Heavy Lifting, Does anyone do what they say?

Cindy has been looking for a used armoire for our bedroom for a little while.  She found one that we targeted for pickup yesterday after I was done working. These massive pieces of furniture are infamous for being miserable to move because of their size and weight.  Luckily this piece has a top and bottom section which made the process more tolerable.

I thought Cindy and I were going to have to load the piece in the truck but the husband, who was older, was still willing to be the other half of my hoist team which I appreciated.  We got both pieces into the back of the Tacoma without issue although it was a tight squeeze.  Cindy and I switched vehicles for the drive home with her hopping in the Tesla and me in the truck.  If something happened to the furniture I wanted it to be my fault.

We were very fortunate to avoid now typical afternoon rain on the drive home.  Unloading the pieces was a little tougher and instead of furniture sliders we used the hand truck to wheel both pieces into the bedroom.  We carefully placed the armoire in the spot Cindy had cleared out.  The sketchiest part was lifting the top piece into place but even that went relatively well. I escaped the move without any new injuries.  Unfortunately the knee and lower back pain I entered with remained after the task was completed.

Yesterday Lowes, joined the ranks of Miguel the landscaper, Echelon Bikes, and a few other individuals that are unable to follow through on what they say.  The new tractor I ordered from Lowes supposedly was going to be delivered to the house today.  Yesterday Cindy got a call that instead it would be delivered to the store on June 29th, assembled, and THEN a delivery scheduled sometime after that.  I mean this is nothing new in our world.  I am constantly running into individuals and businesses that put little to no importance on meeting expectations they set themselves.  As much as it happens you would think it would bother me less.
