Tuesday morn. Another busy day ahead. Do I ever have anything else? I love being busy though. I worked for 50 years so I am used to it. There was a winter a few years back that was constant snow and ice, and I was stuck in because I was afraid of falling. I got so depressed. My cat was still alive and I found myself focusing on her every move, worrying that she was going to pass. She was almost 20. Fortunately, I had her for a few more years. She lived to 23.
I got a pleasant surprise yesterday when I went to the center. Food for Life was not canceled. They found some funding to hire her, at least until July. Hopefully, by then they will get the funding to keep her. Yesterday we made this delicious Two Bean Salad.
Black beans, pink beans, corn, red bell pepper, green bell pepper,
cherry tomatoes, lemon juice, olive oil, and Mrs. Dash seasoning.
I am missing a package. It was a very important package to me--a book with an autograph from the author. I waited so long for it, and now, who knows where it is. The super viewed the cameras to see who took it as it was scanned at our address, but as per the video sent me, it doesn't appear it ever made it into the house. When he enters he is only carrying envelopes. His full attention was not on delivering the
mail.
He was on the phone and walked right past our building, then left the
cart out of view, and came back to the building still on the phone. Talked a good 2
minutes when came entered. Then he opened our boxes and stood there
looking at them like he didn't know what to do. Put half the mail
in then back on the phone again. He finally finished with the mail and closed
the doors on the boxes. Started to leave, then came back to retrieve
the outgoing mail. Left again and was met by another mailman who told
him he had to come back and scan the boxes before he left. What a mess! My feeling is that he scanned my package and was so busy talking on the phone, that he forgot to bring it inside, and since the cart was out of view, someone walked off with it.
So I got a call last night from the post office. They found my package.
They said the wrong address was on there--865 rather than 864. I have
to question that. I ordered through PayPal and like Amazon, my address
is on record. The tracking even said 864 so I have to wonder. I'll see
when the package is delivered today.
Today I am off to the center. I don't usually attend on a Tuesday, but this afternoon they are having a class on Sciatica 101. Would not miss that....or the turkey dinner they are having for lunch.
Have a good one.
Glad they found your package!
ReplyDeleteSo am I. Don't know how that mistake was made.
DeleteThank goodness they found your package. :-)
ReplyDeleteFirst she said wrong address was on the package, then said he never delivered it. So what's the answer?
DeleteI am very glad that your package was found.
ReplyDeleteThat salad looks good too.
What a relief. I was just about ready to contact PayPal because the author wasn't responding to me.
DeleteThat is a very pretty any colorful salad. I bet it was yummy.
ReplyDeleteIt was delicious. Already planning to make it again next week.
DeleteIt been a while since I tried bean salad. But the food at the center does sound great.
ReplyDeleteBut I have to ask. Is senior center divided along political line? The reason I ask some one ask my husband if he was conservative or liberal?
It seem like third grade in there
Coffee is on
To be honest, I've not heard much political talk at the center. A lot of ex teachers who chat about the way schools used to be.
DeleteThat Salad sounds delish, Thanks for sharing what was in it! Workers being distracted on their Phones, isn't that so typical nowadays? I hope your package arrives okay this time around!?
ReplyDeleteI did get the package last night. It was just sitting in the post office after he couldn't find my apartment number at the address he tried to deliver it. Of course he couldn't. It was a private house. But had I not started an investigation, my package still could have been sitting there.
DeleteBeans, corn and bell pepper are among my favorites...your salad look "enticing".....colorful
ReplyDeleteHappy that your package was found
It was delicious salad. Will definitely make this again.
DeleteYay to finding your package!! I am just shaking my head at the mailman video though!!!
