Another battle over the budget


Morning, hope all is well.

I’m supposed to be in bed, but you know how that works.

Duke and I have been busy working on the grocery order. He votes for his favorite treats to be added, of course. Then again so do I. However, mine are more expensive, and don’t bring me the same joy as his, so he gets to keep his.

As our needs evolve, then the budget has to evolve. This time, my husband needs medication. I do as well. The store is out of something that we both use daily, so in order to cover the cost of shipping, we are playing games there to. Why pay for shipping when adding a few dollars of stuff to the shipping order instead of the instore order will work.

Okay, I do have a 6 pack of my favorite olives on the order, I confess. My husband has an equal cost in his favorites as well. However we can do without, Duke comes first. He brings us both joy.

I’m still stitching, still reading, and still breathing. Take care, my friends, -L

Instant decaf iced tea rip old friend


Hey there my friends, I’ve been under the weather, I know. I have been in a constant battle lately with the mega store on their stock of instant iced tea. They don’t carry the decaf version anymore. I’m going to have to do it the old fashioned way.

Why do they need 58 varieties of toothpaste and twice as many of toilet paper? Why do they have those demented coffee pods up the wazoo, but not what I really need?

I know, I’m a whiny bitch. I know. I have to just be patient, and wait. Take care, -L

The department for lost souls…


I am only 19 pages in and I am crying my eyes out. Oh my.

Yes, tiktok with all of its chaos and such brought this book by Geezah Gobble to me. I am grateful.

Today I will be devouring it, and having a wee slice or two of my favorite cake to enjoy.

Take care, -L

Wow…. Just wow. I finished the book, and it is amazing. I need more. So much more.
