Grocery list

 How do you write a grocery list? I used to write them on paper but always seemed to forget them when I went to the store. I started doing them on my phone which has it's own set of problems.

Once I accidentally deleted the entire list half way through my shopping. Luckily I remembered what else was on the list.

On a recent trip to Walmart, I stopped at the pharmacy first to pick up a prescription. While I was waiting I pulled out my phone to look at my list. There wasn't much on it but one item had me very confused.


Just what the heck are Baby sprinkles supposed to be. I told the girl in the pharmacy that I hated auto-correct and we laughed over the list item and wondered just what it could be. I walked through the entire store trying to figure it out with no luck.

After I got home I was doing some cleaning and noticed the bottle of low dose aspirin on the counter and it hit me. "Baby Aspirin". I got my phone out and added it to the list for my next shopping trip. It again auto-corrected to Baby sprinkles. Apparently I left one of the "i's" out of aspirin so it corrected to sprinkles. I don't get it though because asprin is way closer to aspirin than it is to sprinkles.

A get well card

 Recently Pam from Life through my eyes posted about her grandsons accident. She gave an address for anyone that wanted to send him a get well card. I came up with the perfect plan


Duct tape on the front of a plain card with the words "They say duct tape fixes everything.

And the inside:


I took the pictures at night so the lighting wasn't very good but you get the idea.

Again with the parking

 It seems that it's becoming a habit. People just don't care about how they park.

I looked out the window at work and again someone was parked slanted while all the other cars were pulled in straight.

Then there is this one who just made their own parking space. My car is parked in the last spot 
I guess people just don't care any more.

It came

 Friday 8/21 I got home from work and it was on my porch.


What is it you ask? It's the computer I finally broke down and ordered. I was a bit nervous about having it delivered while I was at work. I've never had a problem with porch pirates but there's always a first time. 
I only ordered the tower because I already had a monitor, keyboard and mouse. I got everything connected and then went to try and sign in the two browsers I used. It kept telling me to check my internet connection. I did check and it said I was connected. <SIGH> wait till tomorrow.

The next morning all was good. I got my Cricut installed and now it's just a matter of figuring out what other things I need to install. 

Oh and yes, I'm writing this post on the new to me computer. (I purchased a refurbished so it's not really new, just new to me) I so missed typing on a real keyboard.
