Order cancelled

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 9h

Got a text just now about my Walmart order that never came. Sorry, we had to cancel your Walmart order due to a shipment issue. What shipment issue? It was delivery from store. Logged into my Walmart account and it says the...

Where is my Walmart order?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 20 Jun

I placed a Walmart order on Tuesday. I remember selecting my mother’s address as the delivery address, but after I placed the order and received the confirmation email, it said that the package will come to me instead. I...

Water and drain problems

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 15 Jun

When I was washing dishes in the kitchen sink today I noticed that the water would accumulate and once I turned it off it would drain but very slowly. I took a drain snake and put it into the drain to see if it would bring...

Did you know this?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 12 Jun

Here in NYC, instead of saying “Hi” people will say “How are you?” to you. That doesn’t mean that they actually want you to tell them how you are doing. It’s just their way of being friendly and saying hello to you. I did...

Tough decision to make

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 9 Jun

I went back to see the 2-bedroom / 2-bathroom condo apartment that is not far from where I live. I seem to like it a little better than I did the first time. I would repaint the walls, but aside from that I don’t think that it’s a...

Prices automatically changed

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 8 Jun

I never re-uploaded the book files for my four books so the prices for my books have automatically been changed. They are priced much higher now which I don’t like. And weirdly enough those book projects are not in draft status...

Not happy with Walmart

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 7 Jun

I ordered toilet paper and coffee from Walmart. I thought they’d come together but no. Toilet paper is delivery while coffee is delivery from store. The toilet paper already came. Instead of putting it by the door they put it by...

Hot here

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 5 Jun

It’s in the mid-80s here and though I don’t want to be home I really don’t want to venture out anywhere because it takes a long time for me to get to a bus or a train. And I certainly don’t want to wander the streets. But being...

I am shocked

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 4 Jun

I saw videos of this female on Instagram where she talks about things she does to save money and I was quite shocked. I wonder if these things are actually true. One thing the family does is everybody uses the same toothbrush. No...

Have a buyer but nothing to buy

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 3 Jun

Since we put the house on the market there has been only one person to see it and I have no idea why. Perhaps the price turned people off from seeing it. Luckily, the one person that saw it wanted it. That’s great news, however,...

So this happened…

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 31 May

I was walking from my house to the train today and while walking I was using the Maps app on my phone to figure out how to get to a park I was going to with my mom. I passed under a little tree and next thing I knew felt...

What’s the point of Siri?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 26 May

I ask Siri for the weather. First, it tells me to unlock my phone. After I do that, it tells me I have to turn on my location services. I don’t get it. I should not need to unlock my phone for her to tell me the weather. It’s...

It was not cranberry juice

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 25 May

I went to Trader Joe’s last week to buy their cranberry juice. It’s 100% juice. No water, no sugar, nothing but cranberry juice. It’s tart and delicious. If I had to choose what cranberry juice to buy I would always buy theirs. I...

Can’t make this up

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 21 May

Our Russian grocery store has a club card. You use it to get discounts on items that are on sale. If you are a senior citizen there’s a special card for that that gives you more discounts on certain days of the week on certain...

Too hot here

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 19 May

It’s in the 90s today and tomorrow is the same thing. I didn’t venture outside today and I do not intend to do it tomorrow either. I don’t really have a need to go anywhere, and I do not want to subject myself to the heat and the...

Payment glitch

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52280) • Staten Island, New York 15 May

In April, I paid my mom’s mortgage for her on the mortgage’s website. While doing that it didn’t show that the payment went through so I paid it again. When I looked to see if there are any scheduled payments, the payment appeared...

Another bust

My realtor took me to look at some condo apartments for sale in a new building not far from where I live. It was built in 2025. It’s close to the train and there is a bus nearby as well. Also the library and a grocery store....
