It's the opposite her, people tend to give a wide berth to mask wearers and assume they are sick. Or maybe I just look like crap. LOL

At the gym regulars and staff have figured out I am just always masked so they dont have issues with it but they also usually dont go out of their way to cough on me.
I'm starting to look like Frankenstein again with all of the blood blisters on my arms. They're coming back again even though I've been off the blood thinner for a year. A big part of my day is putting on band aids. If I look at something, I start bleeding. I don't have to actually touch it.

I can't figure it out. I'm 6 feet, 180, and in pretty good shape for my age. I don't why somebody would want to go out of their way to start something with me. Obviously, I can't get into a fight because of all of my medical issues but sometimes I get very tempted.

I binge watched Monsters on Netflix and I have five questions.

1. What happened to the shotguns?

2. What was up with the judge in the 2nd trial? He was also the judge in the
Rodney King trial.

3. Did the scene where Erik tricks the cop into letting him get evidence out of
his car's trunk really happen?

4. Did Leslie Abramson really badger Erik like that about the feedback from the mic when
he was testifying? For me, that was the most disturbing part about the whole show. I almost had a breakdown watching it.

5. Did that conversation with OJ in prison really happen? I hate to say it but the actor who played OJ in the show didn't sound like OJ at all.


I remember what it was like during these trials especially with the aftershocks. LA was on edge. There wasn't much controversy about Lyle and Erik. Everybody thought they were guilty and should get the maximum penalty. OJ was a different story. He was a hero and everybody loved him. It was so hard to believe that he killed his wife. The Rodney King trial was crazy. Nobody expected the cops to get off. These cases are still very emotional. I hope that I didn't say anything to piss anybody off. It wasn't my intention.

Wags has a pretty good deal on their 100ct large kitchen bags. They're on sale for $9.99 and you get a free 35 ct canister of Wags wipes with it. The Wags kitchen bags are excellent. I'm using them now. Obviously, you can work it into a bigger deal or do it as an in-store pick-up. I just got more kitchen bags last week so I'm good but still tempted.

Is there a site to find if there is a current insert coupon.
Previously I used coupon tom to tell me.

I was walking back home this morning after a failed CVS shopping trip (their system was down again). I was 5 feet away from the curb and the light turned green so I continued to walk across the street. All of the sudden this white car honks at me as she's making a right turn and then flips me off. I'm trying to figure out what I could've possibly done wrong. I'm a pedestrian walking across the street on a green light. I have the right of way. She couldn't have been at the intersection before me otherwise I would've seen her. Anyway, after walking 5 miles for nothing (thank you, CVS - the 2nd time this week that their system has been down) I was extremely pissed off at this idiot for flipping me off. Just had to vent. I need to get some shopping done but I don't have the energy for a walk back to CVS. A couple of days ago we had 60 mph winds and I made the walk to CVS. The winds almost lifted me off of the ground a couple of times. Then I got attacked by a dust cloud. It knocked down two trash cans and then came at me. I got a lot of dust in my eyes and was a little freaked out but other than that I was fine. On the walk home today, I could smell the fire and it was hard to breathe. I was surprised since I'm a long way from Malibu.

I think that this is going to be my last post. There's a rumor that CVS is going to make a lot of changes next year that won't be good for couponers and I see no reason to hang around and wait for the Apocalypse. I hope these changes - whatever they are - don't happen but couponing already isn't much fun except on the occasional week when it brings back memories of the old days. Anyway, I've had my ups and downs on here and SD really helped me to get thru a tough time after my open-heart surgery so I'm grateful for that. Take care everybody.

Yeah, I'm not shopping much, but I'll likely stick around SD to stay in touch with those who are around. Take care!

Merry Christmas to everybody here but bah humbug to CVS and P&G for universal coupons. I love how they try to sell it as something that will be good for us. Instead of getting a Tide coupon for every store that we shop at, we'll just get one Tide coupon now and once you use it at the store you pick that's it. How exactly is this good for us? It's not more convenient because we'll still have to go on the store websites to load their store coupons. Universal coupons give us less coupons with no benefits. It's an awful idea. We should all stop shopping at CVS and buying P&G products. We should tell CVS and P&G to stick their universal coupons where the sun doesn't shine.
