OOOOPS Shar too late, already went to town..loops would have also been the perfect solution..oh well, another time...

the men at Home Depot know me well, keep asking, 'can I help you, can I help you' shisssh I know where everything is more than they..needed a mini hinge, asked one girl who kept following me around trying to give me a Home Depot credit card lol where I could find them, no they didn't carry such things, more in craft line, go to Michaels or small craft shop..2 seconds later I went and got her, showed her where they were..

I've got materials for one wall, wallboard, put in new window and they didn't put the trim.. quarter round for staircase, wood for quilt rack..picked up a pkg of 'geum' seeds and new batteries for fire alarm and a roll of linoleum to paint a new matt...

Walking out of Home Depot, a couple of the men said "we'll see you at 7:00 tomorrow morning right..you should be out of supplies by then.." now do they know me or what?


Walked into the grocery store only needing pop and endust..was right on target with my set budget for working materials this weekend..at the entrance were 2 men who volunteer for Parks and Recreation Dept. selling $20.00 calendars..a draw every 2 weeks, gifts/$$$ total $6,500 so had to have me one of them...made me off budget...drats..close but no cigar!


I'm walking AnnMarie through the aisles trying to find a gallon jug of something..no go, only litre glass jars..so ask the manager and he says well perhaps in his order next week he can see if there is anything that comes in gallon glass jars & would order...'shucks no' I say, 'I'm a 'do it now' kind of person...who wants to wait till next week for a squirrel feeder...' they all got a kick out of that..people must find me unusual..

Judy, surely you can stretch your birthday month just a tad longer..a mother/daughter breakfast how wonderful..

Kind of hungry, didn't have supper, only a coffee this morning no wonder I'm hungry..off to put a roast on, bread machine and then get those tools out...
