I recently purchased a 3500# milling machine, yesterday ordered a power feed for the Y axis of said machine. Will require some small modifications to make it work, but will save me $500 over buying one ready that theoretically just bolts on.
I bought some clutter. I needed furniture but all I came out of the thrift stores with were a couple cute throw pillows, a sprig of fake flowers, and a little vase. I have no sofa to put the pillows on, and no tables to put the vase/flowers on. Sighhhh.
Be patient, also check to see if there is a publication there that shows estate sales in your area. You can find nice things at a good price.

We have motion detector lights and they are great. Good idea to have them on stairs.

I bought a caramel apple pie for us and I bought the dogs a new fluffy bed for bedtime. They LOVE it! Plus I bought a 97% fat free ham steak-YUM!

Got my Rocking Chair Money yesterday, got paid from job today and still haven't spent any money. Hmmm. So I transferred a wad to my EF. (And still have more money in checking account than I thought I'd have. Huh?)

I did it! I finally did it! I spent some money in the deli at work. Ham, blackened turkey, Buffalo chicken, cheddar and baby Swiss cheese. Deli meat and cheese to make sandwiches on Hawaiian or bolillo rolls (I baked the bolillo with my own little pink paws). DD and I decided we didn't feel spending Christmas day cooking this year. It's gonna be Christmas Day lunch-or-later instead.
She is going to make a pasta salad, though, and because DGD loves
loves loves green bean casserole, she's going to make that. I'm gonna make deviled eggs. And we'll have chips and that old standby, the onion dip that's made with dry onion soup mix and sour cream.
Some of the ingredients we already had, but I did spend actual money on the deli meat, cheese, and rolls.

I bought a recliner lift chair. Actually bought it last week but it arrived today. The FedEx guy was so nice to bring the heavy boxes into the apartment and put them where I wanted them.
It was not too hard to put together, though my back hurt for a while afterwards. Even better, it came in two very sturdy big boxes, so now I have a "TV stand" and a "table". Still no TV, but I have the chair facing the box so I am all ready for when I find one.

Bought a pivoting drill bit holder that allows me to drive in screws that are in a tight spot or with something in the way. Could have used this many times!
@Georgiagranny Those bolillos are my favorite for making sandwiches. My son's favorite sandwich is is roast beef, any kind of cheese. I saute onions and add those. Wrap them in foil and bake until hot. I make a fake au jus with beef broth and garlic powder for dipping. He can put 2 of those down in one sitting.

HD..what do you use those gloves for? Love the colors! Your fuzzy boots are cool too. I can't wear anything that doesn't have at least a slight arch in them. So can't wear Uggs or anything similar. Also, can't find the your post now (saw someone's reply to it) but it's nice that you bought those delicious sounding, once a year treats for your DD.Another Hardback Book from the same author as the last one...
2 pairs of gripper fingerless gloves..
They are a bread roll specific I think to Mexico, very popular here. I went to double check if I had spelled it wrong. No, it came right up,try again Bolillo Rolls.
