All things work together for good

Well, I went to the post office--my card that I use to pay to get on the bus hasn't been working right, and the guy driving the first bus said it was okay, I could ride for free. On the way home, however, my card said a different error message (first it said my card was denied, then the second time it said that I had no funds on my card, which I knew darn well I did). This time, the bus driver (a different guy) didn't say anything, so I wound up walking home. It was a little (maybe two or three blocks?) farther than my walk home from work. I didn't want to walk that far, but one the way home I kept thinking of Romans 8:28, "All things work together for good..," I guess all this walking is giving me stronger legs, anyway. I wound up, because of the long walk, not going shopping, but what I needed actually had arrived in the mail (dog food) from chewy.com when I got home, so that worked out. The rest of the day, aside from walking Angel later, I'm going to do a lot of sitting. When I got home, I called customer service for the bus card place and ordered a new one. I was told my balance would be transferred to it. Right now, I need to get some lunch. Hope your day/etc. has gone well so far in your part of myLot land !

That is as bad as not getting your medication in the mail or even better when you have a package that is supposed to be signed for and never gets delivered, the never found it. Yes, that happens to me some.

I wish I could get my medication in the mail. I used to be able to, but now they say they can't because my meds are "a controlled substance."

Oh, well--I don't hurt as bad as I thought I would.

I hope you can resolve that issue. Our busses you still pay cash, the old fashioned way. Or, you can buy a bus pass for a length of time (up to one month or as little as 1 day).

@stitcher It's unreal how often that verse explains the working out of difficulties in very strange ways.

I just chalk it up to God knowing what He's doing better than I do.
