My package arrived but I never did get out to the bank today, as while waiting for the delivery I had gotten busy with shooting something -- another "experiment" -- and then while I was looking through them on the computer, a knock on the door -- and here was another delivery guy, this time from DHL, with a package from a friend from overseas. Had fun opening that -- five bottles of beers from various places in Austria and Germany! One bottle, unfortunately, didn't survive the trip, the box looked pretty banged-up, especially on one corner (must've had a rough journey!) but thankfully was well enough wrapped so that the liquid didn't get all over everything else and the broken glass remained confined within the wrapping, too. So I'm in for a delicious treat -- four delicious treats, actually -- and each beer will have its own distinct flavor due to the hops and such. Such a delight! The beers are resting comfortably now so I'll have my first taste of one tomorrow....
Then this evening another knock on the door -- sheesh, Grand Central Station!! -- and it was a friend from a neighboring building bringing her annual Christmas banana/pumpkin bread -- another delicious treat!!!! Mmmmm.....
As I had predicted, later in the afternoon the library sent an email informing me that the reserved book is now on the Holds Shelf for pickup, so I'm glad I had planned to go there tomorrow rather than today. I also have a few things on my list to pick up at the grocery store tomorrow, too, while I'm out anyway.
