Well, a good Saturday morning to you all. This is my version of Friday. I have four (4) days off beginning around 7(PM) this evening. To celebrate, I've already begun separating my laundry.
I didn't receive a response from the VA yesterday, so I'll call them again this morning. While the process is frustrating at times, I must admit applying pressure to force them into activity is not unsatisfying. Perhaps this is a result of my years in customer service, knowing which pins and needles work for customers to get what they want provides me with an advantage. Truly, I do believe we should all enjoy injecting responsibility into those who fail to understand their irresponsible actions can have an effect on many, many people. I will jab them a little more in an hour or so with another voice mail; they're closed on weekends.
We've begun selling a new hardwood product: Malibu Wide Planks. It's very grainy with a matte finish. I wouldn't put it in my house because I have dogs. The graininess, you know? There are so many little pores waiting to trap dirt. Kids have the same problem, except kids don't run through shit... well, sometimes they do.
As I leave work this evening, I'll see if they've gotten any of the veggie plants in I'm looking for. Scores of lawn tractors and gas grills are waiting to be sold, a beefsteak tomato plant? Nope. No pepper plants, either. And I thought this year I might do eggplant as well. Of course, there is the possibility I may a bit over anxious to put things in the ground. Perhaps I should demonstrate a little restraint and follow this chart.
I think term limits for SCOTUS is good, or a mandatory retirement age.
ReplyDeleteIn the case of Clarence Thomas, a literacy test, or test for dementia; in the case of Kavanaugh, a BAC test administered daily.
I believe this should apply to all judges. There should be no thing as a lifetime position.
Deletethe SCOTUS thing is just a study with recommendations, nothing more at this time. I do believe in term limits; that would force shit like thomas off after say 10 years.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but it's making conservatives gag, like their choking up a hairball.
DeleteI just blogged about the vegetable plants I bought (from a Lowe's...sorry...they're the closest store) and I was sad at the lack of selection and the way the good stuff was sold out! Of course we're fine to plant this far south already and everything was really picked over. I bought some seedling cucumber plants that just had one set of true leaves and almost no roots yet. But I got most of what I needed, so no big deal.
ReplyDeleteI hope they do SOMETHING to address the Supreme Court shenanigans the GQP got up to in the last four years!
I'll be honest, the selection is terrible this year. People did all sorts of things they don't normally do last year, so you're telling me they didn't seed plants at greenhouses?
