Drinking glasses. It looks like it was supposed to be a set of eight – eight tall, eight short, but two of the shorts are missing so it's now service for six. The Goodwill here gets a lot of brand new things from retailers in our area. You never know when the trucks are going to come in or how the staff will stagger displays, retail the things brought in so I usually don't set out searching for anything specific when I go. Just lucky score. They're nothing fancy it looks like maybe Libbey Classic smoke, but I really like them for every day. I also found the best mugs. Not by the same company but a light gray sort of color that pairs well with the glasses. I think they were maybe supposed to be a set of six and if so one is missing.

Still they're very nice and when am I going to be having more people than I can fit in my living room over for coffee anyway. Now that my sons are grown, both have wives to keep happy and children to keep up with it just makes more sense to go to one or the other's place for large gatherings. My oldest has the bigger house, small yard. My youngest has the smaller house, big yard. So just depending on the season, where the weather is best that's where we are. Which is kind of nice. I clean up as if I were expecting company before I leave so when I come home from chaos and crazy it's just peace and quite, and cleanliness. And of course the ever calm, cool and always collected Monte the Magnificent.

I bought a Rae Dunn white top.

New living room furniture. Sofa, loveseat, chair and two end tables. Sofa is back ordered till after Xmas. But the rest will be delivered on Sat.

Aqua grey color fabric. I think I'll paint the walls a faint grey. I have two ottomans that I'll find a coordinating fabric to reupholster. I'll decide if I want an area rug after I live with it awhile.

I think I love furniture shopping! Thank you Rooms To Go.

A new car!! I picked it up yesterday! I still have my truck on the road - but that ole' girl is starting to see better days and I really needed to upgrade to something where I felt more secure. I decided to buy a Subaru Outback Sport! I have wanted a Subie for awhile - but I am pretty picky about what I drive - so I just never ran across one that had all the things I wanted in it - well, I finally got lucky!

Santa snow globe for the little one, music box, plays "You are my sunshine". Xmas she will love it. Lots of groceries. Fresh fish and veggies. Xmas tshirt with a big Santa face on it (for when they visit). I did not get much shopping done as they were here for a few hours so I got a late start. I will go more another day, no matter. Seeing them is much more important.

Pot, for my daughter in law, it's legal here. I owed her sixty bucks, she forgot her debit card, didn't have cash on her and they either don't take credit cards or she didn't want to change it, not sure. All I know is she said if I went against principal and gave up on using my better judgement she'd knock 20 bucks off my debt. Sold!

[Stone-Butch]

Lots of usual groceries, 5 new pair of heavy duty socks, a new nonstick frypan (no pot just a pan ). A few more xmas stocking stuffers for the little one.

Yesterday........a $15 New York Strip Steak that was the worst ever!

I hate it when that happens! I don't eat very much red meat anymore but when I pick something up that doesn't meet my expectations, it's very disappointing.

Today, I bought some clear craft stamps and a small piece of artwork on Amazon. They might go on strike for Black Friday so we'll see if I get it.

Later today, I expect to pick up some bacon jerky, bananas and beefsteak tomatoes for tomato sandwiches. So delish!

A TV stand, a cat tree. Cat toys, 3 skeins of red yarn, and stuff for dinner.

I have employee appreciation discounts next weekend! Oh and btw, I picked up a xmas side gig at TJMAXX. (Discounts at Marshall's and Home Goods, too!)

I could NOT do that! Too much temptation for me.

I bought nothing today but yesterday, I got dinner, some gas for my ride or die, 10 pairs of winter leggings (they were on sale for $4.99/each!), a quilted shirt, a pair of workout leggings and a huge crop top hoodie (so it's really not a crop top because it's so big but it's super cute and I look super cuddly in it so that was that) and a set of gel nails.

Wait. I lied. I paid a bill today. Nothing fun, though.

[Bèsame*]

I must be on a shopping spree..

Today was a pretty soft pink short wrap robe and a new sensormatic gel cooling pillow.

