Busy Day

Busy day yesterday. We set off to Marsha;;'s Fabric store on the southside of the city. I went there to pick up some large spools of thread. They are much cheaper there than anywhere else. That accomplished we headed to WEM to pick up new crocs. With the problems with my feet, knees and hips, Crocs are the most comfortable footwear for me. Our last pair of crocs lasted three years ! I had bought a new pair to wear in the hospital - and then found out that no, I needed lace up shoes ! I wear them every day so I certainly got my money's worth out of them. 

We popped into TNT but I found the prices even more expensive than our usual grocery store. Disappointed there. We set off for The Wholesalers and again I was disappointed so we drove back home and did our grocery shopping where we do 90%  of our shopping.  Firstly though we stopped at a Walmart on the west end of the city and I found the colours that I was looking for. I tried on a couple of bras and two clearance items, but they were all too big. As Hubby was, as usual, chomping at the bit, I gave up and will go by myself later on. It's been 3 or 4 years since I have bought bras !!

Because I cleaned the downstairs freezer, we didn't pick up any meat. Just fruit, veggies and cheese with a few other items. It is so nice to have fresh fruit and veggies because the crisper a were empty for a few days !! For lunch I had cucumber. It was lovely !  

While Hubby and YS had chilli for supper, I stripped the rotisserie chicken and made soup. That will be for our lunch today. For supper, we'll have ham, potato salad, coleslaw, devilled eggs and corn on the cob. In the cooler weather next week, I will make s one recipes from the Outlander Kitchen. Today is to be near 30* C so the oven will not be turned on.

While watching the Democratic Convention I worked on my quilt. I have had to make some more hexagons  in the green gingham to complete the centre blocks. Thank goodness I had a few scraps left !  I've decided I need to finish the 28 blocks before I finish the last three stockings.

YS has gone to work today. The medication was quite harsh on his system.ED went to Diner en Blanc last night. Looks like she had a good time. ES is going up to Slave Lake to do some fishing. The other grandparents are going to look after him. Hmm 4 days....They are exhausted after one day !

This morning will be a toss up - outside or down in the basement.
