Email delays

As it turns out this evening all my good efforts yesterday were rewarded by gmail. Not. At exactly 1947 I started receiving message after message stating that there were mail delays and that they would continue an attempt to deliver yesterday’s email for another 47 hours.

Oh really?

I can understand one or two emails bouncing. That happens all the time especially since I know a significant number of people who travel and might have a full mailbox. But think about it – it is really, really hard to fill a mailbox anymore. At least for anyone who doesn’t use AOL.

But anyway – everything bounced – to include the cc: to my own non-gmail accounts. Go figure. Any who – it wasn’t the highlight of my day. That was rounding up good friends at SFO Airport and bringing them home for a couple of nights.

We will not talk about the traffic on the way home. Bay Bridge construction during the day? Oh, please – thrill us all by closing a couple of lanes before the last SF exit. At least the traffic early in the morning when I drop off Dani and the dog isn’t anything at all.

And now to see what happens with this email…..

About Holly

fiber person - knitter, spinner, weaver who spent 33 years being a military officer to fund the above. And home. And family. Sewing and quilting projects are also in the stash. After living again in Heidelberg after retiring (finally) from the U.S. Army May 2011, we moved to the US ~ Dec 2015. Something about being over 65 and access to health care. It also might have had to do with finding a buyer for our house. Allegedly this will provide me a home base in the same country as our four adult children, all of whom I adore, so that I can drive them totally insane. Considerations of time to knit down the stash…(right, and if you believe that…) and spin and .... There is now actually enough time to do a bit of consulting, editing. Even more amazing - we have only one household again. As long as everyone understands that I still, 40 years into our marriage, don't do kitchens or bathrooms. For that matter, not being a golden retriever, I don't do slippers or newspapers either. I don’t miss either the military or full-time clinical practice. Limiting my public health/travel med/consulting and lecturing to “when I feel like it” has let me happily spend my pension cruising, stash enhancing (oops), arguing with the DH about where we are going to travel next and book buying. Life is good!
