We have this nice feature for postal mail, letters and packages.  They send you an email each day with the front images of all envelopes/mailers planned to be delivered that day.  Packages do not get images shown but detailed tracking information is provided.

This is a nice service.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

Up and at em early today, got some back and muscle cream that seems to work. Have to be carefull with stuff like that as my skin reacts with some of the stuff I have tried before, this is okay so far.
 Mum rang last evening to say she has planted most of the runner beans, good job as I cant bend to do it. After getting plants from D she has found her missing packet of seeds so planted them in trays in the green house, not sure where she will plant them as garden is full!! Potatoes, carrots , broad beans , French beans, radish and other stuff.

Well unless something has finished cropping there is no ground left! My Monday parcel arrived today, courier rang my door bell and must have rung no9 as well as it went off before I could bring up the key pad to open the door. Went down and my parcel and 2 for flat9 were left in the porch so put his parcels inside by the letter boxes and put my one in my car.

That is nice of you to put his parcels in a better spot.

Well our local county council has been taken over by Reform, they are already doing a DOGE attack on the councils accounts. God help everyone if they take over the country.I live in an area run by a District council so hope no bother here.

Working under a dashboard is one of the worst car jobs, particularly if you have a bad back.  Can you draft some young help?

Hopefully, your version of DOGE burns out quickly.  The US is already showing weariness with the idiots.

It is NO fun removing a dashboard, steering column, even seats to get to an A/C component or heater core behind the dash I hear.

Luckily Brian had someone come have a look after they were looking at his lads race car, saved me a job! Touch wood my back is getting better, time to work on the knees now. Good job I have the scissor lift as fitted the under dash and kick panels on passenger side as well as Vinyl covers on sill tops today.

Scissor jacks can be very useful for things other than lifting.

On my old pickup truck, an idiot backed into me and crunched the fender just in front of the rear tire well. I was able to wedge the scissor jack between the inner wall of the truck bed and the fender and popped the dent back out. It wasn't pretty, but it got the job done.  ;D

Yes have done that, this is a proper car lift powered by hydraulic rams with safety lock out and its "mobile". Well I say mobile but its awkward as to move on the uneven floor in my workshop.
 Guess what, its Thurs food shop again. Need to call in on hardware shop as run out of glue and screwcup washers. My brain not working well this morning as cant spell (thank goodness for checker) so hope I get all I need. Another odd dream night so grey matter mushy this morning, dream residue still lingering.
