Did you go into a store, [ick out a pair you really want after trying on forty of them, and plunk down $100 for them, and then toss your old ones in the garbage can? Some people have no choice but to wear second hand, donated shoes. I’m going to the Broadway Flea Market on Sunday. ---

You’ve finally come to your senses and realized that second hand furnishings must remain your lot in life. Congratulations. I’ve been given CBD oil for arthritis. Haven’t used it yet. ---

So , you complain of arthritis pain but a friend gives you CBD oil for free, you don’t use it. You just trolling friends for higher dose narcotics and drugs, for your “arthritis pain”? I see. My son just got a commercials gig, as his usual character, a sports/football fan. ---

Funny, that what your neighbor’s saying, too. Ad Astra may be a slow movie for some, I thought it was thoughtful with great visual space scenes. ---

What, you need help with this? OK, step 1. Get in car. Step 2. Drive to store. Step 3. Buy laser printer ink cartridge. Step 4. Drive home. Step 5. Install cartridge. See how EZ that was? Sheesh. I’m thinking my next car should be electric. ---
