The VA called and told me they will buy me a new scooter. She asked if I liked the one, I had or wanted one from a different manufacturer. I told her I wanted one like the one I had in blue, and she said that is okay, and it will take anywhere from 3-4 weeks to arrive depending on what warehouse they can get it from. So, I am a happy camper. will be even happier when it arrives!

Government Efficiency.

Now she can answer Elon Musk's e-nail, and tell him what she did this week.

Salad. One of the things I do to clear out the fridge. Sausage, shrimp, fake crab meat, tomato, avocado, cucumber........ What this really is, is taco toppings.

So, does fake crab meat come from a fake crab?

I think I might be poor as well if I bought as much food as you!

The cheap meat is getting more expensive by the day. $4 lb beef is now $6 a pound. That's 50% more expensive. I didn't get a 50% pay increase when Mr. Musk began to rule the world.

Well , I went and did it , had my cataract surgery yesterday, so far through the drainage it’s like looking through LED , bright light vs my other eye which is the halogen yellow view , I’ll be doing the other eye in a couple weeks , it’s not as bad as the right one but the surgeon say both need it and it needs done for vision reasons , the only way to describe it was Led vs Halogen, clean windows vs tented .
our food 4 less has better pricing on meats , I like Safeway but price wise I’ll go to our local Sherms food 4 less meat bonanza , I buy in bulk then separate it with vacuum seal, I’m still working on my 1/2 beef from the Ranch but I do buy family packs of Chicken.

I don't buy any meat from the store except hamburger. Every now and then I'll buy fish, or chicken, but lately it has been hamburger.

I stepped out the door wearing a T-shirt. I went back inside and donned a leather jacket. It's cold today.
