Lately, I am being kept very busy with my Walmart orders. I have Walmart Plus so I get everything shipped for free. How fun! It seems this is my Week of Walmart Weirdness. It all started when I accidentally broke the bowl on my outside light and ordered a replacement from Walmart. Here is what it looks like. This is called a 5.75 inch Alabaster Replacement Light Glass in White from Design House. It arrived last week but it was the wrong item. They sent something totally different and totally unusable.

The place it was shipped from was Wisconsin. Are they doing other things wrong in Wisconsin? Well isn’t there a judge there who has been accused of something? And arrested? Here is what the internet says:

Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI on April 25 and charged with obstructing an immigration arrest. 

Could my wrong item have anything to do with this wrongful thing that happened to Judge Dugan? Yes, it can have a lot to do with it. OK, so I had to send that wrong item back and order a replacement and it is supposed to arrive tomorrow. Maybe Judge Dugan is feeling a little bit better now. I sure do hope so.

The thing is this, my crazy demented manager likes to do weird things with light bulbs. One of her so-called duties has been to turn our outside lights on and off each day and night. We each have a little outdoor light right next to our door and she feels it is her responsibility to do this very thing. She also has an annoying habit of not using the pull chain to turn the light on and off. She instead unscrews the light bulb as her way of turning the light on and off. She is stupid and unsafe.

I am practically the only one in this place who has a glass bowl covering the light bulb. I know this is a dangerous and highly not recommended way of turning on and off a light. She is doing this right now with my light bulb too. I have to screw the light bulb back in and pull on the chain daily to turn off the light until this glass bowl arrives. Then she won’t be able to do this unsafe activity, (put her hands directly on my light bulb). She’s a menace, an annoying nuisance, and definitely shows signs of dementia. I secretly call her Donald (as in Trump) because she exhibits similar behaviors.

Finally, tomorrow I am receiving the replacement and it had better be the right one this time. Oh Wisconsin, you need to get real here and start doing things right. I know it was the feds that did this but it was the place too: Wisconsin. Negative. 

Another parallel happened with my Dirt Devil vacuum order. Yes it arrived but it obviously went through a very bad time. The box was full of holes and was not shipped in a normal cardboard shipping box. They just sent it along in the Dirt Devil box and happily dropped it at my door. This order came from Salt Lake City. I already blogged about the journey it took to get to me.

After seeing the condition of the box I immediately wanted to return it too. Something made me stop and open the box and take a good look. I actually put the vacuum together. Everything was OK except I found these 2 black plastic round pieces separately and I was not sure what to do with them. Well later I realized that these 2 pieces were the wheels for the vacuum head! Wow. These were obviously broken. I could not use this vacuum. So now I had to rethink everything here.

I came up with the best solution and ordered another Dirt Devil vacuum directly from my local Walmart store and some packing tape. I knew this was broken and was going to be shipped back where returns go but I obviously needed a better shipping box to put this mess in. Today, I got one sent over from Walmart. I love Walmart Plus! I now have a very good Dirt Devil stick vacuum and it came directly from my local Yuma store.

Now, the parallel is this. The original broken vacuum came from Salt Lake City, where the Mormons live right? Guess where this same broken vacuum is going to end up now? All the way to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania! This broken vacuum is being sent all of the way across the country to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Amazing! Hey I did not plan this. It just happened anyway!

Another Bethlehem thing. Well right now there is so much drama and unrest in that part of the planet. Trump is holding the “on” button and could very well start a very bad thing going there for us in the USA. I am hoping that this activity with the broken vacuum coming from Mormon country and going to Bethlehem is going to stop his madness from continuing.

Tomorrow, things should start settling down again. FedEx is bringing my replacement glass from Wisconsin and picking up the box with the broken vacuum, which is then headed across the country to Bethlehem. I should be all done with Walmart Weirdness Week forever.

On another subject, I also finished my Big Beautiful Blanket today and it is now safely stored. I made this jokingly in response to Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. I hope this will help things go the right way for that mess in D.C.

This is my Big Beautiful Blanket. It measures 70 inches by 64 inches:

It was supposed to be a little baby blanket but I bought too much yarn so it kind of got bigger.

Oh well…

So Trump, I trumped you again by finishing my Big Beautiful Blanket and displaying it in public. Ha Ha Ha. I beat you this time and I will continue to beat you every single time because I am so tired of you. Go away, go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200 or anything. Be gone forever. I command this here and now and so it shall be done.

Love,

Mom
