Goodliness of the Morningtide to thee and thou

So I needed to go to Walmart and I didn't want to forget what I needed so I made a list and I went to Walmart but first I put on shoes and took three steps and hastily took three steps back and sat down cursing from the pain and I took the shoes off and put slides back on and THEN I went to Walmart and I parked and walked inside and grabbed a cart and pulled out my wallet for the list AND I LEFT THE (EXPLETIVE DELETED) LIST SITTING ON THE DESK AT HOME so I simply wandered up and down the aisles looking until I saw something I knew was on the list and grabbed it and I got through all the aisles and I got home and I did manage to get everything on the list but *munches on generic thin mint cookie* I got 5-6 things that were NOT on the list and I would not have bought if I had the list with me but for one thing I did NOT know that they made sausage and gravy pot pies but now I do.

@Scarred4Lyfe Aging isn't for wussies that's for sure.
A former doctor told me that I have bursitis in my left ankle, but I knew he was guessing at that diagnosis.
Now it is swollen most of the time and all of the way up to my knee.
It could be a host of other things, and I just started with a new doctor a week ago, and will eventually ask for him to test and diagnose it. It can easily go out on me.

I sat with my shoes on for a few minutes at the computer before I stood up, usually as soon as I put a shoe on I can tell what kind of day it will be but it sure as hell fooled me this time.

He isn’t pulling your leg. They’re real. (I assume the 4.4 rating is because a lot of dang Yankees tried it and didn’t know the goodness of real food.)

I opened one shortly after I got home and ovened it for a bit and it was really tasty and in fact I just turned the oven on to make another one.

@Scarred4Lyfe I have that problem too. I no sooner get home than I have to start a new list with at least one thing I've forgotten.

My worst problem is at times forgetting to put something on the list when I am out of it.

They're Banquet brand and are pretty good. $1 each which I don't know if they were on sale or if that is the regular price.

I knew they made those but have never purchased any. I never make sausage gravy and biscuits for just me. But sometimes when the kids are here they ask me for it.
Did you buy a lifetime supply, or just one?

Somehow, I'm not surprised...most guys love sausage gravy.

I know about the pot pies and have not tried them, yet. I buy extra stuff even with a list, I am so depraved.

My monthly budget tops out at $1,154 so I really don't have much choice to 'deviate from the norm' vis-a-vis groceries. Because believe me, I know how to deviate with quality and style.

See, it’s a good thing that you forgot the list or you’d never know about the sausage and gravy pot pies!!
I guess the next thing you’ll discover is sausage and grave pot, right?

Honestly I'm not much into food-flavored weed, if I got the munchies from smoking I'd probably smoke it all up in one sitting.

I went to Walmart this past Saturday and I forgot a few things. If your cellphone has a note app on it, you could make a list on it.

I prefer not to take my cellphone places. Although I could start stapling notes to my forehead.

LOL this is so relatable!
Lists are lifesavers only if we remember to bring them! At least you still got everything you needed—and discovered the magic of sausage and gravy pot pies along the way. All's well that ends well!

Usually if I forget the list there is at least one thing I miss but not this time. And them pot pies are definitely on a semi-regular menu appearance now.

Could not Walmart have let you use one of their scooter thingies so your feet didn't hurt?
Yes aren't they delicious..I love those and so does my son..the sausage and gravy pot pies.

I make up and rewrite lists about three to four times over before I order for delivery from Walmart each month and still don't always think I have enough, How is the cat company doing?
