years ago, (in the 1980's) I worked in the shipping and receiving of a department store...I saw what that store paid for each of the items, then turned around and priced it at a lot higher price, for example, a dress would cost $1.00 wholesale, and $12 retail.. even with my employee discount, I could not afford that dress... since inflation happens....it would be even worse now...but remember, we live in a capitalist country....

Deb after them spots didn`t wash off ,i thought on my own to put some dawn dish liquid on the spots and let it sit for a couple hours .
Thats what i did I went to to do a search and ill be darn it said to do exactly as i was doing and use sawdust .
It did help but its quite hot out there standing in the sun .I will have to do this again on a better day .
I find it hard to deal with these expensive prices .
You know what i have noticed at Target and at Kohls
They will have a sign there saying buy 1 and get 1 50 % off, but they have no prices on the pants so how do you know what you`re paying?
To me $69.00 for a pair of pants is price gouching.
Ill have to go somewhere in a different neighborhood where the prices are not that expensive.
I have been watering the lawns since i have a tree with shade
.Might as well do it while i can .
Im in pretty good shape now
.Keep cool out there and have a nice evening. xRick
Hi Rick! I always go through the clearance racks to buy my clothes... one time I got a nice long sleeve blouse for $1.50 at the Walmart when we lived in Florida. I bought 2 pairs of jeans at Kohl's here where we live now, for $7.50 each a couple of years back. I hadn't bought any clothes in Target in 15 or so years! they are just way too expensive, and never a good "clearance" LOL!
I look at every store's clearance racks, any time I go into one, just in case I find a good deal like that. Usually they do not have a big selection of sizes, so I do look just in case my size is in the clearance.
Yeah, birds poop will change colors depending on what berries they've been eating, and your right, sometimes, that color doesn't wash off easily. However, I'm glad you found a way to do it.

Hi Deb got out to the bank then went shopping and found absolutely nothing.
The pants they want 69 dollars lol imaf gine that 69.00 for a pair of pants. I walked out of there no wonder the store lacks people>>TARGET
Its hard finding things and you get lost pretty easily when you dont visit there much . I went into Kohls and found nothing so i came back home and stopped at my Walgreens and walked home.
Those birds im feeding are dropping these bluish colored bird poop and that is w very hard to get off the cement
.So i put a little dish liquid on them after i was power washing . lol They look like INK BOMBS have a nice day Deb

Hey Rick..the hot temps continue here. Humidity isn't too bad for now. Might see rain this evening, but not holding my breath. I watered everything outside this morning. It's so dry the leaves are falling. Sweeping the porch off daily. Enjoy the new week...Welcome July -:)
Hey Rick - Whatcha doing over there? I see you're celebrating summer.. Such an awful time of year.. I'm still waiting on fall.. I hope you have a little RUM or Tequila mixed in those drinks.. They have drinks that look similar to those at Applebees:) Okay, just wanted to stop by to visit..
I hope you had a great weekend Rick and looking forward to this new week. I'm not looking forward to the noise of July 4th and 5th, because it scares my dogs, but love watching the fireworks. We used to go to the local firework shows, but as I've aged, the heat makes me feel icky...so we watch them on TV now!
Hi Ric. Yes, your right in saying the heatwave is effecting most of the northern hemisphere. I watch the worlwide news in the evening and at the end they show the weather in all countries. Such a lot of contrast with flooding in some areas and heatwaves in others. The same goes for our country with floods along the east coast while the central states and west are in drought conditions. Sure hope you get that break on Tuesday so that you can get to the bank. I gave the Scrabble group a miss today. Didn’t feel the best so thought it safer to stay at home. Have a pleasant week Ric. Stay cool. Pat*
❤️You 2 have to go far to find happiness: you❤️ just have to step over the threshold of egoism. Love from this side❤️ Dayenne❤️ A nice and healthy week❤️ For everyone Bye dear ones❤️ big kiss❤️ and wet noses from all Doggies XoXO❤️Love You ❤️
