Made in China

For those of you who don't know, I occasionally moan and complain about the abundance of Chinese consumer goods that line the shelves at so many of the stores we frequent. And I probably wouldn't if China wasn't in the news every week for painting toys with lead or adding industrial chemicals to food products, or evidencing some other utter lack of quality control and regard for human health, but hey, at least it's cheap, right? Anyway, that load I'm hauling? Imported from China.

And it's going to WI, so it looks like I won't be getting home until next week at the earliest. I still have hope.

I wondered how long it would take, and now I know. After being out here for 10 days, I'm ready to sit at home on my couch and watch my t.v. And then I want to sleep in my bed. Sharing a truck with somebody isn't as difficult as I thought it might be. It's certainly close quarters, but as long as we don't both try to run in circles, we can manage.

Alright, I've got my sock full of hammers ready. Time to attempt to sleep.
