Thanks Cathy.
That makes a whole lot of sense. Not to mention on the back end where my
door is, I'd hate to lose it going down the road.
And yes, my feet are "singing."
Today is my 64th birthday so I told the wife I wanted to go to A to Z in Alma, Ark.
While down there I decided to check out the Camp Ground where the RIVER VALLEY
EGG
RALLY is going to be this September. It was not at all as I remembered it. lol.
Found my spot and found BAMA's spot. After I circled the camp ground 3 times my
memory began to recognize the place........lol.
While I was at it I set my odometer to see how far it was on Hiway 59 down there
and when we came back I set the odometer to see how far it was back on I-540.
There's a about 15 miles difference so it doesn't matter much which way I go. It's 90 some miles one way and a bit over 100 miles the other.
A to Z had plenty of stuff to look at. But Saturday is not a good day to go if you
want to go up one isle and down the next. They had a few things I could have used,
but they are not cheap any more. So I came home empty handed.
Stopped at another Walmart and found a blanket like I used when on ship.
The issue was a wool blanket, but when they made me "donate" a month as
compartment cleaner, I swiped a blanket from the Chief's quarters......lol.
This blanket is very similar. It's all one color. They had white, baby blue, and
a
light brown (tan). I bought the tan one as it was what the Chief blanket was.
100% cotton. And if you've slept under a wool blanket and a cotton blanket, you
will know the difference. I was surprised I never got in trouble when they did
bunk inspections. hahahaha. Thought I would try it as you ladies suggested a
solid color to offset the busy patterns so far. Still not finding anything for the
other two
windows as yet. I did find another vinyl table cloth. Wife asked why
I wanted another table cloth. I told her it was marked down to a dollar and it
has seashells on it. Maybe another theme later.......lol. Also another storage
basket to fit my Snoozy cabinet that the other Walmart didn't have and some
wire storage racks for behind the cabinet doors.
I think I may have forgotten, I also went through a Dollar Tree yesterday.
That makes six stores......................and I think I actually lost two more pounds.
