At last…I have socks…and deodorant and dog food and…

In a perfect world baring unforeseen appearances from lizards and my perimenapausal forgetfulness I would have had my socks about two weeks ago!

After lunch with my sweet friend who you all love and read regularly. She stepped up and assumed the role of my trusty Wal-Mart guide. Skoots1mom took pity on me and my lack of a shopping gene. She guided me safely to the exact location of the socks I was looking for.

AND…THEY…WERE…ON…SALE!

And for no reason what-so-ever I decided that while I was picking up the forgotten items from my previous shopping trip. Reference question #2 from my last Random Dozen I felt compelled to document the experience with my trusty cell phone camera.

Now I will say that I did have to wait for several minutes pretending to decide what kind of dog food I wanted while the Wal-Mart employee at the end of the isle was cleaning up a spilled bag of kibble. Why? well so I could snap this picture and the only person who would think I had lost my mind by taking a picture of the dog food isle at the Wal-Mart would be all of you.

Thankfully the world, and me are now safe from the threat of an offensively aromatic husband and the dog is no longer starving, and yes that is baby food in my cart as well.

Grandma needed to stock the panty with strained peas, carrots, pears, bananas, prunes, applesauce, squash, sweet potatoes and rice cereal.

Oh and now I have socks!

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...

Sunday, March 13   Monday, March 14 This is coming up in the herb garden. My sweet furry family member decided it was his greatest joy to pull almost all my plant labels out of the ground and use them for chew toys.  I think this is marjoram but I am not sure. Tuesday, March 15 Click on the link Southern Eggs En Cocotte for the recipe. It was real good y’all!   No pictures on Wednesday, March 16 Thursday, March 17 Can you tell who was at my house all day?   I guess she figured since her toys were scattered all over the floor that she would join them. She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...
