Groceries ordered and even some TP but no flour

From my Amazing Grace box that held my body butter.............

"Amazing Grace Philosophy..........
     with every act of grace, the world gains a touch more love.  grace is compassion, gratitude, surrender, faith, forgiveness, good manners, reverence and the list goes on.  when we extend ourselves to others with grace, we not only lift them up, we inspire them to be graceful. a world full of graceful people is a world full of goodness and love."

How are you doing?  Fine, I hope.  I made my grocery list and menu yesterday and tried to order but there were no time slots for pickup at Walmart.  So, I got up this morning at my early rising 3:00 a.m. and got a time slot for Saturday 3-4 p.m.  I also got my ham so Easter dinner is on!  There were a few items they didn't have but for the most part it was good. 

Last night about supper time we had a humdinger of a storm with a tornado watch until midnight and 4 different warnings!  There was nothing all day and only 20% chance of rain but it started getting really dark so I checked the weather and lo and behold....a storm was coming!  It lightening, thundered, hailed and poured down rain!  It was a good one but it didn't last long.  I was worried about my little seedlings but they were okay this morning.  The hail was about nickel-sized.  The weather radio never went off in the night so I slept really well!

Today I cleaned my desktop...........
 It was a mess with papers and receipts and patterns.....papers everywhere!    Now it's better....
 I also found more of my cross stitch to organize...........patterns
 Remember this............I finish them and then don't "fully finish" them....that's going to stop!
 Look at all these  that I've finished and done nothing with!  Shame on me! 
 I got my patterns in one container, another has my FO's,  and another for cloth.  I want to organize my patterns by season and/or holiday.

Oh, my grandson, Grayson, wanted me to share a joke with you...."Why did Sally Ride cross the spaceship?   To get to outer space!"  He's pretty clever that Grayson boy....thank you, Grayson!
    
What have you been up to?

  1. Grayson sounds like my kind of man....one with a sense of humor! Let us know if he come up with any more like this! Glad you got a time slot....they are hard to get here now too. I ordered flour from King Arthur flour and I will have to wait a couple of weeks. But I don't mind. I am going to have a list of things I want to back when it comes! I got a bag of white and a bag of whole wheat. Who knew I could be so excited about ordering flour! Take care and stay safe!

    1. You all live in bigger places that's why. Our Walmart serves lots of people but they are all over the county and our county is rural....no big cities within 100 miles. I thought about King Arthur and I may have to do that also. I know...grateful for the simple things! Stay well!

  2. Some funny jokes here. I can't believe I am thinking this, but I am a bit jealous you ordered and received toilet paper. What a world we are in. I am giving grace to people who let me down, the world loves grace.

  3. I've been trying to get a grocery slot since last Friday and still don't have one. I even set the alarm for 1:00 am the past two nights to get up and check availability. But nope. Nothing. We're not out of anything, I just want to replace what weve used. I don't want to get low on anything in case we can't get more.
    I enjoyed the jokes, that Grayson really has a sense of humor. I printed out the recipe for Hawaiian Chicken. It looks delicious. Maybe we'll have it for Easter dinner since I haven't been able to get the ham I have on my Walmart order.
    Take care Sam. Stay well.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    1. I guess I would start early too if it takes that long! Plus, even if you order you can add to your order or change it up to a couple hours ahead of your pickup time. I did it as I forgot to get lettuce. Let me know how the Hawaiian Chicken is. I haven't made it bu tit sure looked good!

  4. I have tried to order TP and they are always out...what are people doing with it. No I am not out YET. My grocery order was out of roast beef so I went to the butcher shop. Thanks for the chicken recipe we will try it next week! Today is chili day...two crock pots full are simmering away and it is almost time for my nap:)

  5. Holy Cow! 2 crock pots full? Do you freeze it? Chili sounds good as it is 'chilly' here! LOL! I had to wear a jacket when I went for my walk.

  6. Mmmm, that Hawaiian Chicken sounds delish! I may have to try that since I like pineapple anything so much. That kitten is awww-dorable! I don't dare try to do the walmart grocery pickup, they are behind by 3 weeks! I need groceries like now, so either I go myself on senior Tuesdays or not at all. Like Terra says above, grace is what the world needs right now, so i just do what I need to for me and Jerry and let the other stuff go. You tell Grayson he is hilarious! Funny stuff, little dude! :D
