This morning was the Bountiful Baskets fruit and vegetable co-op pick up. Instead of just picking up my basket, I always help with the distribution (produce comes in farmers' boxes and we break them up into the baskets for each participant). After everything was distributed into the 56 baskets, I went to sign the list to get my basket and . . . my name was not there!
My first thought was that what happened a couple of years ago had happened again: between the time I selected my basket and I pushed the "order" button, the last basket was sold. I wasn't charged, but I didn't get a confirmation slip either, and I didn't realize it until I was getting ready to go that morning.
But . . .
I had printed my confirmation slip this time. I had left it at home on accident, but I *had* printed it.
I went racing home and got online to figure out what had happened. I printed off the slip again and took a close look at it.
I had mistakenly selected a site 7 miles away! There is only a 20 minute pick up window, it was 3 minutes until pick up time started, and I didn't know the area of town I was supposed to go to. I jumped in the car and followed the basic direction on my confirmation slip and eventually found myself at a really pretty desert park in the south part of town.
I wasn't too late and I even still had a choice of pumpkins.
I'll be more careful with my mouse click next time. LOL
