Happy for a Long Weekend :)

September 4th, 2011 at 02:28 am

First I'd like to mention that I finally updated my Living frugal blog (actually two updates since I last mentioned it here.)

---Silly kitty! I had almost finished the above sentence when all of the sudden my computer started shutting down! Kari had started chewing on the edge of my computer - where the power button is - and managed to hold it down enough to shut it off!

----------------------
I took my car to a tire/mechanics place here in town (the only one here) and had them check my tire pressure. According to them, the pressure is just fine. So the little twerp who let air out of my tire(s) didn't let out too much. Whew!

While I was there waiting, I sat next to a Navajo woman who was *extremely* talkative. She was telling me all about these conspiracy theories. That Nasa is trying to keep the repercussions of this new planet that was recently discovered hush hush. (Something like Nubari or Nbaro ...) The reason for all the disturbances we've had the last few years (earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, etc) has been this planet system getting closer and closer.
She kept up talking for an entire 30 minutes.

Interesting.

----
I ordered several books from Amazon. One arrived already on Friday. The one that arrived though, has an interesting story. It had two delivery attempts -- to the post office. Apparently no one was there to receive it at 10 a.m.

Just have to laugh. Smile

---
I found out last night that Kari (my cat) LOVES spinach. I was eating a Spinach Souffle and she was *absolutely determined* that she was going to get some. I'd never seen her quite like that. I finally had to put her out of the room and close the door so I could finish my food in peace.

I'm planning on click training her. I already know several commands I'll be teaching her -- OFF and Leave It!!! Big Grin

----
I stopped at Walgreens after church today to pick up my Synthroid. They were out of stock!! Seriously??? So that means I'll have to either wait till I go into town again on Friday, or make an extra trip on Tuesday or Wednesday.

-----
No school Monday, so only one really crazy day next week. (Tuesday) Then the next weekend I'll be going to CA for my grandmother's 90th birthday - will be taking Friday and Monday off. Then the next two Friday's we have Teacher In-service days. I feel bad for my 5th grade boys and the 6th graders - they'll be missing 3 weeks in a row of computer/library. (There is no one to sub for me when I'm gone - if I'm gone, they just don't have the special class.)

    Just a note about the Amazon book delivery for why they might been delivering it to the post office. About a year ago, I ordered something online. The standard delivery is UPS ground, so when I got an email when the shipping tracking info indicating it was at the post office, I called because that was confusing. They told me it is something new they are doing with UPS shipping in order to save money so they don't have to drive to each individual house to deliver. Then, whoever delivers your mail delivers the package. Just thought you might like to know.

    Oh I know why they are delivering to the PO. We don't have home delivery here -- only a PO box. Very small town life. Big Grin
