Hello Friday!

We have had a busy week and I had it all planned out, but that got all turned around! My husband had ordered a new guitar that required signature upon delivery so that threw off my auction pick up on Thursday. We were hoping that it would come in Wednesday since he got notification that the shipment would come in early, but that didn't happen. So today, we waited for this delivery and it did not come until around 4 pm. The package was left out down the driveway by his truck. No signature. He will be advising the company about that later today. We are going to try to get out of the house early and hit a big warehouse sale along our route to pick up auction stuff this afternoon. This was on my agenda for Friday to do, but not in addition to a trip to the Jackson area too! We are going to try to make it work. Otherwise, we will go back to the warehouse sale Saturday. Other than that I have been unloading my vehicle from last week's auction and unpacking things to get them ready to tag and go to the flea market. What have you been up to this week?

That always throws things off when you have to wait for something, then it is postponed, or doesn't happen as planned. Sounds frustrating!

Yes, ended up Fed Ex just dropped it off in the yard and did not get a signature! Always crazy when Fed Ex is in the picture here. Worst delivery in our area.

I would be so annoyed with the signature situation too. I had a dental consult Monday, dental work done Wednesday, and then today I have a doctor’s appointment followed by a visit with a technician for my internet at my apartment. A really big week. Lol

That wasn't too worrisome, just not knowing when they were coming pretty much screwed up plans. And then we found it out in the yard just dropped off no signature; they didn't even come to the door. Idiots!!

Everything fit in the back of the SUV perfectly. I even squeezed in an extra 30-40 books going to the dumpster.

Yes, after today I'll be resting and hanging around the house. I have some laundry to catch up on and a project or two in my house to get started on.

Hopefully your day goes well and you're able to get things done. My week has been fairly busy. With work and getting the kids back to school. But it's Friday and looking forward to the long weekend.

Yes, he will be doing that. Their customer service is pretty good. They have called him a couple of times already and send several emails. Oh, and their was a thank you gift stuck in his order, a small bag of candy that I snagged!!

Guess for me it means to keep saying my morning and evening prayers. I was thinking Oh, weel at least tomorrow my SS arrives. I have the dates circled for each month in my calendar and always on a Saturday. So I sigh and think let me look at my balance to be ready for tomorrow," and guess what? My SS arrived today. Praise the Lord the waiting is over and I got my groceries a day early Of course, I thanked all concerend in the heavens. On top of that I was looking forward to rodering a super duper fan and the Walmart site said on the one I wanted one left but I put in my order and I got it so sitting here singing Heaven, I am in heaven,

That guitar delivery really threw off your plans and how frustrating that they just left it without a signature, Hope you can get everything done you want to do for the flea market. My week was pretty routine but I'm looking forward to a family barbecue on Sunday. Can't believe it's already Labor Day weekend.

Yes, amazing that it is Labor Day already. We may as well plan out our Thanksgiving because it will be here before we know it...and Christmas too!

I am glad he walked outside when he did. We had thunder looming and it was about to break with rain at any minute. That is when he found the package in the yard. They didn't even bother coming to the door and forget the signature required, that was way too much trouble. I hope they lose this companies' business or at least in this state.

These deliveries are so frustrating. They always seem to manage to call when I've gone to the shops

Nope! I learned a few chords way back in the day, but never took lessons and carried it through.