I had an aunt who used to work for Sees. Back then they got an employee discount on sales floor ready items. They were also able to buy items that were slightly imperfect at an even greater savings during I believe it was Christmas and Easter but definitely Christmas and one other holiday. They'd save the candy that froze well, that was slightly imperfect or items boxed and ready to go that customers never picked up, which couldn't be put back on the sales floor, in the freezer. All of it just bagged up in a jumble and you really didn't know what you'd get, except that's what we'd be getting from her so it was a bit of an adventure and we loved it. Anyhow this was decades and decades ago but See's, good stuff so an outlet store near enough to get to, lucky you!

I had been looking for a specific handbag for awhile now, found it exactly this morning and without looking too closely, because of my excitement, I clicked "Buy Now". After the order email came through and I had calmed down a wee bit, I had another look and realized it wasn't the designer I had thought it was, I was disappointed for about twenty three seconds. I got over it really quick and am super excited for it to arrive. Overnight no less!

Last night was spinach and alfredo pizza.

Today, it will be paint. This homeowner DIY is kinda fun! I painted two focal walls in living room last week. Coast Aqua. Picking a color was a feat in its self. I used the latest painting tools, so it was easy cutting around windows and corners. This week...I'm going to tackle the remaining walls including the hall and some wall space in the kitchen.

[FireSignFemme]

Very little of what I went to store for but got some good prices on a few things I hadn't thought of/will use latter.

-Special K cereal with freeze dried strawberries in it.
-Whipping cream, last two left.
-Two heart shaped boxes filled with Hershey kisses for my older grandsons and one filled with mini Reese's peanut butter cups for the youngest.
-Two four pack boxes of Kroger Easy Care tissue.
-Cheap antiquated cell phone with cheap minutes and easy to read letters.
-Cheap antiquated landline w/big numbers, loud speaker and ability to program in pictures of faces of people I know so “Now that you're getting older well it'll be a good thing to have a handset in the bathroom in case you fall. Or say you're just having a heart attack or something then you'll have the landline for backup. The numbers on that are bigger, will make it easier for you to see, so you can call and let us know we need to dial 911 for you”.

Seriously, exact words.

I bought the makings for homemade blueberry cobbler, and banana pudding with vanilla wafers.

Today I have bought nothing but that's only because there's a travel ban in effect due to the blizzard and I have grounded myself from Amazon. Too many good buys lately add up!

Yesterday, I did my storm prep shopping at Wally World. I got Honey Crisp apples, a frozen pizza, curly fries, Greek yogurt, blackberries, cottage cheese and almond milk (the last one!).

Every pay period I buy numerous things for the 2022 garden. Today I purchased four new raised beds, some landscaping liner with ground staples to go with it, a worm farm and a small chainsaw to take down some trees that sprouted over the last couple years. We might be having a snow storm coming, but I am already in spring!

[Gemme]

Not today but yesterday I put a deposit down on a new car and the day before, I bought 3.5 new additions to my whimsical stuffie collection. And a box of Keto cookies.

Hey FSF!! I had to chuckle reading your "tomatoes on the vine"....(my wife picks them off & tosses the vine away at the grocery store......she says I am NOT paying for the vine, too..as it goes by weight!!) She is pretty smart, as I never thought of that myself!!

[FireSignFemme]

My mother usually didn't buy them on the vine either. She didn't pick the stems off growing up we just ate other kinds. I don't know it for a scientific fact but she said buying them with the stem on keeps them fresh for a little bit longer so that's why some people we knew did. However not that much longer and besides in our house we used them up so fast it didn't really matter.

[Bèsame*]

Today was...
3 bags of potting soil. I have 5 pots that were given to me, of which I've spray painted pastel coastal colors. I'm not sure what is going in them just yet. But I have ideas of this beautiful white bougainvillea and a climbing jasmine vine.
Some heavy duty epoxy glue. A sunroom project with shade cloth going over the windows.
Thai basil, sage and a lavender plant.


And....out under the porch I have my very own vine ripened sweet cocktail cherry tomatos. And...very soon to have red and orange peppers. Just saying, I've never grown any veggies before!

