Not getting the binoculars apparently - they've yet to arrive. Amazon called back and they gave me a full refund on my Amazon account in the form of a gift card.

So good news? I can order something else for that amount.

Bad news? I won't get the binoculars that I was looking forward to.

Spent about an hour talking to customer service to get the refund.

Kind of depressed at the moment. And frustrated.

Walked to the grocery stores today - Frontier Health Food Store for vitamins (they have the bluebonnet additive free vitamins) and Food Town for other things. Also, I'd forgot to get whipped cream.

I meant to make a French Silk Pie but my mother talked me out of it. I may just buy something from a bakery on the way home from my doctor's appointment on Wed. Watched Resident Alien - two episodes, and got bored. So that's that.

Mother desperately wants to bring my father home for both of their mental and emotional health. They've been separated since January 4. It's the longest that they've ever been apart in their 58-59 years of marriage. And not been able to see each other at all.

It breaks my heart. And there's nothing, absolutely nothing I can do but listen. She went to the Doctor today and found out that she still can't bring him home.

If I could have one wish - just one, it would be for my parents to be together right now.

I find myself feeling angry today - at the Universe. It will pass. But right now I want to punch the Universe in the nose. So, taking a news break for the next few days. My blood pressure is too high again, I think.

Anyhow...maybe tomorrow will be better?

I have a pair of binoculars that I haven't used for decades. Just checked them, they still seem to work. You are welcome to them if you wish.

I've had good results with the post office, but that's here, not there. UPS my next usual choice because they have a decent office fairly nearby.

That's frustrating about the binoculars though good that Amazon refunded you. I wonder if they insure their deliveries -- if so those insurers must really be paying out.
