I´m waiting for the groceries.

Good morning, friends. It´s a chilly sunny day. I decided not to wash clothes even though the weather man says that we will have rain in a day or two. If tomorrow the sun is shining, I can have Juanita washing early and ask Anita to hang everything. I´m a lazy old lady. But still, I asked for groceries. After a lot of work I could finally be accepted as a "prime" costumer. They did not like the line phone I had so I had to put the cellphone. Now that I have my brother´s cellphone, I don´t mind. My old cellphone had a bell that I could not hear but this one YELLS. Good for it! I did my math and discovered that I would save by being prime. They charge me some money every 6 months but the delivery is free if I order more than about $15. I never order so little. And when I want something special that is not that expensive, I add dog food and I reach the minimum. Just now a shopper (Venezuelan or Colombian judging by the accent) told me that they did not have the pork I wanted. So I traded it for a chicken breast that I will cut in pieces to make broth and have on a rainy day. It is so cold inside that my eyes have tears. I don´t even want to think about goin outside. But I am warm, as my body goes. I put on a 100% wool sleeveless garment that Lili made for me with lamb´s wool years ago. She called it Pocahontas and so it is. Beautiful, warm and I can wash dishes without having wet sleeves. Now my friend has arthrosis as I do. She knits a couple of tiny garments for her grandkids and yells with pain. I have told her to get into the government program that gives free pain pills but she won´t do it. See you later, friends. The bell is ringing

Hope all your groceries arrived in one piece. I had a pleasant surprise after I got $15 in Amazon gift cards and ordered dry food for the cats as usual and a summer house dress another site came to cash out, I got another $10 Amazon gift card and ordered some food stuffs and juice for me. Talk about striking it rich,

Our pets are expensive children. Luna is a big German shepherd and I have to give her some snacks besides her normal dog food. This year she has not had any health problem so I have not had to call the vet. But a couple of months ago I decided to skip my own beauty because Miss Luna desperatly needed grooming.

@RasmaSandra I would not like to go to Luna´s spa. The groomer has told me about her "relation" to other dogs. I don´t care for other dogs, I care for Luna. Besides I love the stories he brings about Luna´s day with him. He tells me that she does not even drink water during the whole day. Yet, when she comes back, beautiful and clean, she bids goodbye to him and then runs to HER water.

@marguicha that is why it makes me happy that I can get those gift cards and the cats always have their food. You just made me think of this too bad you and Luna cannot go to one place for grooming you for a hairstyle and Luna for her grooming, I have often thought about that since people love their pets so much why has there never been a human and pet salon. The owner gets styled while the pet gets their own kind of styling,

congratulations on becoming a "prime" customer for groceries! It sounds like you've found a clever way to make the most of the benefits, especially with the free delivery for orders over a certain amount.

And they also have some special prices on some groceries. That´s why I overspant today. The toilet paper was on sale and so were some cans of seafood I specially like.

I'm sorry about your friend. I'm also sorry that it's so cold for you. I hate being cold. Try and have a good day.

After a certain age, I guess we all have one ailment or another.

@LindaOHio Lately Camila is selling honey to help herself. She is a musician so she doesn´t earn too much. But all my friends, including her mom (Dixie) have diabetes. It seems that I´m one of the few people my age that I know with no diabetes.

@Charlesbronson Although I discovered yesterday that there is always a catch. They offered me several delicious things and they would give me 3 if I bought 2. Now i have toilet paper and seafood cans for a long time.
