I gave thought to returning to work today, but then realized I had too many stupid little things needing doing.

So it was an "at-home" day for me.

Not that I stayed at home--by Monday I have remembered what I forgot to get on the end of the week "big" shopping, so WalMart was on the agenda.

I'm a little annoyed at them. The last time I was in there they were preparing for Inventory.

I guess that got done, but now they have a lot of shelves really needing merchandise on them.

For example: The pet food section doesn't have their house brands back on the shelves! I could better understand if it was the name brands, but to run out of house brands? I got some food for the cats, but not enough for a week, or for change in "flavor" on a more or less daily basis.

If I get sufficiently bored I may even write them a letter about this.

Fortunately, the "associates" were their usual pleasant selves and sympathized with me about the post-inventory mess.

Barring something unforeseen, I'll be back at work at Newcomb tomorrow.

Just in time, too--temps in the 90s are back in the weather forecast.

The assorted critters seem content with the food I put out, and I don't see or hear any signs of scrapping at the food dishes.

Once again, an IUD.
