DoD bought phony military gear made in China, including counter-night vision clothing that didn’t actually work
The U.S. military, government agencies and other purchasers bought more than $20 million worth of Chinese-made counterfeit goods designed to look like domestically produced gear from a company that defrauded the government and helped to orchestrate the counterfeiting process between January 2013 and October 2018, Justice Department officials said last week.

My pension hasn't even pre-posted yet, though I know it is in the can, as the allotment to the pets' account HAS posted, in the other bank. Once weekend processing starts, I should have the bulk of that pension payment available. My other annuity is scheduled to post on or about the 5th.
I did get a few items while out to dinner last night. I enjoyed goat curry at a nearby Jamaican restaurant and then stopped by Dollar General, which was a mistake. On the other hand, the smoked cheddar flavor of the wavy Pringle's is not bad. Terribly salty, but not bad
I guess I'll postpone the major shopping until at least tomorrow.
Curiousity prompts me to ask what is a Pets' account ? Do You have a account for the pets or is it something else entirely ?
I had hoped my Pension check would arrive in yesterdays mail, Nope That means maybe Monday and the earliest that I can run to the bank and cash it is Tuesday.
I find that stopping at any place selling food is a mistake, That is the reason I have three out of the four Kraft Mac & Cheese I bought tempting me It is also why I let my brother pick up the few things I need at the Grocery Store. Today's shopping list is huge 
3 zero calorie Gatorades, A package of sliced cheese, and Maybe Dearborn Farms Sesame Chicken from the refrigerated case. I find that I prefer it to the Grocery Stores Chinese Take out counter version for a couple of reasons.
1. It isn't floating in lots of sauce
2. It actually has Sesame Seeds sprinkled on it.
I tried the fried rice from them too, It reminds me of what Fried Rice used to be here. Bits of scrambled egg, peas, carrots and onions. The Local Thai food place has fried rice that is also the same.

Hello ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Hi Guys...wonderful Saturday!
It was 63 degrees at my house this morning when I woke about 7:30ish.
I enjoyed about half a cup of my new coffee, (Mushroom Coffee Mix). The coffee was good! A slight bitter taste, sorta reminded me of a very dark chocolate taste.
Then I fed Tom E, and he sat with me for a short while before deciding he would go out the cat window and up onto the roof! Where he continued to 'over see' the work I was doing in the back yard. Like I need a supervisor? a mouthy one at that!
Finally quit about 11 a.m. it was by then 80, and the mosquitoes were beginning to stir. So, I've been eating lunch watching noon news and reading our posts, video's and laughing at the cartoons!
Mushroom Coffee Mix, Probably not for me as I have never had a flavored coffee that I did not taste and discard
A noisy Supervisor cat, lucky You.
I suspect that all over the country Mosquitoes are going to be bad with all the standing water left after the rains.
I never made Butter, I believe that we did have fresh churned butter when I was young and we visited a relatives farm.Have either of you ever made butter? There was a time that Dad had a milk cow, and a big black iron weird looking thing sat in our kitchen...it was a cream separator. I don't know that I ever saw it used. Must have been one of those things that happened before I got up, or more likely after I was asleep for the night...anyhow, we always had quart jars of fresh cream in the refrigerator. Then, there was this square glass container with a threaded top. The top had 4 paddles that went into the jar, and a geared handle to turn. That churned the butter. I always begged to do that. Which I half way did before it got to hard for me to turn.
Fast forward to about 1979, when my neighbor came over for coffee and was complaining bitterly about some 'bad whipping cream' that she got at the grocery. She was whipping it with a rotary hand held beater, and she noticed there were yellow lumps in that cream. She was taking it back to the grocer. AND she didn't believe me when I told her she's over whipped it and it was forming butter. So, I had to make butter for her!! The odd things I do!
I thought everyone knew not to overwhip cream, I see I was wrong. You can also over churn ice cream.
I'm guessing You got a message that You had a package at the Post Office ?Yesterday I got ALL of my chores done! That's not usual. At the post office they looked but couldn't find my package. When the mail ran, Kelsey left my package in the mailbox!! That's the second or third time something like that has happened. and I guess 2 or 3 times in 23 years is a pretty good average!
Found by accident a stand alone car wash as I was coming home from the PO. So for $5 bucks I got my car cleaned. There were more expensive option, but I just wanted the dust, and the one big splot of birdie poo on the hood gone!
Our financial workings are so different! I haven't looked yet, but my pension check from the Red Cross should have posted yesterday, and I'll go online and look later. My Social check posts on the third Wednesday of the month...and is not 'day dependent'. I rather it was day dependent, so I'd know that check was deposited on the 16th or what ever.
Ok, I've eaten, will check in with my bank, and then I think it must surely be nap time!!
Later...
I would have thought that all car washed were stand alone ? Or do You mean a hand wash ?
BTW $5 is a really good price.
My SSI should be in the account on the 12th, 2nd Monday and my brothers one week later.
If I said I do not have to check with the bank, I have both banks accounts set up to send automatic notices of balances, deposits and withdrawals via email.
I actually had a decent nap Saturday, I was tired.
Have a Nice Day

