Wow.. the traffic is horrendous today! I think it is because people stayed in yesterday because of the weather... man..
A trip, which should have taken me an hour, took me twice as long!! so crazy..
I did have the car windows open; found a radio station which had a Beatles Brunch! so I blasted the car radio!! The sun is shining.. 58 degrees, 2 windows halfway open, wind blowing my hair; I was singing along.. grooving to the music.. I needed that.
Tried to find the local UPS store. Found the location, but they moved, without a forwarding address!! I was not a happy camper!! The others I found, not in my city, were all closed today (Sunday). Man, I really wanted to ship off the Bose dock. I ended up at my local Staples. They have a UPS shipping station. I asked if they packaged items to ship. They only wrap in Bubble Wrap....nothing else!!! RIP OFF..
I was not happy. The choice was either to wait until tomorrow, search out another UPS store, or just suck it up and wrap it myself. I chose the latter.
While I was at Staples, I got a box, some more bubble wrap, and another roll of packing tape. I had already wrapped the doc in some bubble wrap, but not enough to ship..
Came home, wrapper that sucker up.. taped the box together.. so much tape and bubble wrap.. That dock ain't moving at all!! And I still have more bubble wrap and packing tape leftover!!
I will just return to Staples tomorrow and ship it off.
I have the radio on, drinking some flavored sparkling water, windows open a bit, and had a handful of nuts.. just boiled a couple of eggs.. one for my supper, in a salad. I was thinking of Tuna, but Artie is so bad about me eating fish. I just cannot do it. Maybe I will give him a treat..
