I'm afraid I'd break that glass scale. LOL. My brother joked that he stepped on a talking scale and it said "One at a time please". He has weighed himself before and after going to the bathroom and can confirm he was full of crap.
I don't use weight as a measure of fat loss because sometimes when you get in better shape you gain more weight from muscle. My healthiest weight was 150lbs. I had very little fat on me but I lifted weights and practiced martial arts so I had more muscle. According to my BMI going on height and weight, I was considered overweight/fat.
Wingnut, I think sports cars are nice to look at but getting in and out of them is never easy or comfortable for me. I prefer larger vehicles slightly higher off the ground and with more head room. I will drool over photos of sports cars all day, but getting in them? Nah. I do like that ATV. I keep wanting one for my farm but I'd need one with power steering. Ones at TSC don't have that.
My package did not arrive yesterday. I checked more details on the fedex site and they said they could not find my address (despite the fact they have been delivering here for over 20 years). I called them and attempted to resolve the issue. I tried multiple times to get a live person but only got some automated system. Over and over and over the system kept refusing to let me speak to a live person and only gave me limited options. When it didn't have the options I needed it told me our business was done and hung up. I tried various options to try something and wanted to confirm delivery address. Got through the menu prompts and then was told that only the sender could do that. So, I called HD and spoke to a nice lady and informed her of the situation and about the infuriating menu that wouldn't let me speak to anyone and how Fedex people know where I live but sometimes I get drivers who are too lazy to come out and just claim they can't find it or make excuses. This happened with my Starlink equipment that was delayed by weeks because they kept refusing to deliver. Not even bad weather, just the driver being a jerk.
I explained that if they were not using google that sometimes my street name was misspelled and that caused issues. She was very understanding. As an aside, she sounded like one of my aunts. She read back all of her notes, confirmed the issue, and then said she was going to personally call Fedex for me if I could please hold for a few minutes. I stayed on hold and she came back on after several minutes and said she spoke to them, told me who she spoke to at Fedex and that they guaranteed it would be delivered today. I said that if for some reason they claimed to not be able to find it, rather than give me a refund, ask them to take it to my friend's house instead. I gave the address. Also warned to not run from the cow and to leave the package on the porch.
Got an update from Fedex saying package was delivered and "Left at front door".
Does this look like a front door?
In the past I have specifically asked them to not leave packages behind my truck & to not leave them on the lawn. Ugh. That thing weighs over 50lbs and had no handles to grab. My arm is still not fully recovered and I hurt myself simply getting it on to the sidewalk because there is a dropoff from the sidewalk to grass. I had to scoot it along the sidewalk and then up the steps. I left a negative review saying this was not the "front door" and that I've had stuff get rained on in the past and that I want my stuff on the porch where it is safe.
But, I got it inside at least.
