Waking
just after 6:00 this morning I thought that by turning over I might
get a bit more sleep but it didn’t happen. By 6:23 I was once again
doing research on the Computer. I had heard of a few more
Companies that might just have what we needed. Since Kathy and
I had talked about this last night as soon as my cereal was finished
I was on my way headed for LaSalle.
The
first place that I went to the young woman looked like she was out of
a Fashion Magazine and looked put out by my inquiry. The next
place in Windsor’s west end
must have recently expanded and that Receptionist was in the
middle of organizing File Cabinets in an almost empty office.
The third place had me filling in an application of sorts so that
when they finally have some they would call me.
I
took the Expressway over to
Central Avenue and found the
business that was closed when Kathy and I were there yesterday to be
open. I was told they were there from 7:00 until 1:00 Monday to
Thursday. (How do they make any Money?) This was also the
business that hadn’t called me back. When I told him what I needed
he quoted me an unrealistic price and said that he would call me when
it was available.
I
wasn’t giving up. Back on the Expressway
to Twin Oaks Drive
another Company had me fill in a form with a description for
what I wanted and if they have one available they would call me.
Feeling
a little discouraged I went over my list calling places that I’d
already gone only to get more negative replies.
Driving
in the direction of Home I tried other places along the way
that I was correct in assuming they couldn’t help me but took my
request anyways.
There was a company that I had driven by many times in the past month and Twice today. On the Third time going by I stopped in just to check it out. The receptionist didn’t think they had any so I was heading back to the Truck when the Owner called me back. Just this morning his manager had suggested what I was looking for and since I had just inquired would I look at what they were thinking of. I was there almost Two Hours giving my opinion and making suggestions. What I want will be there on Thursday.
When
I got Home just after 1:00 Kathy
was just thinking of having lunch. She knows how determined I can be
and that was why I was late. When I told her the News she was
as happy as I was.
Since
neither of us were really hungry we simply had Tomato Soup for
lunch and a Yogurt Cup for dessert.
I
spent nearly Half Hour cleaning up my E-Mail from all
the Ads that had been sent to me while searching for what I
needed. Because I made the first contact these are not Spam
but I made certain to Unsubscribe them so that I won’t have
to put up with more unwanted Ads.
It’s
been a while since I’ve written to our good friends Wayne and Sue
from Washington state. We have
spent the last Three Winters as neighbours and enjoyed
Christmas Dinner with them the last Two. There keeping
busy and like us can’t wait to get back to Quartzsite.
When
the Clouds started filling the sky around 5:00 I went out to
grill a couple of All Natural All Beef Hotdogs while Kathy
microwaved the last Two Ears of Corn as a side. She also
served us each a piece of Honey Date Squares for dessert.
Unlike the regular Date Squares these were a little trickier
to get out of the pan because the Honey makes it stick.
Just before the Rain started. |
We
had just finished eating when the sounds of Distant Thunder
could be heard. I just managed to cover over the Weber up and get
inside when the first drops started hitting our Windows. It
Rained for nearly an Hour adding another Quarter
Inch in our Gauge.
At
least I can sleep later in the morning but we have a List
of things to do. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.
