Dress for me, dress for my daughter, legging for the other daughter.

And, two books for €1,30.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

New separatory funnel for the lab, and some new 24/40 size stoppers for the glassware I already had.

Yes, but stick an 'I' there and one could say Can I? Dah..  :zoinks: (okay, that needs a '?' and an 'H' as well and ja.. doesn't make sense maybe.. )

Well, never mind.. think the (clothes) brand is German. Fairly prized, okay quality stuff. Set me back 24 €urootjes. (prob. about 30 Can$ if my brain did the little calculation properly)

A 12 inch thickness planer for just $30 at a tag sale

Two bottles of codeine syrup, and a couple of burgers. Buggers in macdonalds got my order wrong too. Couldn't be arsed going back and complaining though, as I was too hungry and just wanted food quick. Still am, come to think of it. I think I'm going to go out and get myself a chinese.

And some rolling baccy. Was going to do without any smokes for a couple of weeks, and just use a nicotine solution instead/borrow fags from the folks, as I was down on money, but got some for my b/day.

Got my driving lessons paid for as well. Will be good when I have more freedom to get around. ATM I avoid going anywhere thats more than a short distance walking, my knee doesn't like it, and I've recently developed a hip problem thats somehow managed to be even worse than my knee is. Not to mention the neuropathy thats caused me to lose a lot of feeling in my leg, and starting to lose feeling in my foot on the same side.

Already lost the reflexes in that foot, still have feeling in the top though..if I slip with a needle I'll feel it alright, and curse the air blue, but I can poke the sole of my foot and not feel it at all until it actually goes deep enough to get past the affected tissue.

Just got the baccy paid for by the old man, seeing as its my b/day, and dinner on top of that, a big helping of fish&chips, not had that in ages, I've been living on chinese crispy duck in pancakes, or deep fried salt and pepper squid as far as takeouts go.

Hmm....Think I'll go and get myself a bottle of vodka to finish off the evening....at least..sort of finish off...I still have to go and harvest this years poppy crop(s) :mischief:

And it gets better still....yay! free beer. Free beer is always good :D

Two crates and a bottle of vodka..that should be just what I need to finish off the day and relax. At least, until I have to make the trip round to my poppy grows. Got a nice crop of pods from the look of it when I passed some of the spots in the car earlier on my way to buy food and pop round to the pharmacies. Come to think of it..I just remembered a bag full of broken up dried pods and poppy straw from last year, I think I'll brew some tea, awful as it tastes, after a few beers and that bottle of vodka :)

Boxes, packing tape and a putty knife.  I have a lot of carpet tape all over my hardwood floors.  Cleaning it up so far has been a tedious PIA.

If there any staples in the floor from the carpet  these make getting them out easy.  I use them all the time on small nails and such

Bread, bagels, chips, pop, and shake-n-bake. Holiday long weekend, and it's kid free. Cleaning, tv, and snacks are in my near future.  :green:

And you're guaranteed to be successful at it because you already know you can do all of the above! :laugh:

Was going to go for a walk tonight, but because of all the humidity, there's too many mosquitoes out and they like me too much.

Windshield wipers, an a/c filter for the car, and 2 sunshades for the side windows of the car = about $70
4 shirts, a kitchen garbage can, a towel = about $12
