D D Coming to a WalMart near you

Tracie took me to WallyWorld yesterday.
We left around 3 ......well maybe not 3. That's the time I walked out my door over to her driveway where she was  l i e s u r e l y  removing bags and bags and a few boxes of stuff from her car and putting them into her mothers car that is already a storage unit and some went into the house.
Tracie moves slower than molasses running up hill on a freezing cold day.  I shit you not!
She was making room for moi to sit and some room on the backseat for the purchases.
If I haven't said it before , I will again.........Tracie is a hoarder. :0(
This occurs every time I go somewhere with her. Usually I have something under my ass that she forgot to pick up. It was a flashlight this time.....last time her cell phone which she was happy to locate.
Hadn't been able to find it.  It was under the pile she removed from the front seat. I shit you not!
In the arm rest thingie between our seats she has a variety of items. Sprite twist off bottle caps is one of them.
I'm talking a pile and they are always falling off their pile and she rearranges them which takes TIME.
Sooooooooooo yesterday I got brave enough to ask her why she kept those.
You ready for this ?????
She use to put them on her Sprite bottle returns before she put them into the redemption machine.
Yeah...I asked another question.  Do you still do that?  Good question she said.
No, but occasionally I find myself saving these up again.   I shit you not!
Oh my efffin word.
 Three weeks in a row her apartment manager has come back to check out her apartment and is still not satisfied with what they are seeing. These things needs to get up off the floors, this counter needs to be cleaned......I'll be back next week to check on what you have done.
This is a one time a year inspection.  When you are on Section 8 in MA this is allowed. 
Two thirds of her rent is paid by the state.
Presently Tracie is paying for TWO storage units, which she herself describes as chalkablock full.
While Tracie does have medical issues and has since she was born.....it's not her heart nor her limbs.
She has a BIG heart......bought my grands Logan and Trevor some shirts for school yesterday and also one for Logan's friend Kenny.  She also picks up items $12 and under on sale all year long to donate for children to have gifts at Christmas. She had trouble locating all these items last year in December and I am sure she didn't find them all . Good thing there is always next year. :0)
We got back in my driveway a little after 6. Tracie does not do the highways.
She travels all back roads and I didn't know where I was half the time.
Never have driven on some of these roads she takes me on. Oh well, new sights.
I walked from one end to the other in WalMart and back again as I remembered things I had passed by already.  Still I forgot the birdseed.  It was out of sight in the patio area outside some doors I learned.
My puppies were barking so I fore went that area this time.
Other WalMarts have it indoors. Not this one. sigh!

Got to get to vacuuming an area under hubby's old recliner. Son Terry is giving me one of his in much better shape.  If my son Randy needed it he would have fanagled his way into ownership of the recliner.
He did go  some distance in the pouring rain to load this on his pickup as well as a 2 year old bed and boxspring and mattress which I was offered first, but he needed ............so he said.
Needless to say........... I am not happy.  :0(
I wanted it to replace Jill's mattress that is over 10 years old.

Jill and Butchie were not home when I got back home. An hour or so later they came through the door with goceries to make supper.

Also .................while I was gone....Sonny and Deb are up from FL and stopped in. :0( Missed seeing them.

Have that sweater I wanted to give them to take to RI for their new grand daughter.

They are here to sell her deceased father's house just a mile from me. Meeting with realtors.

Hopefully they will be going to RI more than once to see the baby and will take it there for me.

It's that time of the day when most people have had their shower and are dressed.

Don't want to be caught like this if they come back.

Ohh almost forgot. My Cheryl called me yesterday exclaiming........"mom, what did you do! "

The package of clothes from Old Navy for Trevor had just arrived.

She was opening each item and Trevor was so excited. He thanked me.........his winter coat is soooooooooo warm and best coat ever. :0)

Cher wanted to know how I knew he needed long sleeved shirts. "I must have told you", she said. Yepper.

Happy kids....happy nana. 

Hubby is makinbg waves about the area beside his bed that he cleared so I could vac. Told me it had been an hour since I said I was going to vacuum there.

"yeah, yeah",  I know...it's been a day....no a month" I quipped. 

Now I just pray that this recliner doesn't require more space than the old one ...space is at a premium there with a portable toilet next to it. I shit you not!

That's All Folks!
