Small Stones, Day 21: Frustration

Frustration!
Water pipe heating cable not working.
Water needing to drip 24/7 or pipes will freeze again.
Waiting for the order…
Finally able to track it today.
It was delivered somewhere in Knoxville, TN
last Friday.
I live in Indiana!
Now waiting for the store manager to call
to see what’s next.
Waiting……. 
Then…
What do I see outside my window?
A FedEx truck!
So was Knoxville just a stopping place?
When I stated to the driver

He muttered, “I guess they 
(the ubiquitous they?) 
were behind.
So who knows?
Not I!
Do you suppose 
THE SHADOW knows?

Too young to know to whom I'm referring?
Go here to read about him or YouTube to listen.

That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
