Re: CC vs checks

Re: Daily Check In - 2 February 2024

On the plus side, our old kitty did great last night on his new kibble. Ever since he became sick months ago, he's been waking DH up at 5 am, but this morning slept through because he was able to eat enough to stay asleep.

This is not a normal economy. I think so .....

Re: Study: Half of US inflation linked to corporate profits

Sandi, that's us as well. I am just not paying those prices. The past few years have been all about second-hand and marked down.
