Hi Ric. Ah! I get Walmart and Walgreen mixed up. I think they are two different stores entirely. We have neither here in Australia although I believe that Walmart did open a few stores in the past but they weren’t successful so the closed down and moved out of the country.
Those lightweight Blow-vac’s aren’t very expensive. I think mine cost around $130-140. The heavy weight ones are far more expensive. Mine works on a re-chargeable Battery. The battery lasts long enough to do a thorough job of my back area and garage and only takes about an hour to recharge.
Your spot on with the prices tripling. Things are very expensive although wages have risen too. I only recently got an email to inform me that my Mobile/Cell phone plans were increasing again. It doesn’t help with people on fixed incomes.
Yeah! Spring temps can be very changeable with a few nice warm days and then back to the cold for a week. A person never knows what to wear.
Those cheeky little squirrels are smart enough to check around with all the neighbours to see who has the food set out then go back and do the rounds again:)
I awoke this morning to a very noisy thunderstorm. Lots of loud thunder and bright lightening. My daughter dropped her dog off on her way to work as she didn’t want to leave her at home alone with all that noise. The storm frightened both her dog and mine and they were happy when it passed. Chat again Ric. Take care. ~Pat~
No bird feeder yet, but I have seed delivering today from Walmart. We woke up to 44 degrees. Yesterday, it was 86. The temps will keep flip flopping thru the weekend.
Hi there Ric. Well, you have been busy around the yard. It’ nice when you can finally get outdoors to catch up. I hope the weather stays nice and mild for the next two or so months before the hot weather arrives.
That’s a bit of a nuisance with the neighbour’s Blow-vac sending some of the leaves into your yard although I guess it couldn’t be helped if there’s a hole in the fence. I wouldn’t be without my Blow-vac especially at this time of the year when the house next doors large deciduous tree drops it’s leaves and twigs onto my Porch/patio roof and into my back area. I used to try and sweep it all up but that was a huge job. Finally I invested in a lightweight Blow-vac and it’s made the task so much easier. It’s almost a daily job at this time of the year.
The past few days have been extremely humid with temps in the high 80’s. There’s a Cyclone going across the top of the country and the edge gets low enough to affect us in the southern states. This will continue for another month or so.
Did you get to visit Walmart? It sounds a little like our Chemist Warehouse stores here. Things are much cheaper there although most are in the large cities and not in the rural areas. Nice chatting Ric. Take care ~ Pat ~.
That's alot of pizza you're sending my way.. Where do you get these pictures.. lol.. Looks like 3 large pizzas - too much for us.. We'll take one and you can have the other two.. That will be lots of leftovers for you.. The one we had was medium sized - cost 16.99.. We got thunder and lightning here this afternoon.. A couple of loud cracks of thunder scared me (made me jump).. Our cat headed for under the bed.. Poor kitty! Yeah, I get those Swiss Colony catalogs too.. They're trying to strum up more business by sending to more people.. Their stuff is expensive.. I like Hickory Farms too - alot like Swiss Colony.. xx ME
