I'd be buying these for sure. I'm even tempted anyway.
I found bird feathers in the bathroom and Biggie's been back there a couple of times today so I'm guessing that's where the suicide bomber when this morning when he flew in. Ewww. At least, apparently, the bird action is confined to the morning. So far, once we get to noon, we seem to be bird free for the day.
Game tonight.
