I order a lot of things online, and I always have. I’ve never had a problem with not getting anything. Until yesterday. I ordered something online (a drip-hose for watering) and it was apparently taken. UPS says it’s delivered (location: porch) and it was not there when a friend stopped by my house around 3:30. A separate package was, but that one was delivered about 40 minutes after the hose.
It is irritating to not be able to trust that my packages are safe. Obviously there’s money involved, but it’s only $15, so that’s not the biggest problem. It’s more the inconvenience. I’ll have to figure out something else for getting my shipped items. I can get a few things from local stores, but it takes more time, and many, many things are not available around where I live. Major pain.
On the beet front, I got a lot, so we’ll see what happens. Right now, I’m also looking at what to do with all the parsley I received. I’ll try adding it to everything for a while and see where that gets me.
