Hello, again, myLot! Hit the wrong button and lost the first attempt at this post, so... Got home about 20 minutes ago--it's 12:52 by my computer clock, now. I went to the bank to deposit my pay. On the way there I dropped off some dog food at the pet store, as they said they took donations. On the way back from the bank, I stopped at Staples (office supply store) to make some copies, which was fun and then I went to get some boxes for things I'd like to sell so I could ship them. I had measured the items before I left, so I could find boxes that would fit. Of course, when I took them up to the counter and tried to pay for the boxes via check, the checker said, "Alternate form of payment, please." ie: Debit card, which I don't have, or credit card, which I try not to carry with me so I won't be tempted to spend money on things I don't need. So, I had to leave the boxes and packaging tape I'd also tried to buy there, and head to the grocery store, where I misplaced my list. I got everything I believe that was on it except one thing, which I remembered on the way home. Whatever it was couldn't have been that important, though, as now I don't remember what it was. Now I need to get something for lunch, and then I'll...do something else. Probably Bible study, and when I'm done with that it may be time to go and check the mail. Hope your day/evening/etc. has gone well in your part of myLot land !

Gee, that was sad, store didn't accept cks. I'll watch for it. Thanks. My day ok. Dryer went longer time, than usual, so I notified Resident Manager. One washer got fixed today. Nice day sunny, but nowhere to go.

Now you’ll have to go back to get your boxes and groceries. That must be aggravating. I wish you better luck next time.

Sounds like an interesting kind of day. Hope the rest of your afternoon goes better. You should consider getting a debit card, since it would be tied directly to your checking account.

I am enjoying my day working at home sharing odd and good news stories and doing surveys.
