Damn...that sucks Catbuds. Damn driver makes the mistake and YOU have to "pay" for it. Unbelievable....UPS should be on the hook for this, but we all know what happens when the little guy challenges some corporate entity.
Sorry mama catbuds, I hope your luck turns for the better...that ain't right. :( ....but you still got us! :D
What pisses me off the most is, the email said they make 3 delivery attempts before returning, & here's a 1-800# to call if you would like to give more explicit delivery instructions. They didn't make 3 attempts, & I just called the number to give instructions (to bring to camper, not house), but they sent it back because the driver said NOBODY lives THERE! They just made deliveries here fri & sat. Not a damned thing has changed mon! I'm pissed & have no pot. Hope nobody fucks with me for a while.....
-- Glad I have you guys. The animals just run the other way when I need to vent! (Poor little guys!) Another thing that went wrong today. Post office didn't attempt to deliver my heater. Left me a notice to p/u at p.o. The only way I can do that is a $30.00 cab ride. I got the damned heater on amazon because it was $14.00 cheaper than walmart, even including s&h. Now its 7ºF outside, & only 63ºF in here with the heater on high. It will be even colder by 6a.m.& I need that extra heater. I'm just screwed coming & going. (I don't even HAVE $30.0 if I WANTED to spend it on a cab). I need to deflate somehow..........
Wow....sorry Mama Catbuds, and I tend to get a little cranky when I'm out too. :wtf: I wish I could help you out, but I can't shove a bud through this computer screen no matter how hard I try damnit! I hope things get better for you, you are due for some luck. :D
Bummer Cat. Try calling the PO and ask them to please deliver the heater?
Ok, I'm confused, I thought you said you didn't need to be warmed up.
But seriously, it's turned into "three dog night" weather here, hope your fine. Hot stuff to eat and drink. Layers, and layers of clothes. Keep your feet warm.
Making the plants smell, they think it's time yet?
catbuds I am truly sorry to hear all of this. I'm really stating to hate winter. The cold just makes everything that much more annoying and uncomfortable. Go get your critters and apologize and I'll bet they would be willing to pile on top of you and keep you warm.
Cat, I sure hope you're not frozen! I'm so sorry to hear about the latest snafu's.
But, tomorrow's gonna be warmer!
Damn!!!
Cat - you must have heat - now if you have two clay or ceramic flower pots and a candle ( you are a farmer right?) put the candle in one and use the other as a cover- it will intensify the heat and actually heat a small area up to close to 80 degrees - I have used 3-4 in a room when the power went out in very cold temps.
About the thief- I already got warned and I bet if I told you how I would plan to have him taken away I would get banned and I kinda like this forum - but it would include cleaning your space up all legal- then leaving your door open- and Burnt Toast I really didn't say anything incriminating did this time did I ?
The roots - clean them and cook them in coconut oil for about 24 hours til they are black- then cool the oil and use it as lotion anywhere your body hurts- it really is strange how it helps - and it's warming too….
:joint1:Crystal- Have read about the two flower pots and a candle before, how in the world does it intensify the heat. The laws of thermodynamics are suspended?:jointsmile:
Ranger, the flower pots warm up & give off radiant heat & the candle burns slower & last longer. I was stuck in a snow bank during a blizzard back in the 70's. Had emergency candles in the glove box with a tin coffee can. Was working at a florist at the time & had a shit load of clay pots in the back of my car. I was stuck there for 2 days, heating with the candle in the can, covered with an inverted clay pot. It works!
-- Shovel, I called & got the run around. All the woman on the other end of the phone wanted to do was defend the mail carriers decision not to leave the package. So they sent a paper for me to fill out & maybe she will reattempt delivery next week, or tell me to come pick it up. So I'll get the damned thing once it warms up. I don't know what I've done, but I've aquired some really bad karma.
-- Chromophore, I've been forgiven & am being squashed as we speak! 38 lbs of fat cat on my feet & my legs are numb! I've ALWAYS hated winter! Days around 75-80º, nights about 65º. That's as cold as it ever needs to be for me! This artic vortex has broken records on low temps everyday for a week. Down to 0º? Us? Here in Md? That's crazy cold! Back up into the 50's this weekend. I get ear aches when it fluctuates that much. Yeah Crystal, any ear ache drop recepies? I get them all the time! Oh, & I was heating the grow closet with candles till I ran out. Cool tip!
-- well the plants have all lost their symmetrical shape! Can't believe how much they grew after the pruning! Pruning, root restriction, low on the nitrogen (only when they start to pale). Nothing holds these guys back. Was hoping to finish at around 18"-22", but my biggest 2 are that big now, & the others are close behind! Getting ready to do some bending & tyeing soon! Also figured out why they were so wide & fat, hardly no internodes at all.....I'd pumped up the light? Well I sat down & figured out the lumens per sq ft....1, 400! That's twice the recommended maximum. They were trying to grow away from the lights! I raised the fluors & removed the cfls. Never thought I'd have too many lumens with fluorescents! Suprised I didn't have light bleaching. Not that I'm complaining, but I wonder why? But anyway, they are looking really good, not like fat little mutant ground covers! Still posting pics to photobucket, still can't figure out how to get them from there to here! Shovel, Barnflowers managed to get my photobucket, did you ever figure it out? :) :) :)
