Renewed my tractor insurance yesterday and had to laugh at one of the conditions that says there is no accidental damage cover while carrying nitro glycerine, or more than 2,000 shotgun cartridges or bullets. If I ever had that much fun, I probably wouldn't care
I laughed at this also Eric. I spent a year of my life teaching insurance policy exclusions to trainees and mid level management at Travelers Insurance, and what fun it would have been to be able to bring a little fake nitro into class...instead we talked boringly of mold and dripping pipes.
slept well last night, hope BEF did too. Lots of good news this morning with folks on the mend, and David is not washed off his mountaintop in paradise. Sad that John McCain passed, but glad that finally ended; N stage cancer is not pretty, nothing good about it, want it to end asap.
With dignity.
And Senator McCain embodied dignity. He always had my respect.
Chief Inspector of the Garden Club aka Miss Daisy is coming over after lunch to determine if my pile of leftover flower pots will make the grade for my new plants. Allowing these two older women to make all the decisions...plus I put a hundred bucks in their purse and said have fun and go indoor plant shopping. That got some big smiles...
Got my annual real estate tax bill. Despite big hoopla over reappraising everything last year throughout the county, mine stayed exactly the same.
And it's about half of what it should be to support a quality infrastructure. But it isn't, which helps me, but sure doesn't help the teachers, fire and police. Almost all the men have to have second jobs to support their families, who they then almost never see. And the local public schools are low performers, get ok grades but never good. Close to 100 percent of college bound high school grads go to Eastern Carolina University, in next town over, or local community college. Not a lot of cultural cross pollination...
And not a lot of folks of color going to college.
ok, end of sociology review...
Time to shower and shave and pick up the house for inspection.
First going to make a nice Sunday breakfast and give thanks for many things.
