At least that is what the weatherman says. Well, yesterday was jam packed. I went to church with Carol and Del, and they had plans for a family day at Del's home, so we didn't do brunch. They had warned me of that earlier in the week, but I forgot. Didn't make a problem, cause I had my bowl of cheerios before church, and after I came home and started making a shopping list for the afternoon. Annie had promised me she would take me shopping at 1 p.m. or so....and they were taking pictures for their Christmas card first. I didn't realize it was going to be downtown with some great backgrounds. Anyway I think it was closer to 2:30 when they stopped to pick me up on their way home. We dropped the kids off, and she made a peanut butter sandwich for each of us, and headed off.
We started at Kohls, but that was a walk in and a walk out, checking the prices of their vacuum's. I broke mine earlier in the week, so had to touch up the entry way with my hand held vacuum. Anyway, from their we headed to Old Navy, and almost finished my list of things I needed from there....just a problem with a few sizes not available at that store, and when I got home I checked them online, and couldn't find them there either. So will have to try some other stores in the area.
Then we hit Walgreens, and got some terrific deals there and got an extra $10 off there with rewards points. Michaels was next on my list, and we went in for yarn, and came out with just yarn. Pretty good!! Then we headed to cub for groceries, and Annie did some for their house as well. So with groceries in the bag, we headed back to Annie's and she invited me to have dinner with them, before she took me home. That worked great. I got home about 6:20 or so, and went right to the couch to rest my wearie bones. What a great day of shopping. Almost done with the big shopping for Christmas. Must get stocking stuffers, and gift cards yet....but not much else.
I've already cleaned both bathrooms this morning, and rearranged the linen closet with all the stuff I bought yesterday, and talked to a neighbor for a while, and read the obits to find out when my friend Kathie Kelly's mom's funeral is. The wake is tonight, and the funeral tomorrow, so I need to find someone from the FF or SMA grads group to take me along with them. Kathie and I went to SMA together, and have been good friends for years. Her mom was 93, and the first Friday group have kept up to date on her moves for the last couple of years, but knew she was declining this last year. The sad thing was that Kathie was on a tour of the Holy Land, and on her way home when she died, so she was not there when she did pass away. Prayers for her and her family please.
Other than that, I have a few things to do on the computer and crocheting to do. Love and Prayers, m
