Friday night and Sunday afternoon, Lou and I went shopping for the bus. We needed things like curtains for the bunks and windows, curtain rods, mattress covers, sheets, pillows, towels, etc.

We went to Wal-Mart Friday night and I just found a great deal on curtains when they announced over the loudspeaker that everyone had to evacuate the building. A little later I found out that there was a fire in the store. Lou asked if we should leave and I said, “NO!” because I had just found such a deal on the curtains. About 90 minutes later they let us back in the store. The fire was in the furnace and it had been stopped. My curtains were just where I had left them.

We still need to get sheets, pillows and towels for sure.

Praise the Lord for providing the following items so far:

  • Shower: Busy Beaver had a display model that would work that they sold us for $100. We will still need to buy a smaller bottom tray but should only be about $100. PTL! for a savings of about $300.
  • Microwave: donated
  • Curtains: found them on clearance at Wal-Mart for about half priced. And they are actual curtains vs. the queen sized sheet I was going to use.
  • One TV: on sale this week at BigLots, with a DVD and VCR unit built in.
