Ordering online can be weird!


It is Wednesday, November 12th-- and it is just a bit over 7am--and--WE HAVE SNOW ON THE GROUND
and, it is cold!
I have a Bereavement  Session to get to--plus plus plus-----so this will be a very short blog--Lopez must get out also--in his parka--  It is going to be a very busy day--and--  WE HAVE SNOW__Lordy BE! -
Last night I heard the doorbell--  It was a Delivery from Amazon--  with 4 huge boxes--  like on that TV commercial  about a diaper delivery that the man forgot to cancel so it went on for 25 years or so--
  Well--this is what happened here! --I had ordered incontinence pads from Amazon-- made a mistake and about 25 boxes  arrived at my door---in huge long  boxes----- There are so many, that a couple of the long boxes had fallen and broken--and were lying all over the front lawn--in the snow---  Obviously I had made a wrong check mark when ordering these---
 So----  that is what can happens when one  makes a wrong check mark on Amazon---I may as well keep them-but--that will be the end of me ordering from Amazon--at least for a very long time!  
It took me hours to chop up the boxes--and put all that card board in my wee tiny storage room--LORD LOVE A DUCK!--then--where to store all the packages of pads--??????
So----  life is not good this AM---  but--  I sure have lots of  pads--  Any of you need any??--

                        LORDY BE! ----  Why on earth has this happened to-day???

  1. Good Morning Lynda,
    That is frustrating when you order the wrong amount of something or order the wrong thing. I have done that too.
    Just a suggestion, but maybe you could donate some of them to a shelter, or a charity. I am sure there is need for that.
    Or you could return some of them to Amazon if that's an item they let you return. Just a couple of options.
    We had snow yesterday too and it was COLD!. Going to warm up today though and be warmer through the end of the week.
    Hope all goes well with your grief session.
    Take a breath and hang in there. It will be a good day!

    Hugs,
    Jackie

  2. Snow . . . tis the season, eh!

    Good luck and safe travels going to your Bereavement Session and your other chores. It’s all challenging when dealing w/snow.

    Oh my goodness! That is why I am very careful to do ONE TIME ORDERS vs. signing up for ongoing orders. YIKES!

    Hope the day gets better.

    hugs and blessings

  3. Good morning, sis.
    I often make mistakes ordering from Amazon or online at Walmart or a grocery store. I ordered recently from ebay and that went well. And sometimes it's the people on the other end making a mistake. And that brings the necessity for a call to customer service. Frustrating.
    I like the idea of returning or donating all those pads. At least the ones you won't need to keep. Use the ones that fell out of the boxes to dust your furniture!😊
    I have to call my insurance company today to give them the new lien holder and try to correct an undelivered (but they say it was) order from PetSmart.
    It's always something, isn't it?
    How did it go yesterday for your appointment for your lesion?
    I'll be back later to check. Be careful on your walk with Lopez! We don't need you falling. {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie

  4. Hi Lynda
    Your Amazon story made me laugh...but not the part about the broken box. Glad you got it straightened out and in your house.
    Be careful walking Lopez and going out with car. Im glad the grief support is finally starting.
    Warming up again in St.Louis. im not a fan of winter.
    I gotta get Sadie in gear. Chiropractor, food shopping, gas in car and haircut later.
    Enjoy your day.
    Hugs
    Marge
