"How Soon We Forget" or "Gee, It's So Much Fun Growing Old"

Some months ago I reminded myself to buy bleach the next time I was in Anchorage. Time went by and I was again in Anchorage. I couldn't remember if I'd bought bleach. Now, I have more than a lifetime supply of bleach. I gave away one of the big bottles yesterday.

Does anyone need bleach?

The Nikon Coolpix S7000 is my favorite point and shoot pocket camera. With sixteen megapixels and a 20X optical zoom, it's what I use for indoor photos, those plates of delicious food I show you, and candid shots from here and there.

I have three of them with various problems and after a long, long time passed, took them to a camera store to see if the guy could make a whole one. Wouldn't be worth it, he said.

They are no longer manufactured, so after passing up all the internet offers for $700, I found one on e-Bay for $100. Ordered it.

After it arrived, I looked on the shelf where I keep these and discovered I already had a working 7000. Now I have an extra.

My moss green king-sized bedsheets, the ones that match the green in the bedspread,  finally wore out after years of laundering and putting them right back on the bed. Hey, it saves folding fitted sheets.

I searched the Internet for sheets the same color. The ones that were close were over a hundred dollars a set and got poor reviews for pilling.

Reluctantly, I put the bottom sheet in the trash and went to the linen closet to see what color I would use now.

Well, lookee here. I have an extra set. How did that happen?
