Some Days are Like This

We got a return code from Amazon for the printer cartridge package – which meant we had to drive to Ft. Smith to the UPS Store. My husband decided he wanted to take the Vette. We got to Greenwood and the ‘check engine’ light came on. We talked about it, and decided to go back home and regroup.

My husband thought we should just each take a vehicle and we could leave the Vette at the service place in Ft. Smith. I reminded him that we had to have an appointment the last time we needed them to look at things. We called and are now scheduled to take it in next Wednesday morning.

We got into the truck and started out again. Of course the “70% chance of rain” kicked in. We had lots of traffic, pretty heavy rain, road construction, etc., but we got to the UPS Store and left the package with no problem. My husband thinks he ordered the right printer cartridges this time, so hopefully that will soon be a PAST problem.

On the way home, we decided to try the new Waffle House that opened recently in Greenwood. We each had a “hashbrown bowl with sausage, egg and cheese.” It was good, but we decided that the next time we go, we’ll order ONE of those and two bowls. It was too much food and was pretty expensive for a breakfast or lunch for us. Dividing one order should work just fine.

It’s STILL raining two hours after we started out this morning and shows no sign of letting up.

My husband is going to use the diagnostic tool he has for automobiles and see if it will tell us why the Vette is displaying the ‘check engine’ light.

And so the day goes.

Thoughts on a Thursday 7-1-2021

We are overcoming some challenges here this morning. Our mailman drove up to hand-deliver our mail this morning because we got a package of toner cartridges we ordered. When we tried to replace the cartridge we needed in our color printer, it didn’t fit. After some research my husband was going to reorder, and we were setting up to return and replace.

I asked about paperwork, and my husband produced a copy of the order. I read it carefully and discovered he had ordered for our Brother black and white, rather than our HP Color printer. He was just about to order when I mentioned that. He would have made the same mistake again, so it was worth it, even though he was exasperated by my interruption. Once we get this out of the way, we can get on with our day.

We’re due to get rain today. We were due yesterday, but only got a few drops. It’s quite overcast, so who knows? I plan to start painting the “Belly Vested Whapadoo” today. My husband re-welded the head back on, and I finished cleaning him, so I can start re-painting him today.
