terrapin trivet

This is not a turtle. I did buy one and it is a trivet. HobbyLobby is having a 40% off sale. Plants and flowers are 50%. I know this because I saw several herds of young ladies each group following their bridezillas. All who were making bossy noises and grasping their coffees. I was in there because it was right by the Chinese restaurant that mom and I went for lunch. We wandered around the entire store. I found an apron with dogs pics on it. Several kitchen gadgets to replace the ones I have tossed out. I even found a double sided whirly gig as you know I just had to have it. Stopped at the Supercenter Walmart on Ten mile to pick up my grocery order.

Once home I had to love on the puppies. Clean up their messes and we all went outside. I tried taking photos but all I had was blurry photos. We stayed out for a while dogs and puppies running every where. My plan was to tire them out, it worked. They are feeling better, no more travel stress induced diarrhea. Nice little turds. However they had all their shots on the way to Idaho. The kennel cough shot had given the pups congestion and a cough. Lady got it first and it was gone the next day. Sister got it Friday and I have been shooting liquid antibiotics down their throats twice a day.

But they are little rambunctious characters, who are everywhere in the house. I get to play find the poop. And I usually find it in the office, nice little turds. I am trying to fatten them up. They eat about every 3 hours. I was giving them cooked rice cereal with goats milk and it was a life changer. I am going to give this to them on their second breakfast to put them asleep of hours while I go work in my office. I darken the room. No lights and soft jazz playing from Alexa. So far it is working but Friday afternoon was kind of trying. Puppies under foot, chewing on the books in the book shelf, trying to chews wires, wrestling. But I am enjoying them and they keep me moving.

Today I dug into both my filing cabinets and sorted through all the files. I decided to burn up all the statements that I saved when I paid off a bill, or closed an account. Dates started from 1992. Bills from stores that haven’t been around for years; Radke’s, Dale’s and Rocky’s medical bills that were paid off, statements on appliances I no longer have. It is time to let go. I am now waiting for shredder guy to come to town. I need to dispose of about 15 or 20 tax files. I kept the one from the year I last filed with Ron. yes let this dinosaur die and get busy changing into oil. My children will thank me when shuffling through the estate. HA!

And? I finally sorted through my parts book and ordered parts for my bike. I am needing to call 45 restoration to see about ordering a starter kicker spring. When we bought the bike in ’96 there was only the 45 restoration on the internet. When I started checking for parts that last couple weeks, I found that there are several sites. One which is in Poland and they had all the parts I needed. No I didn’t order from them. I didn’t want to find out what the conversion from their dollar to the US dollar. Shipping costs would be out of this world and probably get stuck somewhere in transit. nope and nope. So I am going forward with that. exciting.

Well I am signing off. Be happy I didn’t buy a bunch of stuff for you from Hobby Lobby. So many pineapples, pink flamingos, ceramic kitties, and guitar decorations. But? You probably have a Hobby Lobby near your chinese restaurant you should get out check on the sale. I like yard decorations.

I love you. Stay safe, hydrate.
