Land's End Lastability


My grandson is throwing away a skirt. This was not just any skirt. I bought it used probably around 16 years ago. I wore it for a while being pregnant with our last two kids and used it when I wasn't pregnant. When I was done with it, I gave it to Sara and she wore it when she was pregnant with two of her kids and wore it when she wasn't........this skirt got some hard miles and both of us got LOTS of many happy skirty days out of it. But it was shot. She has had it for a while and it needed to be chunked, but she just couldn't do it. So I got an idea. We could have her oldest son do the deed. It was easy for him. Just open up the trash can, and throw it in there. Good bye blue skirt. It has to be 2 of the best dollars I ever spent.

This was the first time for me to ever cry over a "shirt." That was one of the saddest post you have ever written dear Michele. Boo hoooo. Poor shirt gone to the "shot shirt burial ground." I know it will be missed. Poor James Kelzie, didn't even realize what he was throwing away. Oh well, on to brighter day! love you, Grandma

this and that

So, I get up this morning, and the rag-rug fairy tied all my rag-rug pieces together and had them wound in a nice ball.  I think I will leave more out tonight and see if it can happen again. OK.  I like Ross now.  These shoes were $1.49.  Purple velvet DUCK SHOES.  IN MY SIZE.  My plans are to go into that store every time I get groceries from now on.  Can't beat $1.49 for some of the neatest shoes in the world. I have seen this in a couple of places on blogs and the internet in general.  I was fully planning on ordering one....but our Kroger store had them for $12 something.  We've made 6 or 7 cups of coffee with this in our K-pot....and I am tickled to have it. I can now buy fun kinds of ground coffee.....not to say that Wal-Mart store brand decaff is a fun brand, but it's what I always used to drink.  And I lived. These are useful, not beautiful.  I need useful when I garden.  I bought some very low cost sni...
