Thanks. It unfolded very quickly. I may be a trippin’ bitch (driver’s description to his manager) but I’m an alive, undamaged tripppin bitch. He almost wasn’t. Note- there were no apologies, from anyone. No Ma’am’s, no manners. That’s not the Texas I’ve lived in for nearly 40 years.
As I read this, I’m thinking of the coffee cup I bought at the Alamo. It has a picture of the Alamo on one side, a cannon and “Come and take it” on the other side. That Alamo spirit runs deep in the very essence of a Texan. You stood your ground, “Come and take it” from this trippin’ bitch. My heart swells with pride in you. Your back was up and you were ready, if pushed, to defend yourself. Those two just didn’t know how close they came.

On second cup of coffee. Flipped 2 boards over in the utility room and painted other side with Kilz. It will be dry in a few hours and I can paint them. I have boards ready to install for another shelf in the small utility room today. Getting there.

I may have never ran 5 miles. Probably 12 years since I did any running/jogging. I wonder why I can't breath and I'm so out of shape. :lol: I run out of breath doing 10 pushups.:th Yea I wish I was kidding. Funny how I can run a 7" grinder for 12 hrs a day 7 days a wk, yet can't jog to the mail box. I keep saying I should start then I will be able to. Saying only doesn't get er done.
:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
Not going to say it is always easy, or getting started is easy. But maybe I came out of my last County Fair feeling like I lost something, and had a couple hours to fill. And maybe I decided that I would train for a half marathon, and then was asked if I would ever run a full marathon. Sometimes I accidentally get wild ideas, and figure that there is no better time in my life to accomplish them.

Maybe some day you will work full time, maybe some day you will marry and maybe some day you will have children and maybe some day you will be juggling all of that with precious little time for the things you are doing now. And maybe you will smile and be glad you grabbed opportunity when it came knocking on your door.

Exactly Bay, no better time then the present time to chase this stuff. I won't have the body and joints I have now, in twenty years, so regardless of what happens then, there's no reason to let this time go to waste. In twenty years if I can look back realize I truly went for it when I could, I hope it is all worth it. I really can't think of a better time then the present, to chase these goals.

Report them to the place you bought it from.
We were using American Homeshield who in my experience chooses the rock bottom cheapest contractors. I will notify them but I don’t think anything will come of it. I checked the delivery company and found it is an offshoot of the big name freight hauler I recognized. They do some installations. This could have been avoided if the driver had identified himself as an installer, immediately unloaded the cooktop (thus proving he actually had it) and dropped the hoodlum attitude. For all I knew the truck was stolen and this was a planned home invasion with the “manager” as an accomplice. Next time it’s 911. I’m too old for this. Oh. I’m expecting a tv next week…:hide:th

Just saw a video clip on news in Los Angeles where a coyote attacked a 2 yr old!! Broad daylight, in driveway of a housing area! It grabbed her butt and tried to pull her off...mouth full of diaper and dad right there, grabbed her. 😲. Video on house cam.

Brazen animals!!! They will definitely go after lambs, kids, etc. Especially when in a pack.

They will also work to separate or distract a team of LGDs. They’re amazing but I don’t want to feed them.
