Why, oh why, are there only $11 available in my checking account when I deposited my check on FRIDAY???? Sometimes I really don't like my bank.
Lots of things to do today. Have to go the oil company and buy more before our tank runs empty - again. And I have to argue with them over the $25 they charged us to prime the tank that I refuse to pay. We paid them - in cash, in person - on a Friday last time, told them the tank was between an eighth and a quarter full, and they said they'd deliver on Monday. No delivery Monday. Thought maybe they'd deliver on Tuesday; we both went to work early in the afternoon and thought they might deliver after we'd left. Woke up Wednesday morning to a 50 degree house and no oil. Called them and they said we were on their schedule for a delivery that day, told them our tank was now empty, and they told us we'd have to catch the delivery guy and get him to prime the tank. Never mentioned they wanted $25 for it. And if they'd only delivered the day they said they would, we wouldn't have needed it to be primed. This time, I'm not going to be nice to them; I'm going to tell them we need it delivered ASAP, and then I'm going to call them the day they say they're coming and remind them. AARRGGHH.
There are a bunch (pack? flock?) of squirrels in the yard, terrorizing the bird feeders and climbing all over the roof, knocking the ice off. It's a little disconcerting to hear things moving on the roof.
Alright, I'm off to call the bank and find out where my money is...... :-/
