Oh no, Naja!
FWIW, I had one return (my fault, ordered the wrong thing), and one return (Amazon fault, they sent the wrong thing) in the last few weeks.
BOTH times they just refunded my money, no need to return the incorrect items,
So I bought 2 nice shirts that I have been eyeing.

RN, Naja, my health has taken a crazy turn the last month or so.... lung, heart, clotting issues caused by cancer treatment. Caused a huge cataract in my right eye, so hard to read and type. Working hard to get it all sorted out and back on an even keel and a chemotherapy that attacks the cancer without damaging my organs.

RN Today I officially hit the total amount I earned dog sitting for 2026 that I earned for the whole year in 2025. I think this year I will hit the max for me unless I raise my rates, because I totally over-booked myself to many times and it was just too hard some days.

RN We finally have a day without rain and it looks like it's not going to rain for at least a week, so I am going to set up my scary girl outside tonight. I'll make a video when it's done. I am lighting it with a motion sensor mini spotlight. I'm hoping for a startling effect.

RN It coming together! When it's a little darker I have to adjust the spotlight and see if I want it to be red or white, and then I'll make the video when it's dark.

RN We don’t really do much for Halloween other than a plastic electric pumpkin on our front porch. Our community has aged out over the 23 years we’ve lived here and we have very few children in the community. We’ve gone from as much as 200 to 20 or 30. We actually bought candy today. It is a guarded and gated community so we don’t get a lot of non-residents.

RN, so a gaggle of geese were flying by and all of a sudden they landed in the parking lot across from my house. They were honking away and in my head I just imagined ... George why are we stopping here? I'm tired I need a break. But George there is no water, no pond. We could just fly over a little that way and there is a river, with reeds and probably good food.
Now they have just stopped honking at each other and are wandering round the parking lot, LOL.

RN we’re exhausted but had a pretty successful garage sale today. It was community regulated as a guarded/gated community they only allow two a year. Anyhow Carey and I were up at 6 AM and out setting up tables along out driveway at 6:30 AM. We got everything out and ready by the “official” start time of 8 AM. Started out slow because of our colder than normal weather but really picked up as the day progressed. Sold a few hundred dollars of stuff and very little to donate Monday. We’re both beat!

RN have to laugh but as a last moment decision I moved an old laundry sink out that I had mentioned in the reorganization thread here to the driveway this morning. Bulk trash pickup for our community is Monday and that sink was set to go out Monday. Guess what was the first item bought this Monday? The old laundry sink and the buyer was excited that they got it. Trash to treasure. 😀

Bwahahaha, Mack! Yeah, that's the way garage sales go. We had our last ever in 1995 when we left Houston for San Francisco, and it was wild. We had a guy who stole stuff and walked out with an ancient wig on his head. We had a woman who bargained so aggressively over my lush, vintage live blooming African Violets in exquisite pots, that I ordered her off our property. Bigdog priced a Vintage London Fog jacket at $40, and I reduced it to the reasonable price of $3. Thank goodness the sensible 18 year old daughter of our neighbors across the street volunteered to help, and brought her boyfriend, later her husband, and helped us out.
Oh!!! AND the 25-ish Texas cowgirl who arrived late, and bought a LOT of the manly tools a Texas man needs to maintain his house and yard for her HUSBAND to use. She was hilarious. She was almost literally shouting YEEHAW whenever she discovered a new bargain. She bought a LOT of stuff, and praise the Lord, because we were moving to San Francisco and probably going to have to rent a 2 BR apartment in the city, which is what we did.

RN looks like a beautiful couple. Sorry you couldn’t attend.
Carey just told me we made enough money off the garage sale to cover all the cost of the various racks, containers, etc., she bought to reorganize the pantry and kitchen cabinets. Most of what we sold yesterday came from the pantry or kitchen so kind of a zero sum game. We will be going to Salvation Army tomorrow or Tuesday to donate what didn’t sell so a bit of a tax write off for this year.
