Calls/Emails:  Grandview Mess

Got a call from the daughter of an elderly guy in Grandview.  When I told her we don’t pick up and they have to be spayed/neutered, she went off “They are just barn cats!”  Yes they are barn cats but we are moving them and cannot “move” problems and/or diseases.  Next – SHE HUNG UP ON ME.  Moral:  Don’t let elderly parents cause problem for you later when they need assistance.  Get those areas taken care of before it becomes an emergency.     

BMG:   Toll Ramp – What?

I-35E has been there for eons but the Sam Rayburn T ollway is newer.  There has never been a direct ramp to I-35E from the Rayburn.  One has just been completed after many, many months of work.  NOW THERE IS A TOLL TO USE THE RAMP – Geez – anyway to take our money!!!!!

OMG:  Buddhist Temple in Keller

I saw the top of the tower when I took cats to Keller 3 weeks ago.  I remembered this so went to see it when I picked up the equipment this week.  Who knew – Buddhists in Keller!
