This morning there was a little over 1 tenth of rain in the gauge in the last 24 hours. It would be nice to see a little more rain to make things green up again. The hot 30C+ weather is a little hard on the grass with no rain. Fingers crossed
Today is order day for the shack and our delivery truck shows up about 6:30 with all our stuff so Sheri and I have a quick coffee on the deck from 6:15 until he arrives and then we get to work. We had 2 full pallets of stuff today so we were busy unpacking and putting away a wide array of stuff. Everything from chicken fingers to cheeze to buns to bacon arrived in this shipment.
Not to mention the 30 pails of ice cream that has to find freezer space. We used to feel bad getting that great big truck to come to us to deliver for a little $600 order.
Well not any more!!! Our order today was close to $4000.00 which included lots that will go to Hamiota for Cj's on the Links.
That big of an order generates a lot of cardboard boxes. What a colossal waste they are. Terran will just break them down when he comes to work tonight and put them in the dumpster. Most of the stuff we get could be easily delivered in its original packaging especially the ice cream. The pails are packed 2 to a box. Or we could break them down and send them back to be used to package our next order. Nope!! Instead we pay for the box in our prices and then we pay again to get it hauled to the dump. Our world needs to change real quick when it comes to waste! (Don't get me started!!!) Didn't do much for the rest of the day because I was tired from rising early. So off to bed I went. Good Nite!!!
Our big supplier are not environmentally conscious, we do are more conscious than these big supplier and time is now for them to be as conscious as we are
