What are you doing?

[taxlady]

(((Hugs))) GG. I hope you feel better soon. I'm so pleased that your DH is taking such good care of you.

 

[pacanis]

I hope you get home when you expect to, GG. If not sooner
The "academic advantage"... is that where a bunch of stu's get to stare at you nekkid on the operating table?

 

[Andy M.]

GG, I'm sorry you've had to deal with so much. I wish you a speedy recovery.

 

[Dawgluver]

Oh geez, GG, come home soon! Glad you're getting fed well, and that your DH is taking good care of you!

 

[GotGarlic]

Thank you so much, you all Yes, pac, but luckily I'm not having surgery

 

[Somebunny]

GG, thinking of you, and hoping you get to go home soon. Your DH sounds like a "peach" bless him for taking such good care of you. ?

 

[PrincessFiona60]

My thoughts and best wishes, GG!


I just finished paying bills and ordering meds. Not as fun as going out shopping...

 

[LPBeier]

GG, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Big hugs going your way.

 

[Cooking Goddess]

GG, get well and get home, OK? You know your DH would be just as happy to wait on you hand and foot there. Feel better quick.

...But it appears that we may actually be able to fit a guest in the guest room now!

Sounds like it's only if it's a skinny guest.

 

[Addie]

Addie, I will continue to pray for your daughter and you. I understand what you are going through as I am dealing with my sister's cancer - it is hard watching them go through it all.

Thank you LP. If only I could do this instead of her.

arggghh! i find myself faced with the following dilemma again: i have a $20 item to buy from amazon. i need it sooner rather than later. should i pay the six bucks s&h fee, or add another $15 purchase to my order and get the s&h for free? does anyone have a practical suggestion for a generic add-on purchase? and, which method do you think is the more frugal of the two?

 

[pacanis]

If you need it sooner rather than later, put the 15 bucks towards upgrading to overnight shipping.

Well, so much for me showing up. Guess I'll just bed down with Beagle.

thanks, pac, but i ain't in that big a hurry.

+1 or buy two of the items if it something that you often need.

Buy a kitchen gadget. Something you've thought would be good to have but was a little extravagant. Now you can justify it.

How about a Silpat, spice/coffee grinder, mini FP, coffee, duck fat, truffles, etc.

 

[Andy M.]

Pacanis, any luck with the trail camera???

 

[CarolPa]

Thank you friends, for the kind comments. My niece and nephew had most of the arrangements preplanned. The funeral is on Friday.

When I shop on Amazon I put things on my Wish List as I see them. Then when I do find something I'd like to have right away I look through my Wish List and add some of the smaller items to get up to $35. I really try to avoid paying shipping.

 

[GotGarlic]

Thanks again for your good wishes

vit, I read an article recently about buying staples regularly from Amazon, like paper towels, toilet paper, etc. Or maybe you could stock up on staples like canned tomatoes, chicken broth, etc. They have become almost like a membership store with more variety.
