The Off Topic What Did You Buy Today Thread

I also thought that I should post that I have finally moved out from my parents house and am on my own now! I graduated college in December and have been staying at home for a few months to save up some money and make sure that I am secure with a job. I finally found a place and moved in on May 7 (yeah I know I'm a little late). I'm very excited and so happy to be out on my own.

That being said, I had to purchase lots of furniture. So, I got a couch, a recliner, a bed, a dresser, and a night stand. I also had to get a washer/dryer. I still have to get a dining room table, coffee table/side table and a slim table for my bedroom (for the tv). I also got a 52" Sharp LED-LCD tv, TV stand and a Wii as a present to myself.

Congrats on your independence! It's all downhill from here!

Craigslist is your friend for furniture! Except for a bed. Mattresses and box springs I always buy new!

I just registered to re-certify in standard first aid. $95! There goes something out of my budget doggonit.

Used the Worx trimmer today.Definitely not a normal use for it since I haven't trimmed/edged all year until now. I also charged up the old one as well. It lasts about 4 or 5 minutes before you notice the charge going away quickly. It runs for about 10 minutes, but the last 5 is about worthless. (It has a NiCad battery)

This new one has a Lithium battery and it lasted 15 minutes and then just died. That should be enough to do my whole yard on a normal day or at least close to it. Today though I had to charge it two more more times to get all of the streetfront, the fenceline (inside and out) and around bushes, shrubs and all the other places. I did go ahead and buy a second battery on Amazon today so when I need it, I don't have to wait the half hour for it to charge, especially since from now on, two charges should be the most I will need.

Again, if you can actually USE one of the gas powered trimmers and not have line issues like I do, that would be the way to go. But this auto line feed stuff is the shiznit for me! Plus this thing only weighs five pounds.

Had to buy a couple of dog door flaps as Charlie tore up the ones on the outside. When they got here a couple days ago, they looked so nice (clear!) that I decided to get a couple more for the inside since the holes where you screw them in are getting elongated and will probably come apart shortly.

We bought the dogs the mid size pool today, the $15 one at Walmart. Tara spent quite a bit of time in it this afternoon. Charlie the water dog still wants nothing to do with it!
