Peace and Quiet


Maybe that's what they mean by Mind your P's and Q's. Mind your Peaces and Quiets.

This is my Clearlake, CA. Just before the sun peeked it's (hot) little head over the hills across the lake from our cabin. I love this time of day there...around 6 - 6:30. (a.m. of course) This picture is from the deck of my father's cabin.

I spent Labor Day weekend there, recharging my batteries. It was too hot, so my batteries were more discharged than recharged. Oh well, I still got to get away from it all.

Remind me to never buy anything from Target again. I purchased all those Gilmore Girls DVD sets from them, and found in the second season, that I was blessed with two disc ones and no disc two. I took it back to Target, and since it has been awhile since I purchased the DVD's and I didn't have my receipt, they won't honor the fact that they sold me a defective set. They seem to not be able to find my purchase in their system even though I purchased it with my ATM/Credit card. Hmmm, sounds to me like they don't want to be bothered with it. They very politely told me to get in touch with the manufacturer to straighten out the problem, "since it was not Targets fault" quotes the manager. To which I replied, "Well, I guess I can't be bothered to shop here anymore, since I DID buy the (expletive) DVD here and it shouldn't matter whose fault it is... I bought the (expletive) DVD HERE. He said he was sorry to hear that. So much for customer service. I came home and looked on WB's website. I sent them an email explaining what was wrong with the DVD set. They will let me return it to them, and send me a new set. It is just going to take 4 - 6 weeks after they receive it to me me a new set. I didn't want to wait, I want to watch it! I guess before I send it I had better open up all the other sets and make sure they are intact, or else I'll be doing this again.

That is why I posted the Peace and Quiet first...I need to mind my P's and Q's!
