I don't mind Wallys. I went there yesterday and only took in one bag. I got so much clearance stuff, I had to BUY!!!!! a paper bag!!

8 boxes of 14 oz corn chex for $2 each. (4 for hubs and 4 for the food bank)
2 packages of pork somethings for $5 each (half price)
a discount package of spinach
a discount package of spring mix
clearance thing of baby bella mushrooms
Hubs needed engine cleaner
cats needed treats! $14.78 for a large plastic container!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
clearance container of pre diced green onions - so much in there is way less expensive that buying that many bunches.
And I don't know what else. $93. ouch.

I was going to buy a case of oil for my son. He drives my old 2000 Camry that leaks oil but isn't worth what it would cost to fix it. Walmart didn't have any real oil, everything was synthetic, and about $10 quart. Nuh uh.

There was more to my Wally World story but I fell asleep, woke up a few hours later and just posted what I had typed. That's why the time is so late.

Up about 7. Made coffee, walked Cleo, our dog. I fed the ferals, and broke a thin layer of ice on chickens' water tub. They were talkative.

Instead of just church I decided to go to Sunday school too. It was the first time I went to Sunday school at our church, mainly due to Ron's needs making it difficult to get going early.

Our pastor wasn't there, I was told that his wife has the flu and they were headed for urgent care. A retired pastor filled in, preached on "Hope", and I got a blessing.

Choir had several missing members due to illness, but a couple of our youth joined us four adults and it was enough. A young lady sat by me, did a good job singing. Her grandfather told me afterwards that she's 8, EIGHT! I would have guessed she was at least 11 by her demeanor. She can be my singing partner anytime.

After I made lunch I went outside to the coop. The flock was very vocal, and I gave them chopped ham that is about to spoil, and then a plate of Spring weeds, yum!

Martha's in the middle, and pecked the others if they got too close. She's the lightest Sussex, brooded five eggs last April that hatched into five cockerels! Zacchaeus was the only boy I kept from her brood. He's on the right in this photo.

For lunch I made a Reuben calzone, and it was good! I got the idea here on BYH.

I had grandiose plans to do more sorting this afternoon but my ambition evaporated. I think I needed some "set awhile" time today.

Yum! That looks delicious!

That sounds like a nice Sunday to me. I usually take Sunday off, after church. Something about being clean, having on better than farm clothes and not wanting to get dirty…….
