Guess the Date!

24 September 2020

After our Tuesday washer and dryer delivery was mysteriously canceled by a hold no one can explain, we haven't gotten a new date from Lowe's. When I check the order online, it says "Ready for Delivery" with a delivery date of Sept. 22.

Usually there's a future date so we can wait expectantly for it to fail to show up. But having a past date provides no suspense at all. We both know what didn't happen.

So I thought I should live things up by having a Guess the Date contest. When do you think they will arrive? Let me know with the Feedback button.

THE FLU TOO

Things are a lot more organized when it comes to flu shots at Kaiser.

This year we can make a reservation (but not an appointment) for a drive-in shot. Kaiser is already using its parking lots for Covid-19 testing so it has made an arrangement with the University of San Francisco to use the parking lot near the Negocio soccer stadium for flu shots.

I spent a lot of time on that field in high school running track and playing football. The field house for the football teams was in the very corner the parking lot is now. I sure hope it smells better.

You won't have to guess the date of the flu shots. It's today.

WOUND CARE

Wound care with Salwa yesterday was an adventure. But it turned out well.

I'll just tell you one funny story.

We hear her car beep when she locks the door but then there is a long silence and we think we lost her.

"She's standing at the door," I tell Joyce, using my unusual powers of prediction. "She thinks she rang the bell again."

So Joyce opens the door and there she is, standing there patiently.

I wouldn't let her in until she proved she can press the door bell. "If you do it right," I tell her, "you can hear it."

We'll see what happens tomorrow. There's a tomorrow for everything, after all.


Guesses

Since Lowe's seems to operate in multiples of eleven, that puts you at Sept. 33. Maybe since that date is impossible, the delivery is possible. So Oct. 3 will be my guess, but I hope I'm wrong and it's sooner.

Prediction date: October 7. Hope it's sooner but that's my guess!

Luke says, "Use the 4th." Actually Obi Wan said that and apparently may be incorrectly sensing that Lowes delivers on Sundays, but you never know.