[FireSignFemme]

Boat ton of stuff, too much to list. All of it for just in case shortages at store persist, get even worse. I don't want to horde but the way things are now if I don't buy while it's in stock I live to regret it. I'm hoping now that the mask mandates have lifted things will ease up.

The price of food right? It's crazy. Still, despite the rise in prices we're seeing shortages on certain things at the stores again.

Today the only things on my buy list are food for Monte, and a couple of over the counter meds for myself. I have a cold, and he's going in for dental surgery on Wednesday.

Dental care for Monte. Breakfast. Tomato, a pear, couple of bananas, blueberries, red seedless grapes, golden apple, LOL I guess I could have just said fruit. Also one raspberry goo in the center whatever topped glazed doughnut. Hoagie rolls for burger dips, brioche hot dog rolls for something new, never taste tested before.

My gas today was 76 dollars at 3.65, .20 off with Kroger points LOL Depends on what's going on, on how long a whole tank lasts!

[JDeere]

I got gas in the truck.

50 for a fix up haircut from a better barber than my regular one who has been off her mark, the past 6 months! I gotta find a better barber but 50 bucks is steep due to not having alot of hair!

Where does one get said zombie bunny?

I procured mine from Etsy but a Google search will steer you in many directions.

They range from cutesy to grotesque. I like the cute ones, personally.

Ummmm........I may or may not be in trouble. Tractor Supply marked their Barred Rock pullets down to a dollar each and now I have five sitting in my living room. I am going to blame it on my quest for our survival with the fall and winter Covid surge coming on. I hope Bevi will buy that one.

[Soft*Silver]

Round pizza pan. The Hubbie tried to cook a frozen pizza and we didn’t have one (I use a stone) so he put it directly on the racks. Taking it out, he burned both arms.
This will not happen again if I can help it!!!

Excellent, thank you! If I get a new place I want zombie bunnies and zombie gnomes!

I think you should!

Maybe start here (https://www.etsy.com/search?q=zombie%20bunnnies)? The voodoo and goth bunnies are cute too. Good luck with the gnomes! The ones I found lean towards grotesque and horror-ish but I did find this (https://www.amazon.com/SOWSUN-Statues-Dinosaur-Decoration-Housewarming/dp/B08RW36H21/ref=asc_df_B08RW36H21/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=507519613651&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8087166064521637356&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9002195&hvtargid=pla-1217503530198&psc=1) one. Not zombie necessarily but if I had a garden, I'd put it in there.

Let's see. For work, I bought some locks. For myself, I bought some groceries.

[Kätzchen]

New glasses and sunglasses, with bifocals, tinted lenses too.

Love my new pair of glasses. :bow:

[JDeere]

New wiper blades for the truck, they are specific ones for the year of truck I have.

Lunch, which was pho

then a bag of ice and a nestle toll house ice cream sandwich

[Kätzchen]

Mani and Pedi (three and a half hours of being spoiled)...

Bought a new dress and sweater, groceries, prezzies for my Love,
and 800 ct hotel sheets and pillowcases (I am changing up our bed)!

[JDeere]

Let's see..

drinks for the day
Dinner which was Mexican food
A new pocket knife! double blade from Cavenders

[Soft*Silver]

I brought home Popeyes famous new chicken sandwich. I think the hype was true! It was the best fast food chicken sandwich I’ve ever had

[Reach *BANNED*]

It was yesterday -

A new Fender Stratocaster electric guitar and amp
3 Harry Potter LEGO builds to add to my collection
Wiper blades for my car and truck
Gas for the aforementioned vehicles

I hit up the distressed plant rack at work yesterday. I came home with 3 perfect gerber daisy plants, a pink hanging begonia, an interesting indoor plant and a little anthruim. All for $6.

Also 2 tankini tops and a bottom came in the mail.

Sometimes retail therapy helps with stress.

[FireSignFemme]

-Coffee
-½ in ½
-Gallon of milk
-Horrible food from Jack in the Box they couldn't have made worse. Well I suppose if they burned it and sent me the ashes in a fry bag it could have been worse, and I ate it anyhow. So at least for today I'm not dieting, there's that

[homoe]

Some Hello Kitty! nail decals for my grandniece, Summer.