Howdy all y'all. It's simmering Sunday! Another hot one, and only 20% chance of rain.
We have a joint account in a local bank where we can both put money toward pet expenses. Once there, the rule is that it can ONLY be spent on their expenses. I have some automatically allotted each month and J currently puts money in when I remind him to. He used to have an automatic allotment but with his currant employer, that isn't as easy having it come right out of the pay check.
My money hasn't posted yet on my main bank, so big shopping just keeps getting bigger and probably will happen tomorrow.

Good Day! Sunday here!! and cool morning! Sweet!
worked out in the back again this morning. It was nice out. My supervisor (Tom E.) was nowhere to be seen. I think he was up on the roof, as I did see him go up there while I was drinking my mushroom coffee this morning. Listened to a couple pod casts while I worked. also a little music. Filled my wheel barrow with pine cones, and had about half of a barrow full yesterday. Darn things are everywhere! My mystery plant turned out to be a day lily. Did I tell you yesterday that the mulberry tree that Ted sawed off a few weeks ago, has all these sprouts...mulberry bush???
I've finished lunch (eggless egg salad stuffed pita with pickled onion, and a hand full of salad greens. And a small plate of sliced red bell pepper, celery, and those small cukes, and a few pieces of apple.
Next up, shower, gym clothes, visit with Jack and Jenn so I can give Jenn her birthday gift a couple days early. and then stopping at gym and finally home again! That's my day I've looked twice, and I do not see a space for a nap ???? hmmmmm.
I'll come back and watch a couple video's later, I watched most of the MRE one? I dunno why.
Why am I not surprised that DoD bought bogus stuff from China? I will read that, and most of the other news links later too.
Hope everyone has a good day!

I did get out to get cat food. And when did it decide to rain? Yep, as I was out getting cat food. And stopped right after I got home. Maybe I should have stayed out longer, so we'd get more rain. I didn't because I had braised lamb shanks and carrots waiting in the slow cooker, and I needed to get home, make the mashed potatoes, and thicken the gravy.

That makes a lot of sense, Sort of why I have a more or less untouchable savings account and free checking in one bank and free checking in another. One is for paying one credit card and other misc. expenses and the other pays the other credit card and is where SSI lands. The Savings account purpose when I set it up was for money to accumulate for the quarterly property taxes.
I hate it when the shopping list gets too big as that makes it cumbersome to bring into the house.
They say "How to Make an Easy Recipe for Pad Thai" ? Since they do show how to follow the recipe IMO OTOH I might just be being picky ?How to Make an Easy Recipe for Pad Thai
I do not recall ever seeing Radishes in Pad Thai. Pass on the shrimp and Chiles too, I will say that the dish looks tasty. I also suspect that the Thai restaurants in the area buy big bags of ready to use rice noodles to save time. Sort of like what a lot of fast food places do with bags of diced lettuce and bags of diced onions for example. Which has the added benefit of reducing the risk the unskilled workers will slice them selves open

Day Lilies are real hardy too, A couple of years ago when we tried Sunchokes and decided that they did not work in the front yard I took a couple that we had missed when we dug them and planted them along the shed by the fence in the back yard.

