Where has all the John Deere stuff gone????

Today was a bight, sunny and warm (VERY!) day. Andrew and Cindy took me to lunch and we ate at surely one of the last remaining Ponderosa's! Which is a shame because their buffet is always tasty. AND they offer a SENIOR DISCOUNT if you're over 55. I turned 57 today. Wow, where have the last two years gone?

After lunch we stopped at the new Rural King. I was excited because they always have John Deere stuff like shirts and stuff for the home. We went in and were greeted by an (I think he was) automated man. He waved and everything! Too bad he was pretty much selling the store. Cool though. I headed toward the clothes and circled and circled again. NO JOHN DEERE! I said "This is Rural King and there's no John Deere and that's just... just...." My son filled in with "wrong!" No kidding! I scoured the store for John Deere items. All I came up with was JD tractors for kids and little JD toys. Not what I had in mind! I am brokenhearted now! :-(

Luckily Cracker Barrel still carries some stuff so I guess I'll have to make a run out there. And my sweet sis even gave me a CB gift card for my birthday so I can go hog wild! (Get it?)

Oh! Have to tell you about one of the cool gifts my son and daughter-in-law gave me. They found a tablet that says "Stop me before I volunteer again". OH MY GOSH! That is sooooo me! I don't know where they find these great items - they won't tell!

It's ebay time so I must jump over and get busy. Hope you all had a good day, too!
