HAH!

I was just getting my gear on to go out and I got an alert on the phone from Walmart saying my order was ready for pick-up.

It took almost 30 minutes to get the snow and ice off the windows and the doors. And then I couldn’t find my flashlight so I couldn’t figure out how to get the defroster on...the dash lights don’t work since the heater core was replaced, but he didn’t seem in a hurry to correct the problem.

Anyway, I didn’t even have time to turn on the GPS so Walmart could tell when I was there, and I had to call them. Boy this was a cold morning for an experiment! However, I found my way home on the shortcut a little easier because it was light out, and I knew the road I wanted was opposite the golf course.

The good thing is that a light has been installed at that intersection since the last time I went to Walmart — last week. And it was green in my direction!

The little gal was personable enough and even showed me how to schedule a delivery. Painless. It may happen sooner than I think, though...

Congratulations on your successful excursion. I walked out to the mailbox to mail the house payment. That may be my only outing for the day!
