Storm Damage Scammers? Sales? Mandarin Oranges, Dole Pineapple

Saturday

I received two calls from two different companies saying they were going to be on my street tomorrow, Sunday, and would be inspecting my roof for damage. They did not ask. They told me as though I had contacted them. I told both callers that I did not need their services and not to come to my home or bother me again. I did not use my nice voice, either.

I suppose if there were anyone else living with me, I might have thought the other person had previously talked to them and made arrangements to inspect my roof. These people are probably scammers.

I wonder if I could con them into mowing my yard while I think about it and just be a dingy old lady.  ??? Just kidding.

I feel so much better, not so sluggish. The only thing that has changed is I am not taking prednisone or the second antibiotic. I have not slept since Friday morning and it is Saturday night. Well, I got almost an hour's sleep about 10 am. Then, a lawn mower woke me. 

Chic-fil-A has shredded canopies from the hail. Five Guys is closed for repairs, along with Aldi's. This is all one the same route I travel to WM. 

Hopefully, Dole Pineapple will be on sale somewhere this week. There was none on sale this past week. It was $0.88 at Christmas.  There are still the Wednesday sales. Have you seen a good deal on Dole Pineapple in the can?

My last purchase of canned Mandarin Oranges sits on the counter. Why is this my last purchase you ask? It is from China. Maybe there is another brand from somewhere else. Oh, I found one from the Philippines, so maybe I can have them canned again. I wonder if the Philippines gets them from China. 

Potatoes and onions were a great price this last week. I bought them but forgot the price. So, shoot me. Bananas are $0.44/lb. Apples are $0.99/lb, so Red Delicious is my goal. MMMM, sounds like a Jello salad to me. 

I have no ambitions to cook an Easter meal. I will cook what is easiest or needs to be cooked. I will boil and dye a few eggs. Plus, I will make Jello eggs in my little egg molds. 

I bought one Whitman's $1 chocolate bunny for exbf which I will put in a little nest of grass purchased on sale last year. I will be on the lookout in the kitchen for something to put the nest into. 

Okay, I need to go hang six pair of black pants in doorways. I wore a pair last night with worn out thighs, so I suppose I have exposed myself to the world. Only four of these are decent to wear out, and only two of those are still very black. 

Have you ever had a scammer contact you about storm damage? Do you have Jello egg molds? What are you having for Easter dinner?