Good Morning! Monday!
Was 65 degrees when I woke, and is now 67...the brief wild storm that blew thru and 'cleaned' everything...it smells incredible too! Had my coffee out in the swing while Tom E. ate his breakfast. I really didn't want to come in! I may need to find a sturdy small table to put out there so I can take my laptop out on these sweet cool mornings.

Ted's coming out this morning for yard work, and he was planning to wash my car...but I sorta did that the other day, so we'll wash his!
The box I was after last week Roger was my mushroom coffee, and I got varying messages about its where abouts. From 'Delivered' to 'Incomplete address'. (the address was perfectly correct FWIW)... but always saying it was out for delivery. Right now there's a package from an insurance co. "out there, somewhere". Waiting for it to show up, cuz I'm really curious to see what it is. Don't know the company...didn't request any kind of new insurance, etc.
Pretty sure the temp will warm quickly, and be steamy as well. I think we're in for another 90 degree day.
Hope you both have a good day. Glad you were able to get your handicap sticker Roger! Nice to have if you need it. I've seen so many people misuse them. lIke the guy who would come to the gym...park in the nearest handi spot, with handi sticker and then come in walk on the TM, use machines, etc...one day I just couldn't stop myself from asking why he thought he needed a handi sticker, and how did he even get it???

Another hot day in paradise for both of You
Yesterday and Today the predicted high are 70 to 72 degrees. Tomorrow starts a stretch of 80s with overnight lows in the upper 60s so it could be worse for us.
Your first of the month money posted Monday and my Pension check arrived in the mail around 3:30 PM to late to run to the bank. Today my to do list is simple. Bank, Post Office, Call NS and see if they can suspend the account since I will not be able to handle the delivery weight for 2 plus months or I'll have to cancel.
Hint Drive don't run to Krogers
I have been know to eat dinner for breakfast and a breakfast for lunch or dinner. I do not feel the need to hew to the convention that the only meal for breakfast is breakfast food.
Eating out could help avoid getting tired of eating the same thing for several meals in a row, OTOH I could eat Cheeseburgers and fries or pizza all week long, so...
I'm starting to watch this but I have a good idea of what ones to avoid. I like Grape Nuts, so crunchy. It looks like I should not re-buy the Shredded Wheat once I finish it. I tried the Alpen Muesli, pass. CheeriosHUGE Cereal Haul - What Cereals To Buy & Avoid At the Grocery Store! Most of the cereals he showed I do not recall seeing on the shelves, Non sweetened seem to be on the wane.
BTW Puffed Rice and Puffed Wheat seems to have disappeared from the cereal aisle here.
it would appear that the reality is a 50 pound stack of pancakes not a 5o pound pancake.I Made Giant 50-Pound Pancakes For The Try Guys
The cooking took a long time and I suspect that the pancakes were cold by the time they were served as they were cooked one at a time. I base that in part due to the butter not melting

My brother mowed yesterday so that's done until next week.
Have a Nice Day

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! Another pretty warm one with no chance of rain. Today I intend to get out and purchase the rest of the list, along with watering some things, and getting the garbage and recycles to the curb for tomorrow's pickup.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

He's making them vegan but I'm sure similar REAL burgers could be done.

Hi..7 pm news is starting...boy I'm really late...and I still need to go to the gym.....egads!
Intown visit with chiro, lunch with Ted, then we decided since the temps were low, and the humidity even lower to go to the Botanical Gardens...I was about 10 minutes from home when Jack called...(its Tues). So, talked to him til 5:30...fixed some dinner as I was really hungry...now I"ve eaten, want to watch the news and then hit the gym. Quick work out..30-35 minutes cardio..then I should run by Publix pick up a lottery ticket and then home! I'll sleep well tonite..already tired.
Roger, besides not being able to walk, (which must be tough for you considering all the steps you've put in over the last several years), how are you feeling? And do you have a date for surgery? I'm so glad you have your brother to help you thru all of this.
I'm sure Tom E. is lonely...I'm just not a cat, a point he drives home on occasion. Like ignoring me, or hopping up and leaving the porch, etc. I dunno!!!
Gotta get moving...need to get into my gym clothes for starts.
Later...0
