Friday

  • (I have no idea how this bullet got here or haow to get rid of it!) Thursday night, after dark we took a spin around the neighborhood to  see other Halloween decorations. It turns out the we had the second best display and lights. Now, we realize that we have four tiny blinking lights on four stakes with a witch and jack o lantern. So, our display is not so spectacular.  The white ghosts in the trees look better at night than in the day. 

For Thursday night dinner Tommy had another two cups of the soup with lots of meat and vegetables. I had a small can of chicken breast with sweet relish and MW. I also had a can of asparagus. Tommy does not like asparagus. I only like it right out of the can--no heating. One more soup serving awaits. He said to freeze it. 

Thursday, I bought another two sets of the shelves that hang from a shelf. This will expand the running feet available for food and will reduce the headroom for food. There is no use having a shelf with room above soup cans and no way to use it. I don't like to stack pop top cans on each other. I am afraid of a lid failure. And, there is no way to adjust the space between shelves. Plus, cans can slide where there is no back to the shelves or sides. The hanging shelves have back and side.

As I left the bank yesterday, I saw a box of masks. I asked the guy if I could have a mask. He said I could and I got into the car with two in my hand. I did not mean to get two when I asked for one. I have managed to NOT buy masks, so far. I only take one, usually. I wash masks! If I want two, I ask for two. This is the first time I have gotten more than one. But, I saw a woman taking a handful. 

Friday,we picked up two boxes of food. Here is the two added together for the tally.

  • 2 gal. milk
  • 6 lbs cheese slices
  • 2 quart of Yoplait Strawberry Yogurt
  • 2 pack of hot dogs
  • 6  lbs. chopped chicken
  • 2 quarts whole eggs
  • dozen loose apples
  • 10  lbs. potatoes 
  • 4 huge yellow onions
  • huge bag of raw spinach
  • bag of Romaine
  • 2 loaves of expensive loaf bread  
  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 2 lbs. chicken filets
I bought a couple of tomatoes so we can have salad for dinner

Okay, one place slung in two of those boxes, so in actuality, we got three boxes. There are too many things not good for us--processed cheese, hot dogs, sugar in yogurt. I may give some of this away rather than freezing it. Okay, I gave a away both quarts of eggs and Tommy kept the third gallon of milk. 

We took a whole box, plus 2 quarts eggs, and minus milk to Piggly Wiggly and gave it away to a woman leaving her car to shop. She was thrilled! So, that felt good to pass it on. I hope it helped her to save money or buy other things. 

Now, before I start dinner, I am going to bag and freeze the chopped chicken breast and divide the cheese and freeze it. Hotdogs and milk are in freezer. It's 5 pm. Dinner will be salad with chopped chicken. Tommy reminded me of salad, so YAY!

The hanging shelves are working out for making the set of shelves more useful by filling in the high space on each shelf. I got all of those in place. Tommy will go through the rest of the Halloween stuff and see what there is to put out. 

So Halloween continues...lol. It is 83F at 5 pm.





Tommy died

I am distraught! He died at 12:15 am on 3-14.
