Thrift Store Shopping, Free Rollator, Oats Cheap

I saw a thrift store as I just went along for a ride as Tommy went on n errand. He agreed to stop at a thrift store on the way back. I found two pieces of Corning Ware. I got tiny skillet, Corning ware casserole type thing, a cup, and a pair of socks for $7.24. I think. The socks are black trouser socks. They are too short to wear with any of my present pant, but they were $1 with a percentage off.

I like CW. Both the skillet and casserole are very small. I will use the little casserole thing for microwaving oats. Tommy is resistant to the idea of oats overnight in the Crock pot. He whined he does not know if he wants to eat them that many days in a row. I explained I am not going to make the crockpot full. Besides, he can skip a day. Presently, he eats the same cold cereal every morning. I would make oats in the crockpot sooner. But, until yesterday, I had no oats. Still I have no sugar! Yes, I will eat sugar. Also, I have no cinnamon.

There were no cooking utensils, just forks and spoons and the plastic claw-like things for dipping spaghetti. There was very little cooking stuff on the housewares aisle. No lids at all!

I saw a bin labeled "scarves," looked and there were none, just odds and ends. I need a black scarf. By this time, I had covered little ground, just stood and waited as other people with grocery carts and I tried to get past each other. As I was hurting and Tommy was in the car, I got into an interminable line that finally got to the register.

Today, I found the 42 ounce cannisters of Quaker old Fashioned Oats for $3--great price. I bought one canister for $4.98 out of desperation. Then, I saw this unadvertised deal.

Sunday, the guy brought the rollator to me. We got it out today, and I love it. It is such a pretty color--Plum with sparkles in the paint or finish, sort of like subtle glitter. With this, I can sit down, whereas, my last walker had no seat. Plus, it did not have four wheels, only two. Walking does not hurt so much with this. I am not going to use it often, but I will in certain circumstances. One thing I have against walkers is that I am bent and looking at the floor when I use one.
rollator was already adjusted taller than Tommy's, and I had him adjust it even taller. I stand straight.

I need the bag that hangs under the seat and the bag that hangs onto the back piece. Tommy wants a drink holder. He wants it for carrying coffee.

Last night, I cooked the pork loin in the pressure cooker. I am absolutely certain the handles were aligned. However, the handles were about 1/2 inch off center. The pork, carrots, and onions were burned to a crisp. Only three carrots were not dead. The rack is black and so is inside of the cooker. Abut a cup of liquid escaped all over the stove. It's a mess and still not cleaned up, so that has to be done. We are having with bbq sauce to sort of tamp down the scorched flavor of the remaining meat.

The portion we ate last night had very little scorch. I am quite sure it will be stronger tonight. The quarter inch that stuck to the rack will have to be soaked off in a bit.

It is down in the low 40s and I still get hot at night. I only need something to cover my skin when I am up, so I am going to Dollar General to see the things they advertise as $10. Maybe nothing. These will not be worn in public.

I am through writing anything tonight as I need to color my hair, clean the pressure cooker, and get leftovers out to eat. I had sugar, I would eat oats. Maybe I will just put jelly and butter in the oats. I have done that before and not because I was out of sugar. I have raisin, too.
