Packratt ~~~ Edited ~~~



An old Gas can laid in the ditch on my way home.... Hell yaaa I'll go for a FREE Jerry Can any day.... I slammed on the brakes, backed up aways , then ran down into the ditch to get it, Tossed it into the trunk, drove home, filled it with water to see if it leaked, NO LEAKS I just have to get a spout for it after I power wash it inside and out. There's crap inside that needs cleaning out. ~~~ seedy stuff and grass. Yaaaa , 100K Mercedes slams on the brakes to pull a Sanford & salvage operation in broad daylight....

~~~ Hangs Head in shame ~~~

ALSO..................


Cheap grapes were in Hy Vee yesterday...... 99 cents a pound...........



Last night I canned about 4 gallons of home made Pink Grape Juice Unfortunately... I forgot to take a picture of the whole bunch on the counter... all that was left were *SIX* quarts ... the rest were already tucked away in the panty... My BAD.../ Brain is not functioning properly with rush for Max & Alex's arrival here any moment.

ADDENDUM...............



MAX & ALEX made it here safely... We went out for dinner.

It's hard to resist something free on the roadside or in the ditch. I hope you can find a nozzle and cap for it.

That's one helluva pile of grapes, but you made good use of them in an instant. You have amazing energy when Max and Alex are about to ring the doorbell.

Chasing the vacuum sucker around the house at the last minute makes for pure pandemonium. LOL!!

There's no shame in grabbing an old gas can thrown in a ditch! Last time I purchased a couple they cost fifteen each! That has to be 10 years ago, who knows what they cost now?

Enjoy your company and have a great day tomorrow.

Happy B-Day Alex!
