The complaint issue

Another day of a dog barking non-stop yesterday. The neighbor Mrs. must have taken two of the dogs with her to vet appts. while she works, (she will drop them off before work and pick up after) as there is only one dog there all by herself and she was not one bit happy about the situation. It sure gets old. 

And while I'm complaining, I'm tired of getting purchase order requests at work and they don't give me the ship to address. Sure, I'd love to enter this PO for you....but I'm not a mind reader nor going to assume you need it shipped to the office (especially when hardly anyone is there still), LOL. It's part of the basic info needed. Part#, price, quantity and ship to address. Pretty simple.

OK, I'm done complaining! I'm adding some black 8x10 frames to my Walmart pick up order. I have a bunch of ink and pencil sketches my biological dad did years ago (dated early 70's). All of ranch life and scenery (my grandparents had a cattle ranch in eastern MT). I'm going to pick out 3 or 4 of them (out of about 30) and put them in my master bathroom. I haven't put anything on the walls in there yet and I think the western theme of the sketches will go great with the decor (wood look tile).  Here is one I think I will use

They are all drawn on 9x12 paper, but many have crinkled edges, even a coffee stain or two, haha, and some of the pages have 3 hole punch on one side, so I'm just going to trim down a bit to fit 8x10. Most are not drawn all the way out to the edge of the paper, so they will fit 8x10. DD said she would like to have one of them, too, so I will frame one for her and send. I already scanned most all of them and sent copies to my half sister (same dad).

Well, sort of a complaint, but not....the new chicken waterer is leaking a bit out of the bottom :(  Just a slow drip. I had a feeling this would happen with they way dh had to take it apart. Maybe he can figure out a way to reseal it better. 

I'm not really liking my new pretty notebook much. It's pretty, but hard to use. The outside that folds over doesn't stay down flat when you are trying to write in it, so it's a bit annoying. At least it wasn't expensive. If nothing else it looks pretty sitting on my desk, LOL. At least I now have all my logins and passwords copied over to it and mostly now in alphabetical order, making them a bit easier to look up when necessary.

  1. The dog barking and the lack of address are both things that would get really old for me! I am quite sure those pictures will look great anywhere in the house. That is nice to have those from your father. Do you have a link to the chicken waterer? The description from the other day left me in the dark as I cannot picture it at all.

  2. I think those drawings will look beautiful in your bedroom. Your dad was a pretty talented man!

    1. He was talented in art and music....of which I inherited zero, haha. He was the epitome of a cowboy from head to toe. It's too bad he wasted his life and talent on booze :(
