All Over The Place

I paid Lowes for a propane stove which came in on a container from the mainland. It was supposed to arrive on the 11th, but they didn’t have it ready for delivery until Friday. I added a bathroom vanity to the delivery order and emailed the salesman with the address. He may not have gotten the email because Lowes didn’t show up Friday. I called and after 20 minutes of checking they said that the delivery person called me on Thursday, leaving a voicemail for delivery instructions.

So my sitting at the delivery location for 8 hours yesterday was pretty much a waste. I also missed lunch. I hung some curtains but that was about 1/2 hour of time. I am reading this neighbors farmhouse for rental until he and his wife get back out here late this year.

So I went to bed early Friday night, having only had 4 or 5 hours sleep Thursday night. Then waiting all day and participating in a pot luck dinner took a toll on me. It is 2:30am Saturday as I write this.

The limo company in town had a disk drive failure (an SSD for you techy types) and I was unable to recover any data. Luckily they don’t store much on the system. Now they have purchased a Windows 10 system because they needed a replacement instantly. I will head up later today and install the system and set up their software and links to their remote database.

Later tonight a neighbor is scheduled to tile the floor of that farmhouse and move a different toilet in and change out the fixtures. I guess I’ll schedule the vanity and stove for delivery Tuesday now, even though the renters are supposed to start on Monday. They said they can make do. I’ll be there to help with the tiling.

I had been looking for a specific exercise equipment and finally found someone on Maui with it for sale for $200. Although

I am trying to get my garage torn down and trees trimmed but that will have to wait a few days.

I thought retirement was supposed to be relaxing.
