Saturday Shopping

 Once again I could not go to sleep last night.  Finally got up around 0030 because I was hungry and had a couple crackers.  Not good because I had to test my glucose this morning...

I was up at 0715, felt rested so I guess all is good.  I had Kite Hill Greek yogurt with blueberries for breakfast, coffee and some soy milk.  When Jim got up around 1030 he had instant oatmeal.

I finished up some Pooh cards that I started yesterday.  The kit is from Echo Park



Yesterday Sonsearae sent a text asking if I'd like to go to an estate sale after she gets off work on Saturday...Sure!  It can be fun looking through other folks belongings. And spending time with this young lady is always fun.

On Saturday she works until noon and another text this morning had me scurrying to get ready.  I was folding clothes but left that for later.  Jim and I hopped (? we didn't really hop!) in her car and we headed to Canopy Roads for some lunch/breakfast.  Once our meal was over we drove a short distance to check out this sale.  The home belongs to an elderly couple who have moved into a retirement home.  This was the second weekend of the sale but there was a lot to look at with reduced prices.  I bought a can of bug spray, actually Sonsearae paid for it.  But it was only $2.  She was able to pick up a lot of new gift bags for birthdays and Christmas.  I'm not sure what all she got but it was two tubs and a Halloween sign for a friend.  Jim didn't find anything he needed.

We dropped Jim at home and continued on,  going to Aldi then Publix for some groceries.  A fun four hours shopping with our beautiful daughter.  Jim was snacking on trail mix and watching YouTube when we returned.

Once I put everything away it was time for coffee.  I caught up on my games and read for awhile.  Oh I also finished folding the clothes and put them away.

I was a bit surprised when the AC came on around 1730!  I think that's the earliest this summer.  Our days are warming up but it usually stays cool inside with the ceiling fan.  Of course we run it at night setting the thermostat at 75.

 Friday started at 0615 for me.  Slept pretty good.  It was a bit overcast but the sun coming up has cleared the skies

Leftovers for breakfast, mashed potatoes, peas and gravy.  Today I'm getting a pair of shoes and we're having lunch out

Yesterday I actually got tired from (and sore) from sitting so much.  Even though I had chores and I stand when making cards.  Do you have a smart watch?  Mine is programed to remind me to stand every hour. And most days I do.

Jim got up a little earlier today!  He shaved all those ugly grey whiskers off his face and looks ever so nice.  Trimmed his mustache also.  Then he got dressed for our outing.  I stripped the bed and got the sheets washed and dried.  Still need to make it 😖

I had an appointment to pick up my shoes.  The VA gives us shoes! Two pair a year.   They are orthopedic and quite comfy.  The four pair I have right now are sneakers/tennis shoes.  But there are other options.  After picking up the shoes we went out to lunch choosing Osaka for some yummy hibachi food.  During the day the hibachi tables aren't used but it's still good.  The servings are large enough for another meal

As we sat there I could see dark clouds moving in.  Checked the app on my phone and we were in for a storm!  Made it all the way home before large splats started falling.  Got inside and the skies let loose.  Jim opted for a nap.  I fought the urge!



Spent the afternoon watching you tube and playing games.  A little light reading

Just finished a bowl of pea soup.  I can and sometime do eat soup everyday...Jim has sandwiches I have soup.
