Story of the Day 3/ 31/ 2015

I dropped the food processor.

I am cleaning for Passover and changing things to "Passover" mode as opposed to regular year mode.
Believe it or not, I cannot use my regular year food processor during Passover, but have a separate one just for the holiday.
If you keep kosher, you think , "Oh yes."
If you do not, you think I am crazy.
This shows that people who do not keep kosher are more on the ball than those who do.

At any rate, in the process of moving the Passover food processor out of the garage and into the kitchen, I dropped the box.
I completely and totally dropped it , as in what was up was down and out...and the plastic parts, all 4 of them were now more like all 40 of them.

I went on line to see what it would cost to buy the replacement parts and I realized it was actually less expensive to purchase a new food processor- the exact same one, only new.
BUT only cheaper if ordered from Wal-Mart.com. On line, not at the store.

So, I ordered the food processor ( since I also had a free shipping code), and am waiting for them to deliver it,
on or before Thursday, April 3, 2015.
That is the date given on the order confirmation.
It happens to be one day before Passover starts..a little close for comfort, but manageable.

This morning, thing were looking up.
I received an email from Walmart that the food processor had shipped.

This evening, just before running off to work, I received a second email that it was "en route".

Curious as to where it was being shipped from and where it was now, i clicked on the link,
and found out, to my surprise, that Federal Express had already delivered the package,
to Antioch, California.


Lovely, except, you see, I live in Indianapolis, Indiana.

A slightly closer examination told me that they had delivered the package on January 3, 2014.

I then realized that they delivered the wrong package, to the wrong person, although, in that case, hopefully it was the right package to the right person,
and not ......
And, obviously, this person in California lives in avery different time zone than I do.

I thought, "Oh well, just be patient."

But then I decided that maybe I should contact Wal-mart for the correct tracking number, just in case.

It turns out that I have two options, I can go to WalMart.com and deal with their " help" questions, none of which seem to fit this situation,
or I can send them an email.
Of course, it only allowed me to sen date email after asking me , numerous times, if I really wanted to send the email.

After sending the email to them, I received a message ( not an email, this just showed up on their site) that I should expect a response within 24 hours.


I have decided to go to work and then com home and go to bed, and not panic until , at least, Thursday.
Except, I wonder, which year?
