I feel better now.

Best Buy to Worst Buy is not a bad slogan, but it does not make for a good customer experience.  Brian Dunn CEO of Best Buy, wonder if Brian is Done.

Day Seven, restart

Maybe.  After literally hours on the phone, I am told my camera lens has been repaired and should arrive  at my home address via UPS  on Monday.

In the mean time, I want everyone to be warned, Do NOT buy electronics from Best Buy.  I truly believe they have changed their name to Worst Buy.  Try www.WrostBuy.com and see if they answer.  AND, do not ever try to do business with  Geek Squad.  They have changed their name to the Goon Squad.

Actually, one of the techs at Geek Squad named Nick told me he, even while on their payroll, could NOT recommend Geek Squad services.  You know service is bad when the hired help recommend that you take your money elsewhere.

Lesson learned.  I will never again buy any products from Best Buy and I will never again use Geek Squad services.

And, Clayton has the Turkey Platter.  I used to see it at work every year at Xgiving.

Day Six

Was canceled due to operator error.

Day Five, back to the grind

For both me and George.  He said he went down to Frank's and cut a big dead tree down and did not get hurt.  As if that was not the norm.  Imagine that.

I was back to work today but things were still pretty slow.  Still don't know if I am going to have to break in a new boss or not.  Probably will not know until the end of the month.  I guess if I get a boss I do not like, I will just quit going to work.

It was a beautiful day.  I went after work today and got a perm.  Tomorrow, after work I am going shopping on Patsy's dime.  I think I will buy some pigs.  Or maybe some goats.  I have always wanted to raise goats.

Day Four

A beautiful day.  I think we topped 60 degrees today.  Did not do much. Too old, I guess.  I did take a nap in the afternoon which I almost never do anymore.  George was off working with his wood cutting.  I make fun of him for napping during the day so I would not want him to know that is what I was doing.

Tomorrow it is back to work, but only for two days.  Then, no more extra days off till probably spring.

I did talk to Clayton today.  I was afraid he would be busy on his exercise equipment and would not have time to talk, but that was not the case.

See ya.

Day Three

And counting.

Today was a lazy day.  I read an ebook, Don't Forget to Write by Pam Hobbs.  She was a ten year old child in England in 1940 when she and her sister were evacuated to a different area of England because of safety concerns during WWII.  I enjoyed the book because it told of experiences so different from anything I know of.   It was interesting to me and confusing to Pam that she and her sister were sent way across the country a days journey from her home while children close to where she ended up were evacuated over very close to her home.  Sounds like our government.

I did not enjoy the book by the Columbia captive very much.  I remember reading the book, Out of Captivity by her fellow captives and it was really interesting.  Somehow, this one was not nearly as interesting.

I think tomorrow I will go junking again over towards Berryville.  Today was much nicer than yesterday.  Today's high was 51 and low 18, yesterday was 37 and 25.  A year ago the high was 51, low 23.  So, now you know.   

I went for a walk over to the graveyard by the Stone place this after noon.  I stopped off and asked Clayton if he wanted to go along, but he had a tread mill and a exercise bike so he did not need to go walking.  I told him he could keep one foot on the tread mill and use the bike with the other foot and get double the effect.  I am sure that is what he was doing as I walked.

We saw two deer this morning down on Dan's eating acorns under the oak tree, three more this evening down in the corner across the road and two just across the fence from the salt block.  That is the most we have seen for several days.

Tomorrow, to the moon and back?  

Day Two

I went to Harrison today and took the road over by the turkey farm at the top of Morris Hill.  I think this is a young eagle.  Not sure, but it was all brown and I think it was too big to be a hawk.

This is an eagle on the left and a hawk on the right. 

And eagle.

A buzzard.

It was cold today.  The weather site says it got to 53, but it felt really cold.  There was lots of sunshine.

Not much going on here.  Just sitting, not doing.

First Day, 2012

Coming Up.

And, going down.

Today, I mostly did not.  I did cook the beans and ham, but did not cook anything to go with them like cornbread or the spinach I bought to cook today.  The beans were really good though.

I walked up on the hill this evening.  Saw a few white tails running off through the brush but nothing but the tails flashing through the trees.

I did not buy much junk yesterday.  I saw a few things, but resisted most.  I spent $1.20 and got a small candle and a candle holder for my new counter top.  George likes to burn candles to cover up the smell of the cigarettes he is not supposed to be smoking in the house.  He usually sets the candle in one of my bowls so it does not set directly on the counter top.  I got a new candle also, but it is too large for the holder I got for 80 cents.  I set the candle on a hot pot holder [trivet?]  I have on the counter.  But, since I am home, we have not had to burn candles today.

George has a bad cold.  It is the first time he has been sick in almost a year.  I wish it would go away.  When he gets sick, I am always afraid it will be really bad as he always has so much trouble with his breathing anyway.  He sounds a little better today but he does not feel much better.  It has been several days now and I think he is tired of being sick and just feeling bad in general.  It is a new year, maybe he will be a new George tomorrow.

I did buy 3 dollar books at the dollar store.  I have already threw one in the trash.  I read one by Charles Grodin, How I got to be whoever it is I am.  It was alright for a dollar.  I have now downloaded a book Even Silence has an End by Ingrid something or other.  She is a politician in Columbia South America that was held captive for years.  I remember reading a book about some Americans that were held captive for years down there.  They were captured with a woman political figure and they had some harsh things to say about her in their book.  I am wondering if this is the same woman but so far I am not sure.  I may have to go to google to find out.

Happy Year.
