Be A Goat & Other Random Silliness

 


Let's all "goat" for awhile. Ok?

Y'all be proud of me as I haven't set foot in a grocery store all week(so far).  I might hit the discount outlet Friday as I am going a little stir crazy and I am out of milk for my tea.
I didn't even do a pretty good Ibotta Bonus($5 on 15 rebates)this week as it would have meant going to Walmart to get that sucker done and the thought of Walmart during the first week of the month(EBT crowds)just had me say in my head, "Nah....I'm good."  I just don't want to be around random people right now.

I'm working on about 6 different blog posts but nothing is at the point where I feel it's presentable for public consumption.  This just popped into my head.......

 

I wonder how much that company had to pay Orson Welles to do those commercials.  I am sure it wasn't cheap(like the wine was). lol

I have so many projects(besides the blog)rattling around in my head it's not funny.  Ok, it  IS funny!  Maybe because the snow is FINALLY melting I can sense Spring is around the corner.  Of course after I wrote that I put Chester out and there are snow flurries again. argh!
I kept track and in February we had 5 WHOLE DAYS where it did NOT snow!  That's 23 days where it did snow....from flurries all the way to 18 inch days.  And it didn't warm up enough to melt anything until this past weekend so there are still piles around the yard.
We may not have gotten the usual 100 inches of snow per Winter like when we lived in the Poconos before here but it's been a hard Winter season anyway.

I got word that my only Aunt who got Covid and ended up in the hospital is now better and back home.  My cousin told me she was sick and going into the hospital early in Feb. and then I didn't hear anything for a long while(I figured no news was better than bad news, right?)so I finally messaged her again.  Her mom is out of the woods and recovering at home now which is great!  Auntie is 85, the same age as my mom would be if she was still alive.  Us Bowmans are tough old birds and it takes a lot to kill us off I suppose. 8-)))

And tell me what the hell is this and why?


This was at Rite-Aid for Halloween.  A skeleton with a mermaid tale.  WTF?! I guess the people who design this seasonal crap are running low on ideas.  No wonder they had multiples of this leftover once the Halloween stuff hit 75%....or was it 90%?, I can't remember.

Strawberries are starting to appear in the stores now(and not those tasteless out of season and overpriced ones).  I got 3 containers last week at the Produce Outlet for $1.99 each.  I think I'll eat the last one for lunch today.  

I am so ready to go somewhere but still no Covid shot for me even though I am 1A due to health issues.  The set up in PA is ridiculous!  90% of places offering the shots don't even have a waiting list and the ones that do, their lists are so full they aren't even accepting folk onto the waiting list for an appointment.  I spend at least an hour every day having to check each individual vaccination site for an appointment slot.  It's so frustrating!  Even the health system I use is NOT vaccinating their patients.  It's a massive organization so all their vaccine is still dedicated to getting all their staff inoculated.  I am SOOL for the time being.
My PCP isn't advocating for me(and really if  you are a high risk patient your PCP should be advocating for you!)and the organization's website and my PCP constantly say there are no available appointments as they have no vaccine.  So I go to my specialist yesterday and she tells me no, they ARE vaccinating patients at a certain facility you just have to go to the website(but you go there and it's just a "sorry, no vaccine available" message).  It's maddening as you can't get a straight answer out of anyone!  And I really don't know if one hand knows what the other is doing....

Ok, I didn't mean to turn this into a rant so I'll stop now.
I'm off to go work on something easy...maybe I'll clean out my q envie as that won't take long and I'll feel like I accomplished something. lolz

What's going on in your world?
