We will deliver between the times of 8am and 8pm.
Filed under GeneralOct 13I am currently a prisoner in my own house just because 3 mobile can’t give an exact time to deliver my partners mobile. It’s now 12.00pm and I am only 4 hours into my sentence.
Regular readers to this blog might know I was planning to move to the countryside – well I have and it is making this waiting even worse. It’s a beautiful day outside, the leaves are starting to turn, the sky is a glorious shade of blue and I’m stuck playing freecell, settling old bills and doing housework.
All these things do need doing (bar computer based card games) but at the same time they are all things that can really wait until another day. I’ve called up 3 customer services and they’ve been about as helpful as a throwing a drowning man two ends of a rope. I have no way of getting the delivery number as Ellie is in Exeter without any means of communication and I need the delivery number to find out the delivery time. They offered to text the delivery number to the account holder , hmm, one flaw in this plan, they are delivering the account holders phone!
Grrrr!
Well I’ve just made a squirrel sculpture out of all the hazelnuts I’ve been collecting this year.That killed some time.
I’m ahead with work, I’ve got nothing due until January, I could pitch some ideas but that would require a mind free of distractions, such as looking at the window every time I hear a vehicle slow down. As I live on a crossroads that seems to be every five minutes. In fact I took a look at ‘ahead with work’ and ‘every time I hear’.
I might as well use this time to say – I am available for commission, editors please leave a comment on the blog, I won’t publish it but I will get back to you. At least that will give me something to do next time I have to wait in!
I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
I’ve got a patch of land I want to work on, it’s nothing but bramble at the moment and I want to get clearing.
I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
It’s a beautiful day, I could just walk up the lane at the back of the house.
I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
Apples and nuts are in season, I know where they are I could just pop out for five minutes and pick them.
I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
I could meet friends in town for a cup of tea!
I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
I could take the bus to the edge of Dartmoor and go looking for mushrooms
I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE! I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE! I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
There is now a fly head-butting my window, it sounds like the door is knocking downstairs, nature is tormenting me!
