Errand Frenzy!

This stainless steel toaster/oven was the object of my travels today! Ours died! This one is Black n Decker, stainless steel...aaahh! (KMart has one that is enamel white for same price.)
 
My clothes detergent was on sale @ KMart. Arrival found none w/bleach(like I use).Bummer...so, I found an associate,asked, got him looking...there were none! He was very helpful...allowed me to buy 100oz. for "old",non-sale price of 75oz.(my reg. size)....YEAH baby! So, I got +25oz. for $3.00 extra....guess the stars were "aligned" for me today......lol

Backstory - List of stops was: Publix for Lamar's med;Target for my Vit.D&Calcium combo; Staples to recycle ink cartridges;bank(need cash!);& WalMart for toaster/oven...WHEW! I'm tired just from writing this...lol   Ofcourse, whenever I'm near a Chic-Fil-A I MUST stop in and eat...YEAH! That was a yummy b'fast. LUV those mini-chick meals...
Now when I finally got to WalMart, Lamar called & said his "ordered" med was ready. Are you kiddin me???? I was about to get on my way home. Had to be @ Marc's to keep the grandkids bout l:30 and it was already 11:30 (I left home @ 8:30, oh yea). So, I apologized to Lamar and told him I wasNOT going back on the other end of town @ this point...I know, mean--maybe? Lamar excused my "gotta get home to rest" fit and agreed to pick up his med later this afternoon. Hallelujah! Thank goodness for a sweet, loving, understanding husband a 1000 x over!
I made it home with my "bargains" and all was good....until, I began having knee cramps...UGH. Somehow, I must have twisted my knee.
Was bothered w/that sucker all evening. Finally after doctorin w/blue ice AND Marc's "blue goo?"....it's all better tonight.
As I've related in writin many times....I   HATE  shopping! Today makes me reaffirm that stance....So, I may be actively searchin for a "Personal Shopper" to do this runnin thing!!! I long ago gave up the urge or "need" to shop....forget this mess!! I'd rather be fishin....or anything else.........LOL
What a day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LIFE Lessons .....Learning Again !!

Image
This blog is a confession and statement of "new" learning for me. The "darkness" of an "acute" illness, and the healing from that, has been a reality check in full measure! I'm a Believer. I'm one who praises God, prays all the time, and am confident of the Love of my Father. That statement made -- I am still filled w/human nature and it's quircks! We all get "comfortable" in our everyday lives and routines. Well. Mine has been blown apart w/this "healing" process.!! It's going much more slowly than I would desire, and so much seems more difficult, and "lost" a bit. There are books written, quotes out there, and we all kinda believe --don't sweat the "small" stuff. Pfffft! It's the "small" stuff that's giving me such tough issues right now. Go figure! Examples: energy to "move" and do my everyday routines; insecurity/discomfort w/the thought of driving a car (not

the "REST OF THE STORY"......

Image
I did soooo Love Paul Harvey. His stories were always so interesting.....and, he researched to bring a story to an often unknown ending. The "rest of the story" always let ya know.....the circle was closed on that topic for him. In that fashion....I wanted to do this blog. I love photography. I'm quite a happy amateur! Now, with Pinterest I get to see unlimited talent. This picture was one that "drew me in"....After I pinned it.....there were like 30+ other people who loved it too! This picture received the most pins on my boards. Just look at it....Never did try to track down the photographer. Only went as far as where the pin originated. Browsing pinterest boards is a fun pastime. I enjoy "following" pictures/quotes and such as far as I dare. In browsing.....I "fell into" a site. The photographer is TIMOTHY WALKER. A very eclectic range of photos. Behold! There was this picture among them. I gasped! (He has several other photos