A poured patio for our rental unit, salad greens, corn on the cob and bread for the chickens, apples for the horses and fixings for snacks to eat while watching the Jan 6th committee findings tonight. Oh and maybe or maybe not a small cheese cake.

The full box set of the tv series ER

A Magic 8 ball (I mean who does not need something that has the answers for all questions posed?)

The full set (5 movies) Pirates of the Caribbean (had these all once upon a time - I had lent them out to friends over the years - and now I have not a one).

Patterned sheets. I always buy solid color sheets but no longer like them and have been buying sheets with pattens of leaves.

[Soft*Silver]

I am about to head to my favorite greenhouse that is having a $1 sale on all annuals, herbs, veggies and sunflowers. I am bringing the truck…..

[Gemme]

In the wee hours of the morn, I purchased some junk journals. I'm not sure if they are going to be strictly reference materials or if I will build upon them but they are adorable. Before the day is done, I will pay some bills, make an exchange at Saver's, return something to Home Goods (which almost always means another purchase there) and visit my waxer. Not in that order.

[Bèsame*]

A little retail therapy has helped for the moment, from the week I'm having.

A cat fountain
A cat tree with a hammock on top
Cat food
A fry daddy. I'm really craving fish and chips
An emergency hand crank radio/flashlight/phone charger.

All Prime Days😊

A 24’ long 6’ high cucumber trellis.

I was on FB and a gentleman and his wife are having a garage sale tomorrow and Saturday and I happened to notice in one of the pics they posted some Batman stuff. So, I messaged him and asked if there was any way I could stop by and pluck those items up from him. He was more than happy to oblige. However, the best part was - he also offered to let Me look through ALL the rest of the stuff he had - so I scored the following:

1 diecast Batmobile (medium sized) and 1 Hot Wheels Batmobile (small)

A new in the package Coleman backpack cooler - that holds up to 56 canned items (or anything else that would fill the thing out).

A NIKON cool pix camera - brand new - for only $10. I have been looking for this type of camera FOREVER as I used to have one - and it broke. This was a serious score as the retail on them is pretty pricey.

4 pairs of capri pants and 5 t-shirts for My sister.

2 pkgs of zip ties

3 necklaces and 1 watch (all new in their original packaging).

Numerous (dare I say it) Christmas decorations and a door wreath.

1 tall (new) candle that smells like citrus.

1 bunch of fake flowers (yellow, purple, green, and white) for My sister.

1 travel Yahtzee game.

1 Harry Potter pez (for My niece).

1 wireless set of earbuds

I think there were a few more things - but I cannot remember them now. All of this stuff - totaled out to $32!

It felt like garage sale prime day!

Is anyone here interested in watches? I've recently gained a heavy interest in them and have purchased a couple. I'm still learning about movements and the pros and cons of each, but for now, I'm starting with the aesthetics and size of the face, bezel, case, strap and strap closure. And of course, reliability. I'm learning about the history of some of the brands and even how some companies are moving towards eco-friendly construction, such as the Alpina Seastrong Diver Gyre that's made of recycled ocean plastic and apples (you read that right).

I love the idea of matching a wrist watch with what I wear or do; it feels...rich. It's one of those accoutrements that is probably unnoticed by everyone but me, and it's worth penny. Since I'm not rolling in disposable income, I'm starting with the low end of some of the lower luxury brands to get a feel for what I think of the company. Today I got a Tissot Couturier. It's a stainless steel case with a black face, silver-tone hands and hour markers, and orange minute markers with orange stitching on the black leather strap.

[clay]

I DO notice watches, on, well, almost everyone! I find them fascinating! I am going to google the recycled plastic & apples one.

You are, for sure, a watch connoiseur! Awesome!

