Shopping Spree

Tuesday, July 27th 2010

I couldn't sleep again.  I was up until 7am despite several attempts.  When I finally woke up again it was 4:30pm.  Finally!  Some decent sleep!

I got showered and dressed, had coffee, packed up some errands and off I went!  Adria's working so I can't deliver her Avon.  It's too late to call the bank.  I dropped off Dayna's library books (accidentally forgot mine), dropped a letter off to Social Services to confirm my attendance August 26th for my SSD hearing, and went on a shopping spree!

Ok, so I went to Aldi, not the most exciting of stores, but it's about the only place I can afford right now.  I bought cereal, basil, stuffing, pasta, sauce, peppers, zucchini, asparagus, toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, forgot razors, potatoes, onions...I just kept going!

Then I got to the checkout.  I didn't think to bring bags.  I didn't want to buy more.  I loaded everything in the trunk of the car sans bags.  When I got home, I got bags out of the apartment, went back to the car, loaded my purchases into the bags and hauled it all inside!  It took three trips.  The last trip was only a case of water, but that's heavy enough!

For my next trick, I attempted to put it all away.  The freezer was easy.  The refrigerator was easier.  The cabinets were challenging!  I need more cabinets...or a pantry.  Somehow I managed.
