Forgot about another recent purchase.
Yesterday, bought some GOLD !!!!!!!!!!
Needed 6ft x 7ft 3/4 in plywood for the doghouse floor....the old floor was rotting out.
Wanted treated plywood, can't get any, so i got standard fir......haven't bought any wood for a long time.....that was a fast 100.00 gone.

Wood is so expensive now, as is everything. Bella digs deep but hasn’t tried to dig under the fencing which is why I asked. She has not done any jumping up so wondered with the long body if it was possible, apparently it is so have to watch for that when she comes back. 🤦🏻‍♀️😂.

Biospy went fine, thanks, results Tuesday.

Last night I bought the hubs a few summer shorts and a Hawaiian shirt. He loves those shirts. He was surprised.

My wife has traded with Barkcloth in Honolulu for years. Hawaii might be two oceans apart, but when an email arrives with the greeting: "Aloha," it feels like they are at the end of our road. Sadly, the lady who runs Barkcloth has called it a day, I think that she has sold her business to some large corporation. They don't have the personal touch that my wife so enjoyed. My last shirt, made from Barkcloth fabric was left in my stocking after Santa's visit. How I love my Aloha shirt collection.

Corgi long backs and short legs aren't in their favor.

I have bought four of the same ones on Amazon and previously they fit so I expect this one to fit too.

I do the same thing. Several years ago I went lingerie shopping in person (as I'd always done), and bought a couple of bras that I liked and fit me well. I just reorder them as necessary.

Yesterday I ordered some new sandals for DH and an instant read cooking/baking thermometer for me. :D
 
I received 6 eyeliner pencils from Amazon, in Brown. They are not true brown - they are a shimmery copper colour! They were not sealed, so I can't return them :mad:

Fortunately, they were not the high-end brand I usually buy, but still .. $$ down the drain!
 
I bought a straw hat , thats too big ...but will be good when reading the newspaper in the garden if it’s not windy lol ........
Plus a lipstick from amazon I couldn’t get in the local chemists ........
A Sun lounger cushion .......
30 factor sun face cream ........
Now waiting for the sunshine ......😂

Can you file a complaint with Amazon? Maybe they’ll go after the seller for providing something that’s unsanitary.
 
I went into a fitting room the other day and was shocked by what a slob one woman was. She had thrown down everything she was trying on onto the floor. The clerk said she was helping someone else so couldn’t get her more items so the lady got more herself. Then when leaving another woman was coughing, her plastic half-mask was below her chin and she barely made a token gesture with her wrist to cover the cough. I felt sorry for the clerk and was glad I was in and out of there quickly. In the past year, this is the only the third time I’ve gone in a fitting room and I regretted it. None of the four shirts fit.

PS. My point about the slob was that if she cared that little about the clothes and cleanliness, then she wouldn’t care about the health of anyone else. Not the kind of person I’m willing to be around.

I entered a complaint as well as a low rating. I was surprised there was no cellophane seal on them.

If you paid with a credit card you can contest the charge on the basis that they sent you merchandise that was unusable. The credit card company will suspend the charge and contact the company which will, in most cases, just remove the charge and you don't have to return the items.

I try not to judge or call names. I am not always successful (not counting my husband in this 🙄).

It is allergy time, lots of people are coughing their lungs up, me included, and they do not have Covid. We are just all paranoid. I see many people drop clothes they are trying on the floor and leave them before Covid. They must think their mother works there 😂.

Dressing rooms here are always like that, but they are not yet open due to Covid.
 
Last week I bought the Planet Zoo game and all the game extension packs. Then I couldn't play it because my computer is so old the graphics didn't work right -- oddly the top third of the monitor showed the game correctly but bottom two-third was fuzzed out and had two screens overlaid including movement and flashing, horrid to look at.
After following a LOT of instructions online I got the game to work on my Kindle Fire, but then I needed a keyboard and mouse. There was an old bluetooth tiny keyboard in the house and I managed to get it to connect, but then had to order a bluetooth mouse. The mouse is still sitting new in its little box, I feel worn out from all the effort, maybe I should have bit the bullet and bought a newer computer.