My all time favorite is a Citizen's Eco Drive...stainless steel snap band, tiny diamonds around edge, and the face is mother of pearl....it is a gorgeous watch. My deceased, LTR partner gave it to me, as a last gift, about 13 yrs ago. It doesn't use batteries, rather works on movement. Everyone is always asking me if it is a Rolex...it looks that nice/expensive. As it was, this watch was almost a grand BUT we got it for a third (store closing/liquidation). I was actually looking for a Tag Hauer and saw that MOP face & KNEW it was for me.

Thanks for an interesting post!!!

a small batch of groceries

[Reach *BANNED*]

It was actually yesterday, but all of it was delivered today.

2 - 5 tier shelving units.

3 - 64 gallon totes with lids

All of this will be used out in the garage to organize the things I mentioned on the agenda thread (I think). Some of the items are already sorted and in totes - so I am hoping that the 3 I just bought will work - if not I will purchase a few more. I got all of this at Home Depot -and the prices were remarkably good.

[Gemme]

Do bills count LOL

Absolutely! Those bills provide you with something, be it a/c, cell service, food, housing, etc. If nothing else, they buy you time.

I wandered into the Today's Deals on Amazon and picked up a palette, some lip stuff and a craft kit. All were at least 50% off!

[VintageFemme]

A beautiful 'Like New' Swarovski phone case on Poshmark! I'm so excited to get it as I've been wanting one and looking for one forever but new, they are just ridiculously high. So yay!

My such a deal phone case arrived today and while it may or may not be a knock off and I'm kinda thinking it is, it's not the beauty I had hoped it would be and am really cranky about it. So much so that in my pissy and disappointed mood, I just went to the Swarovski website and bought a 'for real' one this time. But... the good news is, it was on sale! So now, I wait once more but at least I know this one will absolutely be the beauty I want.

I hit up Sprouts last night and brought home not only fresh veggies and fruit, but its Hatch Chili season. I came home with wonderful Hatch chili goodies. Chicken Hatch Chile sausages, Hatch chili veggie straws and cheese curds, (similar to crunchy cheese puffs, with a great chili punch!) Hatch Chile mac and cheese and some super tasty Hatch chili ranch dressing with avocado oil.

It's also friends and family at TJMaxx! So I hit up Home Goods. Clearance is in full swing at both stores. I came home with a galvanized elongated tub. I'll make holes in the bottom and turn it into a planter. And another galvanized double wine holder I'll do the same.
Also a bar of lemon grass soap. My bathroom smells a- mazing!
Hot peppered olives and chocolate smores macaroons.

I'm might hit up Marshall's this afternoon😮😎

A new cordless home phone with an extra handset and answering machine.

Here at My new place My cell phone service is very spotty- and it is more than annoying to have to sit in particular places and literally not move an inch for fear of the call dropping (laughing). So, I signed up for VOIP service through My cable/internet provider. The monthly price is more than reasonable and it is not a promotion so that makes it even better.

I might.. I just MIGHT do a little LEGO shopping! - I just finished the last one I had sitting around to build. Also, I realized this is the first time that I have not had something waiting in the wings to put together. I am not quite sure how that happened.

[Reach *BANNED*]

Well, I gave in and did it. I have a LEGO set that involves all things Christmas. I already have the Gingerbread House.. and I display it during the season. The other sets are - Santa's house, the Elf workshop, the Train station, and the Fire house. I decided to buy Santa's house. It will arrive this Wednesday!!

I had a feeling I would not be able to go long without having something to put together! The bottom line is, it is such a stress reliever for Me that I just have to have one on progress and most times one waiting in the wings to be built!

A laptop bed table so I can more easily work from bed when I need and/or want to, dumbbells for doing arm exercises, a Golden State Warriors snapback hat, a royal blue hoodie, and a 6 pack of A-shirts.

I don't usually buy this many personal items for myself at one time, but I was on a real roll today!

A quick stop at Wally World left me a little poorer tonight. I got cat food for Loki as there is an unfortunate 8 day window in between his auto delivery from Amazon and the empty container staring me in the face and that will not do at all. Of course, they didn't have the 3lb bag so I had to get a 7lb one.

