I liked the temps, not the neighbors leaves. blech. We have at least 6" of leaves out back. Time to get on the riding mower with the vac attachment. Raking isn't going to happen. Ever.

And good morning!
I hate raking, and it kills my back. I have a bag on my mower, so I mow the leaves. :)

Good Morning! Everything is quiet and kind of grey today in NeverNear.It was inevitable.It is fall so I guess this is fall later than usual.I really enjoyed the past week though...
About Grrrocery shopping.You know you can do that on Amazon too right? I told you about the super dooper new Hyper Market here. You can actually email them a list of what you want and they will have it curbside at a designated time...As a nation this kinda stuff weakens us. Sometimes you have to walk..But I'm gonna use it anyway..:lol:

Hiya Stretchy!
I do use the Prime Pantry now, but I needed oranges. The little cutie ones. I had a hankering.
I get enough walking and running with the store and the chores at home. IF I think I need more exercise I walk to the mailbox. :laugh:

I'm sitting here, patiently waiting (NOT!) for my first case of wine to be delivered! :) Up until recently, PA had a ban of some sort on getting wine through the mail, but NO MORE! :) And I got a nice deal on Groupon for a case of CA wine, can't wait! :thumbs:

I've also used Prime Pantry. some things are a good deal, others not so much. Like everywhere else I guess.

I do have to say though, as a Postie, W.T.F. is with people ordering TP and paper towels through Amazon?? It's way cheaper to get them at the big box store!

My favorite wine delivery place stopped shipping. :( Now I have to trudge to liquor land myself. But I do go on Wino Wednesday to get 10% off.

No clue why they would do that. I still go to the store for those items. People are weird.

The wine arrived, all bottles intact! And they included a corkscrew! Which is great for me because I didn't even think of that... :facepalm:
Hooray! Now be sure to test out the new corkscrew, just to make sure that it works. :D

TP and paper towels are a once every 6 weeks Costco trip for me. I don't online shop for any groceries. I probably should check options just to see if it is affordable (are groceries ever affordable?).

I have joined a couple of wineries over the years if I really liked their wines. Problem is you can only do that with "boutique" wineries, which means their wines are awful pricey. We were members at one in Temecula (about an hour's drive from here) for a couple of years. We could go tasting free as often as we wanted, and I kinda used it as an excuse to go down there for weekend getaways. But we have a Total Wine & More and a BevMo both within 5 miles of my house, so I can get decent wines much cheaper there.

Bamrz, let us know how the wine is! California isn't good for much, but we do make some really good wine. We also home-grow the "wine snobs" to go with it. :blink:
