Good evening. Today was kind of a lazy day for me, just a bit of weeding so I can get my tomato plants in soon. Dinner was BLTs. Later we will be going to no frills for ice cream and a few other things.

@SassyAshley almost all kitchen faucets are chrome or stainless steel. Moen has one white finish deck/faucet that Home Depot and Home Hardware carry. Thing is, our faucet deck has been moving for a couple of months. Sibling won't check and tighten so I'll have to see if I can do it myself. I think you'd love the bathroom done first because it is so essential. Kitchen floor can be done another time (ours needs replacing due to vinyl having too many nailheads and holes after 25+ years of wear).

Laundry was on the lines for 2h then I said dryer time! Wanted chores done in am.
Got my precious Pepsi Throwback case at Shoppers-real sugar pop! Will try to make it last the week. Also purchased a dozen eggs-some will be for baking and some for scrambling.
Scuffed my shoe on sidewalk while walking back from garden centre and realized I found a penny (tarnished) but it's #25! Good week for penny finds.
Realized that if there is no light rain of 10min duration, I'll have to water the lettuce plants daily to ensure they grow or I'll see more dry plants (one expired already). Lavender plant was planted almost as soon as I got home. Hope it's happy with rosemary as its neighbour.
Goodness Me stocks the hemp bars that I have been wanting. Brother got some on 50% discount as the bars were almost at their best before dates (1yr after packaging). Reg. price is $3.29.Last edited by Ciel; Sat, May 27th, 2017 at 08:30 PM.

I've spent a lot of time crying today, mostly over Grandma. I don't usually cry in church, but I did today. Dh stayed home with the children and let me go alone...no one slept much at our house last night. They don't know if Grandma would survive the surgery to place a permanent feeding tube. My Dad and his siblings are going to have another conference call regarding Grandma's quality of life. I saw Grandma at Christmas and she was sleeping a lot. We didn't take many pictures, no pictures with Grandma. I didn't think that it might be the last time that I see her. I called my aunt and she offered that she could help us FaceTime with Grandma, might be my last goodbyes. She might not make it to our trip which is a month away. It's all just a little too much. Grandma is dying, MIL is in heart failure, SIL is still very sick, they have moved away, my older sister is getting a divorce, and I'm not earning enough money to stay in the black. It sucks and I could sure use prayers or something.

Oh, Angela, so much on your plate,
Can you not go visit your grandmother?
I will keep you in my prayers; hoping you can find some grace and peace.

Yeah, I was rattled. Dh stayed home with the kids and let me go to Wal-Mart. They were out of stock of the $1.77/lb pork loin, so I went to NF to try to pm it but my NF only carries that when it is on sale. I forgot to properly check myNF list while I was there and ended up missing some things. That annoys me. This week has an unusual schedule for us, so it'll be interesting.

@Ciel : Thank you! I picked up one small one at 50% off but it was bent. I'll have to exchange it for another later.

@Angela273 -thoughtful of your DH to allow you to have personal time at church. Like Natalka has said, could you go to see Grandma? She still has a say in her care, doesn't she? You care very much for so many people, your tears needed to flow. Will keep your name in prayers this week and also ask for financial relief/bonus/blessing/jackpot to come your way.
