It's the end of the fiscal year and the organization that volunteer for is basically out of money until the new fiscal year begins I think in July. A lot of this of course depends on what the president does as far as cutbacks to organizations like private nonprofits and such. Whatever he decides will certainly change perhaps how we do business as far as assist, inc goes. So we don't have anybody to really give money to right now so no meeting today how much was okay with me. The cold low pressure system is trying to move out and the good weather is not really here yet so why not just hang out but I did not do that. Once I struggled into my clothes I had some facsimile of a breakfast I decided I would catch the bus and go up to Walmart and purchase a toaster. I have been using a toaster oven for the longest time- - truly I don't even know how long I've had this device I know I brought it over from the house when the marriage dissolved. And it's been working okay except for the last month or so for some reason it's decided to stop toasting the bread or whatever I choose to toast or roast. It gets the bread warm almost to the point where it might be toast like but just Peter's out at that point. I should enjoy what I've got but I'd rather have toast- real toast with Crispy crusty Brown markings and such. That's all I ever use the toaster oven for. I have tried to use it for other items but if you know how things go if you try to cook something in the toaster oven it really becomes quite a mess even things like hot dogs and such the grease has got to go somewhere which means at some point in time you have to climb into that oven and clean it out. Even if you don't cook anything in the oven and just toast the crumbs eventually become unbearable sort of like the paper shredder you can only shred so much paper before you have to empty the container. So I didn't get or want a toaster oven. I like the thought of a toaster oven like it could be really helpful if the toaster oven was just easier to handle. Who knows Never Say Never baby if I had more room. It took me a while after I got to the Walmart to try to figure out which toaster that I wanted. Of course I didn't want to spend a lot just something to crisp up the bread, bagel or whatever. I finally decided on a fairly inexpensive model from Hamilton Beach just a two slicer but it seems to have everything I'm going to need to toast the bread or whatever else I may choose to consider.
It was a bit of a challenge getting the toaster home, I did some other shopping while I was at the Walmart in the grocery section. I almost opened up the package but I got it to the apartment but I've learned that trying to plug something in the far wall of the countertop it's just a challenge and a half. I also have to decide whether I'm going to do with the toaster oven that's currently in the spot. That was enough for me to put the toaster aside and wait for tomorrow when Melissa is here.
