Tonight's picture was taken in June of 2009. Friends went to Hershey Park in Pennsylvania and brought Mattie back this bean bag Hershey kiss. The irony was Mattie hated chocolate, but he definitely loved the bean bag kiss. For the life of me, I have no idea where this kiss landed up. I don't remember donating it, and yet after that moment in time, I don't recall seeing the kiss ever again.
Quote of the day: Today's coronavirus update from Johns Hopkins.
- Number of people diagnosed with the virus: 33,375,684
- Number of people who died from the virus: 597,903
I woke up this morning at 7:30am and never stopped moving. In fact, I have been so busy, I have yet to eat anything today. Top on my list was to contact every utility company (electric, gas, water, and sewer) to transfer the services from the previous owners to us. You would think.... how long could that take? I allotted an hour! Boy was that an underestimation, as I was on HOLD with the gas company for exactly 60 minutes. I am sure the average person would have given up, but I remained on hold. I got it all done today!
But that isn't where the fun ended! Then I jumped into the car and headed to the bank. I had to wire money to the escrow company for the down payment of the house. They wanted it today and they were driving us crazy with email requests! Little did I know that in order to wire money, I had to make an appointment with a banker! I guess this is a COVID policy! Thankfully the bank accommodated me and I only waited 30 minutes for an appointment and got it done. But I have to say it is disconcerting wiring a large sum of money through the ether!
After the bank, I had to go to the Ford dealership, as the car needed an oil change. So I waited two hours there for that to happen, then got the car washed, and went grocery shopping. The question is what didn't I do today!?
