Good morning to you all. I lost my whole post. I don't know what is going on with the stupid computer this morning. It is pouring rain and thundering and lightening here today.
Jean: The neat thing about Lands' End is they will replace anything anytime. I had a strap break after about a year of owning a pair of sandals, they sent me a replacement and even a free return label to return the old ones. What a nice honor for the teacher. I wonder if your paper has an online resource. I would love to see a picture of you all in the t-shirts.
I am going to try and get out and finish up Easter stuff today. I have to get a couple things for Jackson and ship them and get T's grass and basket. I had J's stuff shipped directly to him in gift boxes and it will get there on Monday. It wasn't supposed to be shipped out until Monday so he will get them a bit early. I just have to pu T's stuff all in a basket and I am done with his. I haven't heard back from his mom what they are planning for Easter yet though.
Not much else exciting here. I guess I best get some chores done this morning.
Have a great weekend!

Good evening, ladies! Another nice day here - up in the 60's. Rain during the night and then it should be nicer tomorrow, but much cooler.
Got the grocery shopping done today so I won't have to go out again tomorrow. Doing some laundry now.

Good morning to you all. It is cooler this morning, but not cold. It still looks pretty rainy. A bad thunderstorm chased me home from my errands yesterday, but went west and south instead of east and south so bypassed us pretty much. It supposedly had hail and such so I was trying to get home to keep the car from getting pinged.
I finished up all the Easter stuff and got Jackson's in a box to go to the post office today. I do my postage online then just take it and dump it in the parcel bin. It is better than standing in line. I always send stuff priority so it only takes a couple days to get there and can do it all online. You are supposed to have the option of the mailman picking it up when he delivers, but I have tried it twice and the nitwit didn't pick it up either time so I just do it myself now. I ended up getting Jackson his plush "peeps" a couple teething rings, a box of teething cookies I remember his dad used to like and a "I love My Grandma" bib. I couldn't find a Grandpa one and I looked through all the bibs, they had auntie, sister, and brother, but no Grandpa. He should get his two outfits tomorrow. I almost didn't have room for all the junk I bought Thomas. I got all the candy at the commissary so I kept seeing stuff and picking it up. The nice thing about the commissary is they stock really good quality candy. I got him a solid bunny that is Russell Stovers and solid tiny foil bunnies that are Russell Stovers for the same or less than the crappy hollow ones are at Walmart. I bought a bag of plastic eggs with different Willie Wonka candy in them and they had a surprise golden egg (these were actually to use for egg hunts.) Well I thought the golden egg would have something like cute tiny toys or something like you get in gumball machines. It had a tiny packet it one sweet tart in it! Phooey, I tossed it away and put $10 in the egg! I always buy him whatever fancy pants m and m cylinder they put out for the year too.
Well, Jack is downstairs taking aspirin so it is either a headache or his hips or knees hurt so I guess I better get him some breakfast. Have a good Sunday.
