What have you bought recently?

The blue jeans I ordered took forever to arrive and then I had to return them. I‘ve ordered two more pairs - hoping one of them fits. I’d pay a fortune for a good fit. Then I noticed the Bay had a flash sale for one day. I called and got a price match.
 

After two medical appointments I felt that I needed to go to my favorite stores. I wore double masks!

I bought 2 blouses and 2 pairs of pants. Bought a bottle of foamy liquid soap for the guest bedroom and some house sleepers for the hubs. It felt good to finally get out some. I also stopped at a bakery and bought hubs his favorite sweets. Got my car washed (if you call that buying). lol

I did alot today and now my body is aching from top to bottom. But, I'm ok.

I bought Flonase for my sinuses and ink cartridges for the printer at Walmart.

I think I have probably forgotten something.
 
I guess i had a good shopping day.
Ordered online 2 pairs of what was called " Pillow soft " sandals.....hope they're as good as they look.
Ordered online 2 sets of king size sheets, 600 thread count.......i'm sure they will be very nice.......but they weren't my first picked......seems everything i picked before these were out of stock......these ones are plain cocoa, no pattern or embossment.
From Wayfair.
 

Ordered more Bandaids today, BAD BELLA BAD, a new computer cord since husband woke me up again last night by talking too loud, so he is moving his computer into his room this weekend, and a new puzzle for husband which looks nearly impossible for him to put together. 🤣. All from Amazon.

The two pairs arrived and I’ll keep one. Before I get them hemmed, I’ll wash them several times. The last pants just kept shrinking until I gave them away. Not sure I love these new ones. The extra $ off made willing to try them.

Just bought 2 gel wrist pads for computer mouse... one for me and one for his maj...

Some backing felt for my attempt at making some jewellery craft picture

..also got some Gehwol foot cream... it's brilliant stuff but I usually just buy it in a tube , , until I noticed today that 75 ml is almost £8 and 500 ml pump dispenser is £20.....so I'm getting the dispenser... ..
I found this after standing on my feet at work for anything up to 10 hours a day , feet were wrecked, and I tried just about every well known foot cream with little success, so although my feet are good now, I still use this to prevent any recurrence...

That LED light is what I need to look into after our Winter power outage problems.
Is it hard to install @Happy Joe ?

Since, I believe, its powered by 120 volts House wiring) I expect that most folks will need an electrician. For my self; I intend to modify it to install below a ceiling fans; which will likely involve some fabrication hassles..
I would not recommend it for power outages unless the user also has a 120 volt home generator/emergency power system.

For short power outages, up to a couple of days, I use my 12 volt (35 amp hour) scooter battery, that I keep for camping, powering a very small (12 to 120 volt) inverter along with existing table lamps that have 120 volt LED bulbs installed. Lights go out; remove the battery from the battery maintainer/charger, carry it to the table lamp , unplug the lamp from the wall and plug it into the inverter connect the inverter to the battery, switch it and the light on, and pick up a good book or the e-book reader.

The battery supplies a limited amount of electricity, the inverter converts it to 120 volts, allowing me to easily run a very few , relatively dim (400 -450 lumen/50-60 watt equivalent) LED lights for up to a couple of days.

I also use oil lamps for emergency lighting.

For emergency heat I use thermostat controlled semi portable propane heaters.

Enjoy!
