I tend to get frustrated very quickly
You people don't notice it, but Jackie does.
I had two frustrating experiences.....which now seem minor in comparison to the problems people have.
I brought the outside Christmas lights up and started hanging them. I took each set and tested it. Then I put them on the bushes. Two sets did not completly light. They lit last year, otherwise I would not have put them away. So how do they go bad when they are not even used?
So I went to the store for more lights. WM did not have any, but our local Ace had a great sale...buy one strand of 100, get one free. So I bought one.
I hung the lights and they all lit up the first time, the second time....on strand had half its lights out! How does that happen?
I know there are little fuses that I can replace, but in the past that has never been succesful for me either.
I hang garland on the porch railings. This crap cost $40 per strand new and over the years the lights obn 5 of the seven died. I pulled the old lights off last year and wrapped them with new lights.
This year, another strand died. So I went back to the store for more lights.
Tonight we tried to order something on line. I went to check out....and the little wheel started spinning. And spinning. And spinning. I exited, ordered again, same result.
After the third time I called and talked to a wonderful lady who called me Terry every time she addressed me and said thank you every time I answered a question. I assume she was not from the states.
She went to process my credit card and ....... she had trouble because the system was busy.
It must have been a good sale.
After a few minutes, she apologized and said it was now working, so my order was placed.
So here I am, past 11 and I am having a strong hot toddy. I hope it relaxes me and puts me in the mood to sleep.....but I doubt it.
Have a happy Thanksgiving. Don't eat too much. Don't be a turkey and get stuffed!!
Peace and Love
