On the interstate yesterday on the way home from Cullman, we saw a sailboat with a great name--Hot Guttered Bum. I laughed on and off for thirty minutes.
Then, he asked me about 12:30 about going to Sam's. I was shocked. He said he rescheduled. Sooo, we got ready and went out.
That place has changed it's layout since I was last there. Registers were everywhere. I got lost, really lost.
I had made a list of what I wanted, so we headed out to look for items. Two things I wanted were not in the store. We found the large bags of cups we use for drinking. They were a pretty pastel assortment--blue, yellow, pink, and lavender. I won't have to decorate the house for Easter, just sit these cups all over the place.
Claritin, Vicks, and Flonase , and two supplements, plus the cups were around $129. The Flonase was $20 for 6 bottles. Each has 144 metered sprays where the ones I have here are 120 metered sprays in each bottle. So, thanks, Sluggy. The two large, 3.53 oz. containers of Vicks Vaporub were a little more than one large bottle elsewhere.
The only items I got that were not the regular brand were Flonase, Claritin and cups. Claritin brand was almost $20 for a few tablets, whereas the off brand was only about $9 for two containers with 200 each, so 400 tablets for about $9. Prices were amazingly low. If I could put my hands on the receipt, I could tell exactly. I know it is here. I searched and refuse to search more tonight.
I asked him if we had gotten food to eat there. Yes, we had gotten hotdogs. We each had a slice of pizza and Diet Pepsi. I think it was the largest slice of pizza I have ever seen. We ate it in the car as we don't unmask to eat.
I gave Tommy two Publix bags to use in Publix when he goes in. So far, he has not used them. However, when we got to the car, he unloaded my electric cart and used the bags.
We stopped at Publix on the way home. I bought red potatoes, carrots, snack bags, pint freezer bags, apples, bananas, and strawberries. I should have bought another half-gallon of a2milk. Oh well, we know where the store is located.
Tommy washed the kitchen linens since it will rain all day tomorrow and I hate to ask him to do laundry in the rain. So, it is all done and I need to fold.
Thursday night, for dinner Tommy had chicken, and grape tomatoes and a salad. I had chicken and a whole tomato in a salad. He made his own dressing, and I had a bit of Miracle Whip, not as much as I would have liked. We have more chicken for lunch tomorrow. I will cook corned beef, carrots, cabbage, and potatoes for Friday.
The freezer over the refrigerator is stuffed, too stuffed! I told Tommy that on Friday he needed to unload it until he found meat to thaw for the next few days or for next week. I like to cook several packages of chicken at one time if I can.
Today, I had apple, banana, and strawberries and three vegetables--broccoli, tomato, and Romaine. I try to eat at least three fruits and three vegetables each day, more if I can.
We have watched Spartacus on TV and now we are watching Ben Hur. So, no Gunsmoke tonight. But, I do have an observation that I will share Friday night about Matt.
So, I got my Sam's fix and found another product I buy each month from Amazon that is almost half priced at Sam's. So, next time we go, I will buy a three-month supply and cancel the monthly order at Amazon.