I also got some craft goodies, cough syrup, juice, :ratio Keto friendly yogurt, bananas, blackberries and Cosmic Crisp apples. If you've never had these apples, they are better than Honeycrisp apples. I swear! In fact, they are a fusion between the Honeycrisp apple and the Enterprise apple. They are sweet, juicy, crisp and have a great shelf life.

I don't think I've ever seen them in the store! I have to get some, though, after this description. I love Honeycrisp apples! Maybe my bff in Indiana has an inside track.

- a Pumpkin Pie DQ Blizzard

No!

YES!!!

I don't think I've ever seen them in the store! I have to get some, though, after this description. I love Honeycrisp apples! Maybe my bff in Indiana has an inside track.

Look for this bag here (https://cosmiccrisp.com/resources/media-kit/photos/). They are running between $6-7 per bag but there are usually 6-7 good sized apples in each bag and they are hard, which I love. Soft apples feel mealy to me. If you have a sweet tooth, they are sweeter than Honeycrisp apples.

I bought nothing new today but I did book an appointment.

A soft-sided collapsible crate for my dog. I hope to be able to travel with her. We're going to try it out first here in the house, but the first overnight trip will be to my mom's at Thanksgiving for two nights.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

Holiday cards and stamps. Yes, it's terribly old fashioned, but it makes me happy. I had to get them kind of early so I would have a good selection. It's not really all that early though, I try to mail them out Thanksgiving weekend. I'm a little sad that we're not exchanging holiday cards here on BFP this year. I'm not sure, but I think this is the first year we haven't done it since I became a member.

I hate that you had to buy a walker when that should have been covered under her Durable Medical Equipment (DME) coverage

She already had a fancy walker that was aloted to her. She wanted the aluminum one. Got it at the thrift store, 10 bucks. She is getting some other stuff. She has come along way and doesnt need the equipment as much as PT, OT and home health. That is coming later this week.

OK, I shopped twice in two days....YIKES!! I have been craving pasta salads so I went to Hannafords and got a couple of different tubs of pasta goodness. I also picked up a couple of pre-made sammies and some frozen breakfast sandwiches. Sorry cholesterol....I'm just hungry!

I purchased these sheets in June from Wayfair and they were delivered yesterday.

https://i.postimg.cc/B66CL9Yh/Kumail-Floral-Microfiber-Sheet-Set.jpg

Back story: In June, Wayfair told me they ran out of these sheets and gave me a refund. Then yesterday they delivered not one, but two sets of sheets. Same color, same size, same pattern. I wrote them asking them to send me a label so I can return the extra set. She told me to keep them or give them away. I’ll give them to my grandniece. Her favorite color is blue and we have the same size bed.

A microwave popcorn maker.

I like this very much. Just add some kernels, place it the microwave, and I can make fresh popcorn without all the salt and other stuff that’s in the microwaveable bags. So good.

Sweet feed, horse feed, cracked corn, meal worms, and adult beverages for tonight and the game tomorrow. Oh and a roll of Gorilla Tape because tomorrow I am going to "monkey" around and try to seal the slit in my washing machine's door gasket. My last resort before calling the appliance repair man.

If the Gorilla Tape doesn't work, try this (https://flexsealproducts.com/#1) before you call the repair guy. Today, I paid my rent and bought another month of keeping my crap around.

Two Cosmic Crisp apples which were almost $4.00. However, I'm really looking forward to trying them.

Georgia...if you have Aldi's there, I saw a bag of them yesterday at mine...for like $5 but had several in it!

The bags up here are $6.48 at Walmart and they have 6-7 good-sized apples in them.

But...what do you think?

The Cosmic Crisp apples are just a little sweeter and a little juicier than the Honey Crisps. But most interesting, they are a bit mellower than the Honey Crisps. They are better! But only by a little, IMHO.

I think so too. I noticed that they keep longer and aren't as sensitive to damage as Honey Crisp apples are either. I will say that I think the Honey Crisp pairs better with peanut butter and cheese (not together!) than the Cosmic Crisps. I tend to eat those solo.

