I still don't want to say of do anything that might cause me to have to have more surgery....... No siree!! Heck Doc, my day is going just fine!
Anyway we have returned to the lake cabin this afternoon where we are sitting outside staring at the lake for copious amounts of time...... We thought we would get some shopping done this weekend and perhaps clean up the dock a bit tomorrow......
Tonight we went over and purchased a couple of chairs that swivel and rock for the screen porch. They came in a big box in oodles of pieces..... So I spent much of the night putting bolt F into hole Q with two ZZ lockwashers......
So not much else going on, since we spent the afternoon driving back here. It takes about three and a half hours from KC.......

By the way....... we received this comment on the Kansas DMV post from a couple of days ago... It is anonymous but obviously comes from someone in the know who can't state his name for obvious reasons....... So I thought I would elevate his comment to the main body of the blog for those that might have missed it.
The software that was chosen for the new modernization project was the lowest bidder. It is much more complicated and time consuming to do the most simple tasks. It will not get much better even after the employees master the new software. FYI. The drivers license offices are next in line for the new software.Boy I wish them the best of luck with this implementation.....
We are so fortunate with the system we have here in MO for the DMV, In most cases you are in and out in about 10 minutes and if you use the small town offices, you will get small town charm.Be safe out there and enjoy the Lake. Let us know what campground is close to your Lake site and maybe Donna and I can visit some time this summer. Be safe out there. The liberties good.
ReplyDeleteSorry I wasn't able to leave a comment yesterday. The box to comment wouldn't come up for some reason. Anyway, congratulations on being cancer free! What a huge relief!
ReplyDeleteSelecting the lowest bidder will no doubt end up costing the Kansas DMV millions more than if they had just done the work required to evaluate the best product available. It's an all too common phenomenon.
ReplyDeleteOne of the major things (but only one) with our great country is the fact that everything goes to the lowest bidder. You'd think somebody would glom on to the fact that they are the lowest bidder for a reason. As a library director, I suppose I'm a small part of government, but I absolutely refuse to go with the lowest bidder. Somewhere in the middle of the pack is usually the best value.
