Last week I found a bra that fit properly but only the one of that style; got a $10 Kohls Cash coupon with the purchase. After fussing with the battery for a few days I finally got to the other Kohls in the area today and they also had exactly one of that style, now even more on sale plus $10 off. At least two of the very worn articles can leave my dresser drawer (I keep one older one for wearing when I'm doing really sweaty yard work and I already have that.)

The friend I catsit for gets frozen cat food in well-insulated parcels and saves the padding and boxes for me because they're perfect for packing glass sales I put on eBay. Picked up four of those boxes today and some of the padding will go into the box I'm currently working on.

The daily highs for the 10-day forecast are high-80s to ~ 91; tolerable. The front is getting a bit tall so I need to spend a morning filling the spools for my string trimmer then go out and hit the patches of grass coming up through the groundcover I've pampered all summer. I also need to find new homes for some of the potted trees and shrubs (I watered them all summer so when given away and planted in the autumn they're more likely to survive.)

I made a dog food run today and am stocked for the next few weeks. Hopefully as I get toward the end of the bags I bought today I'll be back to placing scheduled online orders (with free shipping) and save the trips to the hinterland. Tractor Supply doesn't have city locations, they're in small towns outside of big towns. Getting the food supply back into sync is the goal.

Yellow squash casserole made tonight to last for several days, and to be taken to my neighbors across the street tomorrow. It came out great, with enough tomato and country-style sausage to make it almost a stew. A few dollops of red wine scooped from a jar in the freezer gave it a nice bright flavor. I don't drink wine often any more but I still love it for cooking.
