I got a really neat femme necklace from this Etsy shop. She also has butch, trans and her shop namesake necklaces: card carrying lesbian. I don't know if she has the same necklace I bought but she has several different ones.

Oh, she also included, free of charge, a femme keychain.

I will check out the link. Thanks for the tip.

I had to shell out money for new glasses today. Thankfully I have good vision insurance, but it still cost me $200 out of pocket.

There is a new Bulk Nation right next door to the vision center, so of course I had to go in and check it out. I really like this market. This from their
website, "Because we buy in bulk, we are able to pass on immense savings directly to our customers," explains Clay Donato, Bulk Nation's president. "Our products are delivered straight from the truck to the shelf, so we carry very little backstock. This ensures the freshness and quality of the food products in our stores.

At Bulk Nation, you'll find over 3,000 specialty food items to choose from. The store offers 96 different spices, 40 different types of unique flours and sugars, 35 types of coffee, 24 loose-leaf teas and 10 different types of olive oils and vinegars – all sold from bulk. The wide range of food categories also includes beans, rices, pasta, soup mixes, nuts, dried fruits, candy, snacks, trail mixes, specialty drinks and much more.

Searching for something a little more unique and unconventional? Bulk Nation has a huge selection of specialty products, including freshly made nut butters, organic fare, protein powders, local raw honey and more, making the store a prime destination for people with special dietary needs.

We try to stay up on what's new and make our product range as eclectic as possible, while still meeting the needs of the conventional customer as well, says Donato."

It's nice to be able to buy only the amount I need of a product in the immediate future, as well as not having to buy the packaging as well.

So long story short, I bought dried unsweetened coconut, dried plantain chips, pumpkin seeds, dried beet chips, dried goji berries, Brazil nuts, and dark chocolate nibs. All for $20.

I will mix this in with some sunflower seeds and pecans that I already have and make an awesome trail mix to snack on.

You make the coolest things to eat. I wish I lived closer to you. I would finagle an invite to dinner if I could!

:blush:

Awe thank you Anya, that means a lot to me. I would certainly invite you for dinner, no finagling necessary. :)

Yesterday, I was able (with the help of yet another former boss and good friend) to go over to the dmv to clear up my traffic incident report, but also to go grocery shopping....which I'm grateful for her help because it snowed over a foot, last night, and we will get at least another foot of snow before late afternoon.

But, yes, lots of groceries ( B a c o n, lots of meat, fresh fruit and vegetables and.... candy). :)

Yesterday I went to a super big thrift store in Asheville..

I got four pairs of work pants (my primary reason for going) 2 scrubs and 2 regular since some clients don't like scrubs

A really cute hippy skirt..can't wait for summer now

An over the door storage caddy for the iron and ironing board.

A really nice LL Bean spring jacket for hiking

I'm sure there was more but I'm drawing a blank lol

I went to an awesome local used bookstore to look for some Robert Frost...and found awesome books about Asheville history instead.

I'm so excited. I used to spend hours at the library looking at the local history books.... :)

I got two small storage carts, some magazines and a book on The New York Times front pages from 1851-2016 and a book called 10,000 Salads so I feel confident that I will find some that I enjoy, plus some stain cleaner for work and a tee and two skirts. This morning, I picked up some groceries and a sub.

Filled up the gas tank,
Postcard stamps.
White wine.
Carrots, hummus, and cilantro.

Seems one pair just won't cut it when it comes to my eyeglasses these days! I went in my my second appointment today to see about getting the script on my new glasses adjusted so I can actually see out of them, and ended up having to purchase a second pair.

As was suggested by a couple of kind BFP folks it worked out that it is better for me to get two different pair of glasses. One pair will be the computer lenses with a lower reading area like I've worn for the last couple of years which I will wear when reading, doing stuff around the house and when using the computer. The 2nd pair with polycarbonate (safer because I am already legally blind in one eye), transitional lenses for driving, mowing the lawn etc. with a slight distance correction and a smaller reading field.

I do not feel I need them for mowing or driving, but she wants me to wear them more for protection for my good eye. She, (the Dr.) told me about a patient she had a few years ago who was legally blind in one eye. He was out in his yard and his neighbor was mowing. The blade hit a rock just right and sent it flying straight into the good eye of his patient blinding him permanently. So I guess I will do as she suggested and wear them.

So now you all know all about my eyeballs! Lol! :sigh: I feel much better! ;)

Yesterday we took a road trip to Olympia and at Orcas Bookstore and I bought postcards and greeting cards.

Edamame in the bags

It felt like my money was literally dripping from my pockets today. I paid all of my monthly household bills, except for truck insurance and Hulu which are on auto pay. I also put in my meat order for the month, and bought $100 in other groceries e.g. veggies, salad stuff, 1.5 lbs of fresh catfish fillets, 1lb. of grassfed ground beef (on sale for $6.27), cheese, fruits, 2 boxes of ziplocs, and a 12 pk. of Scott tissue. :blink:

Oh also 3 bottles of Kombucha, which is much too expensive to buy, but I love what it does for me and I'm hooked on it. Fingers crossed...this should be the last I have to buy because my gallon will be ready soon.
