Reset Forty-Eight, Day Fifty
Apr. 14th, 2023 06:53 amThursday I got around to ordering more stuff from Kohl's, to use up the bonus funny money they hand out when you buy stuff and the last of the money on the fit card I thought I'd used up last time but somehow didn't. The second package from that previous order was supposed to arrive, but also didn't. That means I could get two today. The stuff I ordered Thursday will be here next week. It will be eight items this time, and will be sorted into two packages.
Five of the items are duplicates of things I bought before and liked a lot, but I'm paying less for them this time. There is also a dress shirt, though I'm sure my dress-up days are over. The other two items, which were not part of the clearance sale, are two tank tops. I needed something to get me up to free shipping level, and I needed them because the clearance tank tops I wanted aren't available for shipping. I'll get more of the store funny money for this purchase, but I don't think I'll let them rope me into buying any more stuff this time.
One thing I won't be buying from them is another one of the blankets I bought last time. I tried it out for my evening nap Thursday and it is much too hard. It's like sleeping under giant sandpaper, and I had to use it over the top of a sherpa throw. A disappointment. A different type of blanket is part of the shipment that was supposed to arrive yesterday, but I'm not very hopeful about it. It's plush, which tends not to hold up under washing. I guess I'm still in the market for good blankets. Who would have thought that decent blankets would be the first technology to be lost when industrial civilization began to collapse? My money was on toasters.
Fuzz brained and needing sleep.
