Let it Stop Let it Stop…

I'm kind of bummed, I left 80 some degree weather for this….

 

Dec 2009 snow

This picture was stolen from my sister's FB page because I left my camera in Florida (I should have left myself in Florida.)

I will enjoy my family at Christmas but certainly not this weather!  Hey, Mom you were wise to stay in the south!

Supervising is Tiring

I watched Mr "P" plant two tomato plants, two blueberry plants and one tangerine tree today.  Supervising is hard work, it must be because I'm tired.

 

 

Tomato

 

Blueberry

 

Tangerine

Mom and I made a Sonshine (no its not misspelled, son as in the Son of God) basket for a lady in our neighborhood whom we have never met but her husband stops by our house while walking his dog and talks to Mr "P" .  Mr "P" was telling me the man's wife is very sick with cancer.  I hope the little gifts and the Bible verses bring her some comfort and some happiness.

Reminded

Our Ladies Sunday School class is supposed to put up the Christmas tree in the church hall today.  I'm the youngest lady in our class by at least 10 years.  When I watch some of these ladies I feel like the oldest physically.  I was telling Mr "P" about this, this morning and feeling a little sorry for myself.  I have arthritics in my spine, knees and both feet.  I was thinking if I didn't go some would think I was just being lazy and if I did go I would feel bad for not helping as much as others.  Mr "P" said honey you should go God knows what you can do and that's what matters.  He made me feel better and you know he is right, God's grace is sufficient for me!  Sometimes I just need to be reminded.

Man’s Best Friend

 

Bud and Pep 001

After church this morning I asked Mr P if he would go to the store and buy three steaks so we could invite mom over for lunch too.  While he was at the store I got the baked potatoes and broccoli ready and mom started the charcoal grill.  When Mr P returned home with the steaks I unwrapped them and found four beautiful T-bones.  I laid out three steaks so I could season them and wrapped one up to save for the next day.  Mr P came by and asked where the other steak went, I said I was saving it.  He said I was to cook it too because he had bought it for Peppy and Buddy to share.  I guess dogs really are a man's best friend!

Slightly Bitter Satisfied Customer

My stove door front fell off 14 months after buying it.  It was a Sears Kenmore product, I have bought Kenmore products in the past and have had no problems with them, until this electric stove.  What an adventure trying to talk to someone at Sears to get my stove fixed.  The first two days were spent trying to talk to the store manager , lets see, first he just stepped out he will be back in fifteen minutes, I said I would call back.  Next call, sorry he is out on the floor ( I was thinking maybe someone should try and wake him up).  Next call, sorry he is in a meeting, can I have him call you back, yes, never heard from him!  I wait a day still no call.  Next day I call again,  sorry he is in a meeting, can I have him call you, no, I would like the number for the Sears regional office, sorry we don't have that number (sure right).  Would you like to speak with manager in the appliance department, sure, thank you.  Hello How may I help you.  I explain how stove fell apart.  You will have to call the service department.  No, because I'm not going to pay for fixing a stove that falls apart after 14 months.  Sorry but your stove is out of warranty, I realize this but a stove should not fall apart after 14 months of minimal use.  If this stove is not fixed to my satisfaction I promise you I will never buy from sears again, I have been a loyal sears customer for over forty years.  I'm sorry there is nothing I can do You will have to call the service department.  I call service department, we are sorry your stove is out of warranty we will be glad to send a repairman out to fix it.  No, I'm not paying for a stove that falls apart after only 14 months.  Were sorry you feel that way, click.  Call Department manager back again, he promises he will find something out and call me back later, next day I was still waiting.  I called him back, oh sorry the service department was supposed to call you, you need to talk with them directly, but I have already talked with them I know what they are going to say, but ok I'll call again.  I call service department, same run around , ask to speak to a higher up, put on hold for over 15 minutes, while on hold get a call back from department manager asking me if he sent me a gift certificate for over the cost of the part I needed to fix the stove if that would be satisfactory, I thanked him for taking care of the matter and said I would accept it.  Now, if the gift certificate comes in the mail I will buy the part and fix the stove, but I shall remain a slightly bitter satisfied customer.  Customer service has become customer aggravation!
