Friday Random

Good Morning!  If we didn't agree about the election  results, I still love ya!

Here comes some random and non election blogging.  Yay!

I know there is a calendar on my iphone but I still like a paper calendar that fits in my purse and that I can check while I am talking on my phone.  Last year I waited until the new year to find one and had to pay close to twenty dollars.  This year I found a comparable calendar at Dollar Tree.  Yes, one dollar.  Dollar Tree for the win.

 I also recently purchased a keeper.  It's an alphabetical book to keep your passwords written down.  As I careen toward 60 I realize I can't keep all of this information floating around in my brain.  I plan to use it for airline, cruise, rental car company reward plans too.  I think this will be a big improvement over the piece of cardboard I have everything scribbled on presently.  Yes, cardboard.

 I did some Thanksgiving prep yesterday.  I cleaned the fridge, inside and out.  I kind of like no having pictures, invitations, announcements tacked up on the fridge.  What do you have?  Cluttered or clear fridge?  Let's vote and agree to disagree.

 A little Thanksgiving vignette is set up in the dining room.  I'm not a fan of the light switches but I do like electric lights.

 Still crafting...  Wouldn't  she be cute in a teen girl's bedroom or the boudoir or a bathroom?

 I have been inundated with my library requests all showing up at the same time.

Curling up with a good book in November is the best.  I have a lot to get done here and I just want to keep reading about Dixie.  The struggle is real.

 I am still ordering household goods online from Walmart.  It's free shipping at $50.  I have an ongoing cart for Starbucks coffee, toiletries, laundry soap etc.  Pioneer Woman has her Christmas line out for the season at Walmart.  These Christmas napkins jumped into my cart.  The green plate is from Tag.  I also have the red plates from Tag.  These combinations will be pretty for buffets this Christmas.

I've been asked why I don't just go to Walmart.  Uhmmm, I live on the Canadian border so it's very crowded at my Walmart.  I am going to Costco tonight.  They have an early Black Friday sale and there are two things we need, plus we buy our meat at Costco.  Are you doing any Black Friday shopping?  I think Costco on November 11 will be as close as I get.

 Happy Veteran's Day to all who have served.  As Sam's buddy, Zeke shared this morning, it's the day they all get half price appetizers for giving up 4+ years of their lives. Sad but true! 

Have a fantastic weekend!
