Goodwill and the Dollar Tree...

Craig has been wanting to take me shopping and to lunch...
so we took off for town today...
a different town than the usual Paris...
they have a new Goodwill store and its right next door to the Dollar Tree...
and I found a couple of pillows...

this one is zippered and the pillow inside is stuffed with feathers...

they look good together...

and I found a dust ruffle, because I like the material...
it will become something else soon...
all on sale today...
49 cents each for the pillows and $1.19 for the bed ruffle...

and I found 3 tops, long sleeve for fall and a sweater...
the tops were half off...
$1.74 each...
this is pale pink...

my favorite yellow color...

and a navy blue...

this also came with a short sleeve shell sweater that matched it...
it was full price...
$3.49...
I did good...
;0)

and this is what I found at the Dollar Tree...
puppy pads for Charlie...
a clothes line, because I am always using rope on things in the garden...
a pair of kitchen scissors for DH to take to work...
he needs them to cut the thread on the sewing machine...
it sews the top of the bags closed...
and a couple romance novels...
the one is set in Paris in the 1800s...
sounds promising...

we stopped at walmart...
but you know what Downy, dog food and paper towels look like...
so I didn't take a photo of that...
;0)
I got so sick while we were in town, that I opted out of Taco Bell and did a hamburger happy meal instead...
Craig grabbed KFC on the way out of town...
and there is a complaint coming here...
he got a 3 piece chicken tender dinner...
what a ripoff!
the pieces were smaller than a chicken nugget!
almost $6 for 3 bites of chicken...
and they wonder why their parking lot is empty most of the time anymore...
der...

we had a good time, but as the day went on...
the sicker I got...
not sure what is going on, but its not fun...
I had this a couple of weeks ago...
there is a bug that has been going around...
but surely I wouldn't have gotten it twice!

home alone the next couple of days...
it will give me time to get better!
have a good evening and a great day tomorrow...
;)

time on the deck is never wasted time...

it was a very nice day yesterday...
nice enough to sit on the deck mid afternoon...

Daphne checking things out...

if everything is running right...
there should be music on here now...
its been way too long since I had a player on my blog...
but if you don't like it, it's located at the very top of the blog and you can turn it off...

this is what I see, paws and tummy...

its the cats' favorite place to be on the deck...

and if I get them watered...
the wave petunias look pretty good...

and then there's Charlie and his investigations...

we just sat on the deck and watched the birds...

they come and go and go and come...

and they eat all the time...

not unlike other members of this household...

Charlie likes watching the birds...
and he likes his new shirt...

I saw this the last time we were shopping and kept thinking about it...
went back to see if it was still there and it was...
and I got the football and a baseball for him...
along with a pirate rubber ducky for outside playtime...

see...
isn't that fun?
Bebe wore 0-3 months baby clothes...
but Charlie needs newborn or preemies...
he is so much smaller around the middle...

baby clothes?
yes, I buy my dog baby clothes...
SO much cheaper than doggie clothes and a lot cuter...
and they mostly have girl doggie clothes...
and my guy doesn't do pink...
and I have been getting him baby toys...
they are cheaper, too...
and super safe...
sewn on eyes and all that...
and some have rattles in them...
so they make noise...
and he loves them...

we had those fresh green beans for supper last night and will doing them again tonight...
you can never eat too many of them...
Craig wants to take me to town today...
not sure if that's happening or not...
just not in the mood...
but that could change...
depends on how I feel when I get up again...
and yes, I am up in the middle of the night again...

went to bed way too early...
so, have a good day...
and do something fun and creative...
