Not much going on...


At one time I knew what this is called but I have long since forgotten. I do think it is beautiful.

I have did very little this day other than fixing food and washing dishes.  I did go to Walmart and Tractor Supply with my daughter.  I had not exactly forgotten an item or two at Walmart, but was just sure I had some left only to find that I didn't.  Then I also got a couple more items.  Do you always find 'other stuff' when you go to walmart.  I do, not that they aren't needed, just that I don't have to buy them then.  But I get them in case something happens and I can't get back for some reason.

Before Covid hit, I had started buying some things ahead, such as toilet paper, till I would not have to buy them in winter.  Less to fool with in the cold.  I have not did that here, but I will probably start with a few things that I have to buy all the time.  I have several things that are delivered by amazon.  I like that because it is less I have to shop for, less I have to carry out of the store and into the house. 

But during it all, I only did pick up one time.  I would like to do that now for some of the bulkier items, but hate the idea of having to be somewhere at a certain time.  Cause again, I never know what is going ot happen. Most mornings go smoothly, but not all.  Still, I do want to try it again.  Did you do pick up, and do you still do it?

  3. i have never picked up, still go in the store to get groceries. But I also got a lot of things during covid, they all took up an entire other room. It was so hard to get so many necessities then!

  4. We never did do pick-up. We always stock up when we see a good sale.

  5. When I last visited America I spent a whole afternoon wandering around the local Walmart (don't have them here). I came away with a trolley full of stuff that I brought home and gave away as gifts. It was fun!
    I have never done a pick-up but do like to keep a good stock of things in the stores cupboard.

  6. Pretty flower! We try to have a stock of some paper goods, especially since Covid. I would like to try to stock my pantry with some items for this winter. I will not go out driving if it snows. Happy Sunday, have a wonderful week!

  7. We have picked up several times but most of the time we go in to shop. I always try to have extra essentials on hand. Also when there is a good sale I do stock up for those times I don't want to brave the people or the weather.
    Going shopping has become part of our "Wednesdate"..Trying to make it a bit entertaining...

  8. I like going to Walmart and I almost always find what I need there. I haven't done pick-up but my DIL gets most of her things delivered to the door. Convenient.

  9. I do pick up at Walmart, it is easier. I don't mind being there at a specific time.
