"Here's to Bill"

Our UPS man.

Bless his heart, we torment that fellow continually, ordering packages that come in dribs and drabs, forcing him to make the long trek to the country on a regular basis.

And by "we," I mean Loren, of course.

I only order stuff around November (Christmas) and June (2-3 months before a new school year). And most of my stuff comes by the USPO.

At any rate, the roads have deteriorated and our-man-at-UPS (Bill), a supremely nice fellow, called to say he cannot deliver out this way anymore, tonight, the roads are just too bad. He's leaving our package at Casey's and we should (I think) be able to get in tomorrow, to collect it.

I'd much rather do that then have him get hurt.

And speaking of storms, there has been no light flickering, so far. Usually, prolonged flickering denotes an upcoming power outage. Lots more mixed precipitation to come, though....

Oh, and Sharon arrived safely, just after 4 o'clock, so that is good! It was getting slippery towards the very end, but otherwise, her trip was fine.

We did have to push her up to the garage, however. Her car got stuck coming around the driveway turn, but four siblings went out and helped her get the Mighty White Honda Civic into the garage and safety.

Now, I'm just cooling my heels while the multitude-of-kiddage works on Ethan's birthday supper...so yes, once or twice a year this whole big family thing pays off.
