Tedious !!

Wednesday started out on a good note . . . a big drop in gas prices.  Just in time for a big jump come the weekend . . .I managed to squeeze almost three gallons in the Ranger.  When you see prices this low, ya gotta top off even if it isn't needed. I parked too close to the pumps and had to squeeze myself tween the truck and pumps to fill it.  Things were just beginning to get tedious. 

Back home I started listing some Corning Ware.  I had taken photos of it and some stuff earlier in the week.  I had it packed, weighed and ready to go.  I got to the photo part of the listing and couldn't find the photo.  I know I took pics of it, but I apparently misfiled the photo so well that I couldn't find it.  Soooooo, that meant I had to unpack, re-shoot, pack it up again, then process the new photo.  Hate it when that happens. Kinda makes on not list anything else for a while.

Shortly after posting the listing, I received an email asking about combined postage for that item and another.  Soooooo, I unpacked and re-packed both items in one box and was in the process of weighing them when I noticed another email.  Someone bought the Corning Ware that I had unpacked, re-shot, repacked, then unpacked and packed for combined postage.  I then re-packed both items and took the purchased Corning Ware straight to the post office.  I'm not gonna mention how my static resistant packing peanuts and tape was misbehavin . . . By this time I was really feelin how tedious the day had become.  And, of course, flash mob of those dreaded, little, blue-haired women sensed how my day was goin and were waiting for me at the post office.  It took a lot of restraint, but I got that package mailed without my head exploding . . . Some days one really hasta work to get something sold on eBay . . .