For thread compliance, I paid some bills today.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

- Dog medicine (yeah, I got 77 more Delta Skymiles for that one)
- milk, bread, potatoes, apples, croissants and ice cream (apples, croissants and ice cream on sale, gotta start economizing on those groceries)
- 2 Burger King regular cheeseburgers and a frozen Coke

[Femmewench]

[QUOTE=GeorgiaMa'am;1291018]- Dog medicine (yeah, I got 77 more Delta Skymiles for that one)

I recently learned that the Costco pharmacies will also fill pet prescriptions if of course they're people medicines. I knew CVS and Walgreens did. Costco pharmacies can't restrict their sales to members only; it's illegal (I think in all states) so even if you don't have a Costco member simply tell them at the door you're there for the pharmacy. What amazed me was how much lower Costco's prescriptions were versus both CVS and Walgreens. I was self-pay for a long time and the price differences were staggering in some cases.

3 Holiday-ish tops. You know the kind that don't scream Christmas. I can wear then when the weather is cooler. One is a hoodie and another is a grey thermal with white stars and the last one is retro Coke Cola white polar bears.

A combination vacuum/mop robot at a “Black Friday” sale for less than 50% off. Have wanted a robotic mop for awhile. The wi-fi was easy to set up, thank goodness, and it’s charging now. Will run it later today or tomorrow and will return it to the store if I don’t like it.

Yeah the eye drops were cheaper at Costco then the vet. My rat terrier Toby had medicine he needed for his eye at the time. I never knew that there was a vet just for eyes till my dog Toby.

I hope Toby feels better soon, Toolio.

Today I bought a steak lunch for two.

Ty....he was a dog I use to have but he only lived to 15but he had a hard life from the start and I guess you can say he was a rescue dog from the start. My mother didn't tell me but the vet didn't know if he would make it but he did and we had him for 15 years.....my mother said to me we were meant to save him. I was dealing with a lot when he got sick and had to be put down. Not many know this but I had my apendix rupture back then and I was in hospital for 16 days and was very hard on me....plus I was on wound vac even after went home and the doc didn't tell me till after all my complaining that the infection ate away at my stomach muscle and few months after first surgery I had repair. Sorry for rambling. I appreciate your kind words. I have a lot to be thankful for and I don't get why people use fake illnesses or whatever to take advantage of others. Ty to those who took the time to give me thanks for post I have made too.

I bought 6 fabric samples to figure out what fabric I'm using for a couch cover. I need something that will stand up to 3 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 people. It should be easy to clean, not hold on to fur, somewhat water resistant, and comfortableto sit on. We shall see if this miracle fabric exists.

[Toolio]

Lowes to get one of those fluorescent light bulb sleeves to make this lighted pole for a holiday penguin sign ma got to go with her lighted penguin. I am gonna put pole in upside down mini thick plastic painters bucket that I drill hole in and add some 1 inch pvc pipe to hold clear light sleeve and fill around pole on underside of bucket and maybe use foam on outside to look like pole in snow. Bought a battery powered blue rope light too to shove inside clear tube.....It's all designed in my head at the moment...lol

Microfiber ones can be tossed in the wash and are often non-slip, water-resistant and are comfy and soft.

Today, I have bought nothing. Not for work; not for myself. But yesterday, oh yesterday. The company card was burning and I picked up some extra deli items to stretch through the week and weekend including salmon, a curry orzo salad, 3 bean salad and roasted cauliflower.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

Another visit to the vet. Just a follow-up; Brittany is fine.

[Toolio]

I bought clear pink plastic bowl from party city. A small minnie mouse from a store here called Five Below. Styro foam glue, smaller styrofoam round to glue inverted bowl to an smaller one get glued to next size up to help support pink fairy light I inserted thru hole made in first round foam in bottom. Plastic faceted beads that purple ones stood out best when glued to bowl bottom and I glued bead to Minnie's hand and few in front of her to look like pile of ornaments. Minnie and tree got glued with this really good glue calledG-S hypo cement....on top of white tree I put this round minnie head that was off pen I got at party city... I don't know how you post pictures....
