Waiting for new furniture

A day and half I will have new furniture. Tonight moved cat toys out of the way for movers.

At work, didn't get a chance to tell hardly anybody about my "new furniture" cause we were busy helping people. No big sale was going on so don't know what prompted that. They had to call people on their day off to come work from the high traffic we had. Brought in candy to work my sister gave me and most of it is gone. She bought it to toss at some parade and didn't go to it so she just wanted to get rid of it. She lets her kids each have 1 piece of candy per day, so the 4th of July candy is going down tummies slowly.

We noticed some new summer styles out and wondered why put those out when we have Autumn stuff coming in. Where were these dresses and shirts and shorts last month or even May? Maybe it was stuffed in the back and manager decided to bring it out before Winter shows up. I have enough clothes, I don't need more no matter how prety they are.

One gal finally got the ok to allow the fire department to burn her flooded house down. One year after the flood and dealing with insurance and FEMA (both turned her request for help down). Insurance did cover her lost belongings she had to replace, but not rebuilding the house even though it is a total loss. FEMA rejected any assistance whatsoever. City council had to ok the burning her house down and she had to pay the fire department to do it for her. But she got the fee to burn it from somewhere so she can finally get rid of it and sell the land w/out a house the new owners have to tear down. She plans to live in another city when she can afford to buy a new house.

Well, not much else to say.
