Today’s Question:
When’s the last time you physically assembled/put together something, anything
(could be furniture, but doesn’t have to be) ?
A cabinet two days ago.
Extra Credit:
Do you keep cold/allergy symptom remedies (medications) on hand/around-
such as decongestants, antihistamines, or cough syrup ?
Yes
Bonus:
How many sweatshirts and/or pairs of sweatpants do you own ? I just have sweatpants. They are kind of like yoga pants. I have about 4 pairs. Oh I do have zippered sweatshirts…dozens of new ones Hey they were about $3.00 each
How many of those have school or team names on them ? None.
Just for Fun:
Which sorts of products (if any) do you buy “extra” of, stock up on-and/or buy in bulk ? What don't I Paper goods, food products, office supplies. cleaning supplies, health and beauty products.
More often due to finding the item on sale (a good price)-
or because the item is difficult to find in stores (a rare discovery) ?
Sales for my basic items. But there are a few things that come to mind because they may stop making them. My husband bought his "lucky" lures by the dozen about 6 years ago. It's a good thing since they don't make them anymore We both buy extra t-shirts when they go on seasonal sale. We have lots of folded up t-shirts and zippered sweatshirts put away.
Happy Monday December 8, everybody-and welcome to QOTD.

Happy Monday December 8, everybody-and welcome to QOTD.
Today’s Question: When’s the last time you physically assembled/put together something, anything (could be furniture, but doesn’t have to be) ? Probably the complicated "box" at work, one of those that has more fold-overs than it should need. Took me a while to figure it out.
Extra Credit: Do you keep cold/allergy symptom remedies (medications) on hand/around- such as decongestants, antihistamines, or cough syrup ? Not as much as I should. I think I need to stock up.
Bonus: How many sweatshirts and/or pairs of sweatpants do you own ? Oh, I'd say 5 or 6 with tops and pants total. How many of those have school or team names on them ? None.
Just for Fun: Which sorts of products (if any) do you buy “extra” of, stock up on-and/or buy in bulk ? A particular lipstick - must have 6 tubes right now. Also, instant oatmeal. Buy powdered milk in bulk for my bath (nice for skin). There's lots more... More often due to finding the item on sale (a good price)- Yes. or because the item is difficult to find in stores (a rare discovery) ? That, too.
Have a delightful day, C-D peeps.
Thanks, Cloven. 'Here's wishing everyone a great week.
Today’s Question:

Last wknd. when I put the cleaned shelves & such back in fridge.
Extra Credit:
Do you keep cold/allergy symptom remedies (medications) on hand/around-

Yes, though I only need them a couple times a year.
Bonus:
How many sweatshirts and/or pairs of sweatpants do you own ?
How many of those have school or team names on them ?
3 sweatshirts (one of which has name of college my father taught at), 2 sweatpants.
No sports teams.
Just for Fun:

Paper products, as well as seasonal treats that can't be found other times of year.
More often due to finding the item on sale (a good price)-
or because the item is difficult to find in stores (a rare discovery) ?
The latter, as my tastes are rare & specific, so the particular items are tricky to locate in my area.
Today Is:
Brownie Day-Love 'em, so chewy & dense with sweetness.

-Barbara Kingsolver ^Found this saying on a box of tea.
Today’s Question: When’s the last time you physically assembled/put together something, anything (could be furniture, but doesn’t have to be)? I assembled some tabletop Christmas decorations a couple of days ago.
Extra Credit: Do you keep cold/allergy symptom remedies (medications) on hand/around- such as decongestants, antihistamines, or cough syrup? No. I rarely get a cold, and when I do, I rarely take a medication for it. It's been several years since I last bought a bottle of antihistamine tablets. I threw the bottle out eventually because it was way past the expiration date and was just taking up space in my cabinet.
Bonus: How many sweatshirts and/or pairs of sweatpants do you own? I have 3 pairs of sweat pants, which I only wear around the house and I have several sweatshirts. A few of my sweatshirts are nice, and I wear them when I'm out and about, but the rest I only wear in the house to keep warm in winter. Edited to add: Oops! I forgot that I do have one college sweatshirt. It's a DePaul University shirt that belonged to my friend's dad. Funny, I don't have any articles of clothing with my own alma mater on them. I need to do something about that! How many of those have school or team names on them? Zip. Two of my sweatshirts are customized with my own surname on them, though.
Just for Fun: Which sorts of products (if any) do you buy “extra” of, stock up on-and/or buy in bulk? More often due to finding the item on sale (a good price) - or because the item is difficult to find in stores (a rare discovery)? Toilet paper and wine. For completely unrelated purposes, of course.

Today Is: Green Monday I'm too darned busy to take advantage of the sales. Pretend To Be A Time-Traveler Day Haha. Sounds fun! Brownie Day I make the best from-scratch brownies! Constitution Day (Uzbekistan, Romania) Let's hear it for Romania! -and the start to Computer Science Education Week Boy, I could sure use a class in this. I'm not very knowledgeable about computers, software and the Internet. I wish I had the time to take a class and learn more.
Have a great week, everybody!
