Just Couldn't Do It

I tried to browse the thrift store....I really did!  It's where I would pick up stuffy toys for Liesel....bringing them home....run them through the washer & dryer....she would be so excited to have "new to her" stuffies.  I lasted in the store only minutes.....but had to leave.  I avoid pet sections...it hurts too much....still. 

As I walked in the store....this toy box was a blast from the past!  Our youngest....had the exact toy box!!  This one was still in great shape....with three daughters, we survived the Cabbage Patch doll obsession!!

I picked up this casserole dish....perfect size .....I set it in the cart & headed for the check out!  And with that, ended my visit to the thrift store.  I'm sure you understand.....at some future time,  I will visit the thrift stores again.....just not this day.

I used an Amazon gift card....and ordered this cute handbag for the upcoming wedding....

I've been searching in stores and on-line for replacement cushions for our outdoor wicker furniture.  There's nothing wrong with the current ones....just wanting cushions a bit fuller.   The price of cushions is ridiculous....and finding a bench cushion has proven so difficult!

While roaming at a local store, waiting for Mr. Seventies to find what he was looking for....I wandered into the patio furniture section.  And noticed two sets....with love seats - and the love seats did not have  bench cushions....but rather two seat & two back cushions!  They were complete sets....being sold that way....

Brilliant!  Why hadn't I thought of that?  I ordered eight cushion sets - seat & back cushions...two for the love seat & a set for each wicker chair!   For a whopping $80!!!  The best price I found here was $69...for one set!!

I'm hoping the quality & durability match my expectations....if not I can send them back.   This is the colour I ordered....  

My electric blanket is arriving today....I pray the quality is great....you never know when ordering online!  I cannot stress how I have missed the warmth of an electric blanket....it's the little things!

I had suspicions my iron was low again....but my bloodwork was great & I can now reduce taking the iron medication from daily.....to every third day!  That's a win....

Showers here this morning....then clearing for the day!  Hope you have & awesome day & thanks so much for hanging out with me!

Til next time...
