I don't drink as much as I used to but with days like this. . .
I had to run some errands from work, one of which was renewing a bulk mail permit. I went to the local office, JUST AS THE LETTER SPECIFIED. I know the counter workers there; one in particular can be a little whiney when she doesn't want to do something outside her perceived scope of her job. So, it was NO surprise when she acted true to form. I reminded her of the address at the bottom of the letter & she said that didn't matter; the downtown office handles that. Not wanting to argue anymore, I left & went downtown. Long story short, the downtown office told me I needed to head back to the local office, which I did and after MUCH whining SHE ACTUALLY DID IT!!! Wonder of wonders!!!!!!
One of my duties includes paying the bills for the organization. Vendor checks are always due on Fridays, but I'm SO good I have them ready on Thursdays. Once checks leave my office, it's "out of sight, out of mind." So, I was clueless when people began calling looking for their checks. I call around, trying to track them down & NO ONE seems to know where they are! Now I'm wondering if I mailed them by accident which means going BACK to the post office--one of the LAST places I'd rather be. "Z" sent me an email saying Bev had picked them up earlier that day. I emailed her back & said good because I was wondering if I was losing what little mind I had left. She thought that was funny. At least I made someone happy. :D
The clock strikes 5 and I'm out the door. I live 10 mins away so there are no traffic jams to deal with & a very short commute. When I park the truck, I noticed a massive tree limb had fallen on our carport, twisting the metal like an aluminum can, which was lying on a truck which thankfully doesn't run, but Will's motorcycle was lying on its side. The tree belonged to the house next door to us. When Will contacted the owner, his attitude was basically "Sucks to be you." He told us OUR insurance coverage should take care of it. What th'???????
Really looking forward to tomorrow's run. I know many of you don't like running in Clinton, but I like it because it's sort of home for me. :) I've been too busy to hydrate today, so I'm gonna drink up (water only).
PEACE OUT!!!!!!

Oh-h-h, you gotta be glad this day is over! I have lived in 4 states and 6 cities within and the ONLY nice Post Office people I have encountered are in Madison, MS! In other cities I would go in armed with an attitude ready to take on those surly p.o. folks. I guess you know this, but the neighbor's ins. should pay for the damage. Glad no one was injured. LOVED your blog title! Have a good run tomorrow.
Wow, between your post office experience and the tree, you deserve those drinks!!!!
Sometimes it's the neighbors who suck! Hope you had a good run today! I missed seeing everyone.
