Do Not Disturb

 Me: I'm very busy today working on an important project and not to be disturbed.

Somebody: Prove it.

Me:

It's a little Hello Kitty office I put together for my kitties in my office.  😅

So far nobody has bothered to use it lol I tried to convince Patches to get on the foldout couch but she's not interested lol

Meal Delivery Service-because y'all know I'm a terrible cook! lol 😂

So I just found a new meal delivery company I never heard of and the appeal was that they advertised fresh food from farms. Wow, I really did not plan that alliteration; however, I love it! 😂  But I digress...so I went to their website to check em out, and when I put on a filter for vegetarian (vegan wasn't an option-I should have known right there), only one meal came up and I'm gonna be honest it didn't look very appealing.

And then when I put on the dairy-free filter, there were no meals left :(  

Meanwhile their slogan is about being "Farm Fresh" or whatever.  Like don't vegetables live on farms? lol

Because I'm only human lol 😂

 Yeah, I went back to Aldi today to get proper grocieries since I didn't get any yesterday, and I fell for it lol  I mean how many times can a person be expected to say no to this! 😂

Aaaaaand I may have picked up a queen-sized inflatable mattress for $25!

WEDNESDAYS WITH ALDI! Self-driving Car Edition lol

Today I had *no* intention of going to Aldi.  There was nothing in the Aldi Finds that was calling my name so I went out to run some other errands instead.  On the way to the first errand, allofasudden I realize I'm turning into the Aldi parking lot!  What sorcery is this?!?!  I decided whilst I'm here, I might as well see if there are any secret items that I might need afterall lol

Well, there was a super cute gnome solar lamp that I did say no to this; however, as I type this, I deeply regret such a brazen show of willpower! lol 

 I did procure a Macrame kit from last week, and some Sun Lamps 50% off so as fate would have it, I ended up needing something after all! lol

WEDNESDAYS WITH ALDI: GROCERIES ONLY EDITION lol

I really didn't *need* anything this week; however, I wanted to check out and see if the "Red Hot Deals" that were rumored to be happening today were in our area too. I didn't really see that much marked down, in fact I saw something *marked up!* lol I guess the outdoor rugs came in early, and they had the same price tag on them as the indoor rugs. I let the associate know that there was no way those rugs were $40 as they were only $15 last year (I should know I bought four of em

). At first she said the price was correct...I mean she may work there, but I *breathe* Aldi lol She then checked and they were only $20. I wanted to replace one from last year; however, I wasn't willing to pay $20 for one either so I hope if we do end up getting the "Great Clearance" that the rugs are part of it

They still had a lot of spring gnomes left. I touched one but was able to "say no to this" lol (Yeah, Im'ma quote Hamilton forever, and ever, and ever!!! lol See, just did it again lol)

After leaving the Aldi Find aisle a little sad for being emptyhanded I grabbed some groceries. As I was checking out I thought "Wow, shopping at Aldi *is* cheaper...if you stay away from the AF aisle"

You know you were on Christmas break when...

 

WEDNESDAYS WITH ALDI: I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT lol

WEDNESDAYS WITH ALDI: I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT lol

The mission was simple, get a Salt n Peppa shaker set for a Christmas present, a couple items for dinners this week, and some jeggings to see if I could shoehorn myself into 'em lol 🤣  

I set off today armed with a *small* shopping list and a $5 off coupon, so today was gonna be an inexpensive day.

I saw the jeggings and snagged a couple pair in my size.  I lamented that the other colors did *not* come in my size; however, I was determined to make it happen so I snagged a couple of those too lol (Note previous purchase: Aldi Christmas Tree Truck comforter! lol)

I quickly ran down the Aldi Finds aisle bc I knew there was tooooooooooooooooons of cute stuff, and I especially have a weakness for gnomes.  I was on the hunt for weeks for the Aldi gnome porch sign when I saw people buying it in another Aldi group, and my Aldis didn't have them.  I searched for weeks and weeks and finally gave up all hope.  And welp, the very last item in the aisle was that very same gnome porch sign that I had hunted for.  He decided to jump in my cart, and I wasn't going to be rude and kick him out lol

In my search for a Raspberry Kringle (to no avail : ( might I add) I came across these monstrous croissants (DVD for scale lol) and decided these were a must have consolation prize.

