Hi Potties! I'm ready for spring.....
Katie - See you have weather coming your way. Too bad it can't make up its mind anywhere in the country. I wish we could get regular gas for $3.71 - already close to $4/gal. last time I was out. No idea how much it's gone up since Tues. morning when I was out. Probably should have topped off my tank on then.
Shelly - It was so pretty last week that I took a chance & put my 2 ferns outside. It gave them a little sunshine & some rain on Wed. when we had some showers. I'll have to bring them back inside late Fri. since we're being threatened not only with freezing temps, but there's a chance of snow showers early Sat. It may warm back up on Mon. & if it does I'll put the ferns back out. I'm glad the daffodils & hellebores don't mind cold weather but I was just getting bloom back on my camellias & they don't like freezing temperatures one bit.
If Terry said OK to new curtains, maybe you should buy them before he changes his mind. Men do that when we least expect them to. Did you buy the bedroom set locally? They shouldn't have a problem with local deliveries.
Sales at the booth are mostly low dollar but at least they're somewhat steady. Feb. was the lowest sales I've had in ages but at least it covered the rent.
The tapes are a giveaway - no market for them but at least this keeps them from going to the dump. Just have to set a time & place to get together. There may be more at the old house but I haven't made it a point to look for them yet.Gordon - I can remember a time when the stations only changed prices when they got a fresh shipment of gas - now they raise the price at any time the mood strikes them. Gives them bigger profit margins doing it that way but it's not considered price gouging - I consider it double dipping at the least.
Glad Sylvia is healing. Slow healing is a problem for Bear too. Just another issue diabetics have to deal with.I had my 6 month appointment with my pulmonologist early Tues. so since I was getting low on canned cat food I decided to go down to Woodstock & see if either of those Walmarts had canned food in stock. Zac had already checked the Jasper store that usually has food in stock & the shelves were bare. The 1st Woodstock store had no store brand in stock. I got lucky at the 2nd store & found 2 boxes of house brand cans. I grabbed both of them so I'll have enough food for the next couple of weeks. I haven't been in a Sam's Store in years but decided to check there just in case they might have any food at all. I was in for a surprise - they no longer give a 1-day pass for non-members to shop, but they didn't have a single can of cat food by any manufacturer. Really was a shock.
I haven't done anything useful since Tues. but change the sheets & see that cats, birds & fish got fed. May check the mail on Fri. if I don 't do anything else since I should have a book waiting up there for me. As nasty as the weekend is supposed to be, I may not do anything but feed the birds.
Everybody take care & hide from any bad weather that comes your way. Later.
Susan
