Still No Movers

June 30th, 2010

Its Wednesday afternoon and still no movers. That’s right. A full week after the scheduled delivery date. They said yesterday they’d be here this morning. Morning has turned into afternoon…and they’ve just called to advise that I will need a shuttle truck to move from the tractor trailer to my new abode. Its the finest of fine print on the “contract” which doesn’t state the size of truck that they use to haul your stuff cross-country.

So…still waiting. And discovering new things. For example, I have geckos. They’re really cute and curious. I expect at any moment one will stand upright and ask if I’d like to save 15 percent on my car insurance.

The bee issue continues. I think by now I must have rescued 50 or so. Though I’m told they just fly right back to the next that’s been poisoned. Its sad. I hope they come and move the hive. I’ve heard several times in recent years that the bee population is dwindling for some inexplicable reason. Entire colonies are just abandoning their hives. I think one optional explanation has to do with Global Warming. I’d ask Al Gore but he seems pretty tied up these days.

Another bee desperately needs rescuing. More soon…
