Target bullseyes? Bullcrap more like it.

I wont be shopping at Target in Hemet anymore.  They allow panhandlers to harasss customers in their parking lot.  The business approach seems to be if the panhandlers can shake down enough little old ladies, they will come in and purchase merchandise rather than shoplift.  I watched a panhandler curl up and hug his knees while itching and scratching his shoulders forearms and elbows.  In deseperate need of drug rehab or a fix .  Target has created an attractive nuisance in their parking lot making that parking lot dangerous territory.

Road Block bomb squad


I thought I lost this picture.  This was July or August 2012.  One of our charming neighbors threw a pipe bomb in our yard.  We called the Sheriff about the suspicious device.  They came out closed the road.  The Bomb Squad sent a guy in to the yard with a bomb suit on and carried it away in a metal canister.  

chunky yarn mill ends made in Turkey

I like the colors in this yarn, it has a sparkly thread blended throughout. It not really yarn it's more like strips of fleece fabric. The package lists acrylic, polyester, nylon, wool. It's itchy. The way it is woven it's not stretchy. The cowl I made it into is stiff, which in a way is good. I suppose the itchy sensation could be useful if I'm needing a reminder have how blessed my life as been. During those times self pity seems like the only option.

Acetaminophen will turn snakes into frogs

Operation Dead-Mouse Drop


...dead mice were pumped full of acetaminophen...The hope is that the snakes,  will be drawn to the toxic rodents, eat them, and then croak.
