meo, I hope you were able to get that rollator cheap, they removed my ebay links.

Bella, you will LOVE the DeWalt. My cordless 3/8" drive ratchet blows nuts and bolts off like an air gun, and it charges in a flash!

I broke down & bought a drill & bits because this great bathroom over-the toilet space saver. Space saver wants you to secure it to the wall. It is going to look great. And I seriously need the help with storage.

I have no idea what the person who designed these apartments were thinking, but storage is really lacking & I have been having to be really creative but have broken down & bought things for storage. I do have to remember that rent is only $335, cable included. Makes up for a lot.

The deals from the Christmas in July sale came today. 6 boxes of penne & fetticini, pyrex set & rubbermaid containers, 2 storage towers, 1 for dishes & 1 for pot covers, vitamins, goji berries, maca powder & green superfood. These are supposed to get me healthier. We'll see.

Mountain Dew diet. We're hooked. I have eight six packs. No Dew after five o'clock tho, gotta limit that caffeine.

Gatorade G2. 4 bucks an eight pack on sale. Keeps his leg cramps away.

I used my new Capresso conical burr coffee grinder for the first time today.

After my dental appointment last week, I will be purchasing a Waterpik to supplement my daily flossing and purchasing smaller heads for my Sonicare toothbrush to get to the back molars.

And that is worth any price. Oh how I wished I'd taken better care of my teeth. But, it's partly due to the medications I had/have to take. They caused acid reflux which eroded my teeth. I hate these dentures.

I bought five short sleeve shirts and two pairs of chinos from LL Bean. I bought three books, reloading dies for my .45-70 Model 1873 Springfied carbine that I bought two weeks ago, Renaissance Wax (good stuff ) for other guns that I don't shoot, and moth balls to put into the intakes of vehicle air cleaners.

A pack rat or pack rats chewed up wiring in one vehicle. I had to have it taken on a truck for repairs. A few ours later they called me to tell me it was finished; the bill was only seventy-eight dollars. My neighbors drove me to town to pick it up after hours. When I got into it and turned the key it wouldn't start. I noticed that when the key was in the start position I could hear the ding-ding-ding indicating the door was open although it was closed. There's a short that they missed. Pack rats are so cute but so destructive.

My blood sugar was high so I need to have another test. My doctor told me to eat fish and salads and lose weight. I've been eating way less for the last two weeks. For several months I had been on a pasta and Coca-Cola diet, but I have had little pasta and no Coke for the past two weeks. I've bought fish to be eaten cold, primarily herring and surimi, as well as fish to cook. I have lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and Garbanzo beans for salads.

My AAA renewal is next week; it's well worth it.

I have lots of neat new things, but life would be easier if I hadn't had to buy the moth balls.
