It is actually a very calm and peaceful ride. Mostly back roads through small towns. One of her room mates moved out which left me scrambling to find a fridge and TV this weekend.<br />Thought I was going to have a stroke carrying that fridge up two flights of stairs and across the end of the dorm. <br />I let her take my man cave TV as I have other options.

You couldn't figure out how to open a safety sealed package? Maybe ask your grandson to open these things for you when he visits.

By the time I was finished with the magazine, I had probably read over half of it. <br /><br />Related to our earlier discussion of wanting to be treated fairly by businesses, I contacted Chloraseptic about their throat spray. It comes in a small, plastic bottle with a pump spray on top enclosed by a small plastic cap. The whole thing is covered by some strong plastic shrink wrap. How to get it open? There is a little arrow on the top seeming to indicate that you should tear the covering material there. I couldn't do it. I tried a short pointy gadget and a small pair of scissors. Not much luck. I finally got it open after a struggle. I called their 800 number. The lady wasn't much help and seemed to have the attitude as if I were a little unreasonable and, after all, they needed to keep their product safe. She promised to send me a coupon for a free bottle. I then wrote to their 'Contact Us' e-mail explaining my difficulty. It seems like a simple thing to me. Either explain what I'm doing wrong and show me how to open it more easily or thank me and tell me that they are fixing the problem. We'll see...Bill G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04142837879175561312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5995532066584316410.post-79672099495278759282013-11-12T19:16:57.872-06:002013-11-12T19:16:57.872-06:00Hola Everyone, I thought I was going to have a har...Hola Everyone, I thought I was going to have a hard time with this puzzle, but once I had a few words in it became a matter of just filling in.
