[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 660355, member: 1963"] Well, I am now officially somewhere between spitting nails and pitching my first rage since my teenage years: Found out after finally getting through to the moving company, that my household goods have to wait until there is a larger load going "the same way" to be shipped to Greenfield! This because I am only shipping about 1K lbs of stuff and it "isn't worth" putting that small a load on a truck by itself! Who knows how long it'll take for my stuff to get here! On the bright side, my mattress arrived in Milwaukee today for quality assurance testing. I can expect a phone call today or tomorrow during which I can schedule delivery for the 17th or 18th of July, so at least I won't have to sleep on my new sofa. Of course, COOKING AND DRESSING will be rather interesting, to say the least, depending on when my household goods arrive. I came down here with only a few t-shirts, shirts, and a couple of pairs of pants/lounge pants. and various underthings. I'll have to buy some clothing. I have a small saucepan,a small frypan, a service for one of dishes and silverware, and a spatula. my microwave is with the movers. It'll be very limited cooking until my stuff shows up. Luckily, there are a lot of carryout places in the immediate area and quite a lot of delivered "dining", but I could really do without the expense. Meanwhile, I ran into problems at the local Walmart pharmacy trying to fill my sleep medication, which is a controlled substance,despite it being "forced" down here from Rhinelander by the pharmacist up there. Took another phone call during which Chris' reaction to the situation nearly melted my cellphone. He called the pharmacy and again walked them through transferring the RX, which will be ready on the 4th as they have to order the medication. At this point, I don't know if they are intentionally obtuse or just stupid, but they are starting to drive me crazy. I go through this craziness with each RX I try to fill, magnified 100-fold with controlled substances. I DON'T need anymore frustration in my life right now! On the bright side, Thomas is finally recovering from his "upset" at having his diet switched suddenly. Both he and Squeaky are doing well, though frustrated at being confined to one room when they know good and darned well that there's a whole big house to explore on the other side of the door. Unfortunately, there is also a little, female cat that Squeaky wants to eat on the other side of that door, so the Kidz have to stay confined. [/QUOTE]
