Tap.... Tap.... Tap.....
I'm still waiting...at home...not going anywhere...all day...waiting for the freight company to deliver my shower door...in the appropriate number of pieces.
I tried to tempt the timing Gods too. You know, things tend to happen when it's not convenient such as when you are in the shower, or "using the facilities" or if you just stepped out for a second, or ran out to the mailbox. Well, I thought sure if I went down to the basement to roast some coffee, the truck would be backing in right at the point where I couldn't leave the roasting process. Sigh...nope, no truck.
At least I got some beans roasted out of the deal...;-D (Guatemala Barillas)
Tap.... Tap.... Tap.... Leo isn't feeling well. He was hanging around waiting for the delivery as well waiting for the grout to dry on the shower stall floor. Go home... that said, I really home they don't charge me to set this thing in on the hallway floor.
Tap...Tap....Tap....The town street dept scrapper guy came by bright and early this morning along with a load of gravel mixture to spread and compact over our "driveway". I suppose I could have done without the 2 foot long curb setting spike, though. It was easy enough to pick out of the gravel so I guess I won't complain.
Tap... Tap... Tap...I've futzed around for another 45 minutes; it's now 3:30pm. Yeah, they'll show at 4:59pm..last delivery of the day.
Have a fine weekend, all.....
Update: 4:40pm, I'm still waiting and I'm getting annoyed....
4:57pm, gggrrr
5:38pm...I do believe I am about to jump out of my skin and just maybe he doesn't really want to show up right now.
6:24...After I called and had to leave a message because HE was on the phone HE called me back. Yes, he sees it was set up for today but it's on Monday's schedule for some strange reason - 8am-8pm someone home all day. Um...NO, that is unacceptable, I did that for today, I need a delivery time now. HE couldn't give me a delivery time but he WILL have it delivered this evening as soon as he gets a driver. Sorry, someone has to work a we bit later this evening!....and Lord help them if it's broken!!!!!!!!!!

Don't you just hate when they have you waiting all day and you would think they would call the customer to say "we're still on our way". No, they can't.
Were all the pieces intact?
