Broken Stuff

Image
It seems like the last couple weeks is about broken stuff. Angie was rear ended on her way to work. The car is broken. The refrigerator also decided to croak. Trying to catch up, gain back lost ground. We have a new car, very similar to the rudely smashed up car. I had it shipped from Texas. Also have a new a new fridge and backup freezer and fridge. Spring is very sprung. The pollen seems worse that usual this year. In Atlanta we complain about the traffic and the pollen, neither one is really as bad as we say.

New Driveway! and Contemporary Logistics

Another couple pics of my new driveway going in on the farm. I dont know about you all, but I get package deliveries and I have no idea of what they are when they arrive. I seem to have some dual thinking. I am usally thinking "where is that thing? Did I order it? Did I plan things right?" And at the same time the stuff I am "waiting on" arrives before I am really waiting. The parcel delivery thing is so fast these days it seems crazy. I can see the discussion of the future (maybe now). "Whadaya mean--- I ordered that blanked-blank DAYS ago! I can't belive these delays!" Maybe I am just of the generation where we mailed in a bunch of box-tops from cereal boxes (to places like Battle Creek Michigan) and had to wait something like 9 weeks for essentially a cracker jack toy--- even if "cracker jack toy" has meaning anymore.
