Sunrise EP9 - Memorial Day Weekend Orders arrived

My shopping list over Memorial Day weekend was 4 cute and colorful giant Geckos from At Home store. Ducky found them a good home (trees) at our Sunrise house. I need to take pictures of them and paste here. Yuki and the green frog now have more friends!  Soon, Gian Panda and its baby will be moving there too. Oh, the green frog also has a new friend from Thailand. It makes an awesome froggie sound as well. Oh, and I have many more animals to move with me actually.  😁

Well, let's come back to talk about our orders from Memorial Day weekend. Ducky ordered 2 kitchen sinks, kitchen vent, kitchen range, smart toilet, um, anything else? 

By the time he came back on June 10, most of the stuff ordered arrived. But I guess, all the workers and delivery men must have been so tired with Memorial Day weekend orders. We could measure from these:

Kitchen Sink
"They sent the wrong sink and I had to call 2 agents until they understood it was the wrong sink blah blah....  The new order would arrive on June 17.  They gave me 25% discount."
"I got the new sink but they sent me the wrong one again.... Now I got $225 discount and the full price was $363"  (62% discount now!)  "The new sink would arrive by June 26" 
(At this point, I just did not want to think if we would end up getting it for free or not.)

Smart Toilet
"Ron helped me open and he saw it was damaged from shipping."  
(I was happy Ducky went to buy just a Dumb toilet at Home Depot and installed it in no time in the powder room. It gave him a sense of accomplishment. Sometimes, being Dumb is not so bad.)

Kitchen Vent
"F..k y.. "   Well, at this point, I did not have to say anything much.
Um, I did not ask if he returned and replaced the vent or not. All I could guess was he "VENT"ed. 😆

Vent
..an opening for the escape of a gas or liquid or for the relief of pressure
..to give often vigorous or emotional expression to

After all, good or bad, it has been exciting, fun and memorable experiences building our Sunrise home with Duckie!