All of my Aldis (6 within a 10 mile radius lol) have been out of whipped cream cheese for MONTHS and I subsist on this stuff.  This may explain why I need the largest sized jeggings but I digress...so I did what any whipped cream cheese loving girl would do and snatched me a months worth! lol  I also nabbed some Egg Nog, cuz I was feeling festive and whatnot lol

Sooooo my inexpensive day with the short shopping list and a $5 coupon didn't understand the assignment lol However, I did say no to sooooooo many other gnome items and did come in under $100 so I'm gonna count that as a win in my book : )

Thanks Aldi for all the fun and deliciousness!

WEDNESDAYS WITH ALDI: PJS & GNOMES EDITION lol

So I really really wanted the Star Wars adult PJs in XL & 2XL

I went to the first Aldi and they only had Christmas Vacation in larger sizes so I grabbed an XL, and then one of those cute ceramic gnome lights, and the Christmas car sheets!  Then I saw the "secret items" not on the Aldi website: the gnome holiday sign and a gnome tin!  Didn't even know what was in the tin but I grabbed it anyway!  I figured it had popcorn in it, and I was just gonna make the Hubster eat it lol

Went to the second store, same thing no XL or 2XL SW jammies *however* they did have the ladies gnome jammies (another secret item!) so I grabbed those! lol

Third store didn't have ANY Star Wars jammies or anything I actually wanted so I kept on trucking lol

The fourth store didn't have SW in XL or 2XL so I grabbed a L out of desperation and hoped it was generous in size.  Also I decided how many times can a person say no to the cute gnome blanket, and apparently four was not the number so I grabbed one of those too lol 

Fifth store, no XL or 2XL and then I realized that at the first Aldi I had actually grabbed the Christmas Vacation jammies in 2XL by mistake so I grabbed them in a XL.   I also grabbed groceries because I was running out of stores to go to and frankly at this point I didn't even remember what I was hunting for anymore lol 

I get home and post to the Yinzer Aldi group and asked if anybody saw the SW jammies in XL or 2XL only to find out they only went up to size L to begin with lol  

The whole time I felt like Hansel and Gretel because each store had one more thing I was looking for...or ended up needing lol 🤣😆

I'm still super bummed I didn't find larger sized Star Wars jammies; however,  I was able to score some on Kohl's website for a small fortune-at least twice as much as Aldi's price!  Oh well, they're cute and hopefully comfy lol

PSA: LADIES, DON'T FORGET TO TAKE YOUR TOPS OFF TO PROTECT YOUR SHEZEBOS! lol 😂

Don't let yours fall victim like Sheila did last year : (

RIP Sheila G. Zebo 06.03.20-12.17.20

After a valiant struggle, Sheila (of Pittsburgh) died peacefully in her sleep of SNOVID, surrounded by her family, who lovingly referred to her as SheZebo. She weathered many storms in her short life, and is survived by her partner Al Di Grill, and numerous ottoman, rugs and other outdoor patio items.

While she was struck down much too soon and still in her prime, she provided countless hours of comfort both day and night to her family during the pandemic. Family fondly remembers the hours spent in her shade, while floating in their Aldi pool listening to the Hamilton soundtrack.

Viewing hours are between dawn and dusk, and a service will be held Saturday 12.19.20, when she will be sent to her final resting place in the recycling bin.

In lieu of flowers, please send Aldi Peanut Butter Cups-they were her favorite.

For the Ham Fans lol:

Sheila did not give away her shot to keep us all satisfied, and she was non-stop. When I saw her collapsed, the world turned upside down, I felt helpless and I asked myself what did I miss? I screamed stay alive! I should have told her to meet me inside and that would have been enough, and now I'm so blue. I should not have said no to this as our deck was the room where it happened. She was our right hand man and like a hurricane she had blown us all away. We know you were our obedient servant, best of gazebos and best of women. If we take a break, then wait for it-she'll be back! Sheila, history has its eyes on you and what comes next. We thought the world was wide enough and that we had more time with you. Raise a glass to Sheila, who taught us how to say goodbye. We will tell your story.

While Sheila could never be replaced, we are happy to report that in May 2021 we adopted her cousin Sheena lol
