Landlady came up yesterday evening, and to my surprise announced that she had care packages! I wasn’t expecting anything at all, since the two packages I knew about missed the deadline. By hours, because Uncle Murphy is a dick. Won’t be another for a month.
But care packages there were!
Somebody hit my wishlist…

I’m not in any special need of more water bottles – except that in my situation there’s no such thing as too much stored drinking water. I’ll be taking this one to town with me Monday morning, and then it’ll go into storage with the others not currently in rotation.

A jar of skin salve at a propitious time! With blessings from the House of Pruitt, which runs a business called Pruitt’s Tree Resin, comes a free sample just when I’ve been walking myself sore every single day to get my wind back under control. I confess to a certain skepticism concerning natural remedies, but we’ll be giving this a try starting tonight.
Longtime Generous Reader CH went the extra mile for me…

😀 That ought to keep him going for a while.
Thank you all! I do appreciate the thought.
















































They just started carrying those bones at Costco. TWO boxes equals about 1 whole shit-ton. Each weighs too much for my dog who won’t flip it off his nose…just lets it gently fall and settles down for a munch.
Well with all those treats, you’ll need some more help making sure they’re eaten before they go bad:
