My favorite brother sent me a meme that contained a statement as true as any I’ve ever read. It said:
“People don’t want to hear your opinion. They want to hear THEIR opinion come out of YOUR mouth.”
something we can ALL agree on
It’s a fact — not just an opinion — that you must pay attention to pricing. If you don’t, you’ll get taken advantage of in the worst ways possible.
Here’s just one example… I use Truvia sweetener in my coffee and always buy in bulk and infrequently. The image below is comprised of 2 honest to goodness screenshots of the exact same product being sold at the exact same time by 2 different companies. Both offer free shipping.

You guessed it! The one on the left is Amazon. The one on the right is Sam’s Club. A couple bucks here and there is one thing, but the 100+ people that fell for the Amazon pricing within the last month are so dumb I don’t care what their reviews claim. 🙄
wintertime dog problems: not much you can do about it
The cold days combined with snowfall has my three hounds wanting out millions of times per day. Of course, they don’t want to stay out long.

My floors are a mess with doggie footprints. Their skin is itchy so there’s that to contend with too. The out/in cycle is on constant repeat just like the movie, “Groundhog Day” with Bill Murray. And speaking of groundhogs… Punxsutawney Phil did see his shadow on Monday, Feb. 2, this year which means, according to the legend, six more weeks of winter are on the way.

I’m complaining now — just think what it will be like when all this stuff melts.
Now you know: Groundhog Day was first marked in the U.S. with a prediction by Punxsutawney Phil in 1886. He moved to Gobbler’s Knob in 1887.
