Lack of organization / Official grand opening of Harbor Freight

I do not know what has happened to me...I used to be so organized...I had a place for everything and everything in its place.  I need to go take my nurse practitioner the result of my labs both the ones I had done in Ciudad Acuña as well as those I had through Life Line Screening.

I have to find all my little notes and pieces of paper where I have my blood pressure readings written.  That has become problematic as I do not know where they are all at.  Last year I bought five calendars to keep up with different things and I can only find one of them.

I really need to keep up with these readings daily and not allow them to pile up.  Then, of course, I tell myself the same thing every time I have to go through this. When will I learn?

The official grand opening of Harbor Freight was Saturday but it has been open since late October.  I'm crazy but not that crazy to go anywhere as popular and looked forward to as this store was. The girl clerk told me there were hundreds of people there and they ran out of the free measuring tapes given out to the first 500 customers in record time.

I was going to buy one of their 14" electric chain saws on sale for $39.99 use my 20 percent off coupon for a grand total of $31.99 plus get a free bucket or at least that was the plan until I learned that you have to buy a separate machine to sharpen them...had no idea chain saws had to be sharpened!

I was hungry so went next door to Walmart to buy one of their $4.99 rotisserie chickens but wanted to pick some other items first.

I just had to take a picture of this HUGE...would you call it thermo bottle?  Feel free to correct me.



Here is my cart at the check out counter...


Unfortunately, by the time I headed out, it was already dark and I have poor night vision. Walmart had the cheapest gasoline price in town $2.159 a gallon for regular unleaded.


This cold spell has really helped me sleep though now the junkyard dog that guards his owners' lot in the corner has taken to barking late at night making all the other dogs do the same.

Since I went to bed early I was not able to make this post until today.  So have a great day!

Nervous Anticipation

I apologize to my wonderful readers who left me comments that I was not able to answer until today. It may take me a while but I do respond.

With doctors appointments, labs, out-of-town trips, and the Spurs games I am a little behind.  I have had four months to write down my daily blood pressure readings but true to my procrastinating ways waited until this morning to even start that task.  Considering I go to the doctor tomorrow, I say I will either have a late night or an early morning nervous fit trying to gather my information.

Good night,  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.


Spurs Corner

More than anything else I think I am a total nervous wreck in anticipation of tonight's game against the Golden State Warriors.  While I have high hopes we will defend our record of 40-0 at home, nothing would make them happier than to dash that.  Then again nothing would make us happier than to end their chase for the Bulls record.

If you happen to be a basketball fan...this is the game everyone hopes to be able to watch.  There is a lot at stake tonight for both teams,

GO SPURS GO!!!!!!
