Ticked off! @texting zombies

I am really ticked off that my 12-year-old refrigerator’s icemaker went on the blink, and there are no replacements available because they stopped making them! I bought a small countertop icemaker, and it is working just fine. I make ice in it and then dump that into the dispenser on the refrigerator. Probably saved about $3,000. A little awkward, but it works.

I’m ticked off that I’m forced to back into the parking spaces at the malls to avoid backing over the “Zombies” who have their eyeballs glued to their phones. They’re the same ones I blow the horn at when I’m behind them at the green light.

Somebody shake me and wake me up as to why some people leave 1-3 car lengths between their vehicle and the one in front of them, especially at side street red lights that have short “green” rotations!

I’m so ticked off at neighbors of Ocoee Elementary School. Pick up after your pups!

I am ticked off that people that I have known for years and have known for over five months that I have cancer and have been going through chemotherapy have not bothered to call, text, or even email. Shame on you. What kind of friends are you? Do me a favor and keep being lost.

I’m ticked off that I filed my income tax return over one month ago, and still no refund!

I am ticked off that people invented ways to travel to the Moon, Mars and launch satellites and people into space but have failed to invent quiet lawn mowers, leaf blowers, weed eaters and other lawn equipment that does not wake up or disturb the entire neighborhood when used! I believe this would be more useful here on Earth!

The flip side

A huge thank you to the Captain on Allegiant Air who invited my little grandson to sit in the cockpit. You made his day - and mine too - and memories that will last a lifetime!
