Tea is one of my favorite beverages. I love to drink a cup of tea in the morning when I first get up. My youngest son also enjoys tea when he first gets up. I learned to love tea when I was a little girl. My parents drank tea in the morning, the basic black pekoe tea with sugar and milk. It was a great treat to be allowed to have a sip of it in the morning!
Last month my bank changed over to being a Wells Fargo bank, which I’m not too happy about, but not much I can do about it right now. What is a real bummer is that all the employees that I had gotten to know, relied on and looked forward to seeing when I came are no longer there, which really bites.
Today I had go inside because the teller at the drive in window was giving me a hassle about a check that I wanted to cash, which was never an issue before Wells Fargo came into the picture. I was surprised to see that this very small home town branch now had these stanchions with the nice and plush looking velvet rope (which I’m sure customers such as myself helped pay for) placed in front of the tellers for their “crowd control” issues. What crowd is what I want to know? What a joke.
Next thing I expect to see is some of barricades put into place for the employees that are conducting business behind the desks and in their high and mighty offices that now look very uninviting to the eye, sigh . .
Every now and then I like watching The Animal Planet and I had heard of a new show that didn’t really sound like something that I would enjoy, but I have to say that their new show called Tanked was pretty entertaining, much better than their other new show called Hillbilly Handfishing. It’s just not something that I can get into and I’m pretty sure that it won’t survive for another season.
I’m so glad that I switched over to Direct TV. I just hope that we don’t lose power over the weekend due to the up and coming arrival of the hurricane that we have been watching the progress of on our new Direct TV system. I have always wanted a generator for the house just for occasions such as this, but we haven’t had the extra money lately to put into something like this. Right now my main concern is finding a home security system to have installed so I have Googled “home security cordova” to see what kind of deals I can find.
Since the economy doesn’t seem to be letting up at all, there has been more and more home break ins and robberies happening and I just don’t feel safe anymore. Even though we really don’t have much of anything of value around here they could still walk away with some of the electronics and really trash the place searching for more things that we might possibly have and that just wouldn’t be cool. We have worked hard for the things that we have.
In the mean time I’m praying that these hurricane doesn’t hit as hard as they are saying it could hit. Be safe.
Today was a scary day with the 5.8 earthquake shaking up the east coast as much as it did. The worse part was not being able to get hold of anyone due to the majority of cell phones on the blink. At first it didn’t seem to be all that bad but now the news is telling of all the damage and injuries that are being blamed on Mother Natures deed of the day. I’m glad that everyone that I know and love are O.K. and that we don’t have any more scares like this one any time soon.
