Alterations and Running Errands

I have been busy running errands early this morning. I am very short and had to have some blouses shortened. I know a lady that does marvelous work and she is fast. She is also very reasonable in her charges. I went and picked up my blouses early this morning and she did such a nice job on them. She lives in the next town, so while I was there I stopped at the grocery store and picked up a few things I couldn't get here. It is a beautiful day to do these things.

Running Errands

Boy did we get the errands run this morning. First we headed out before 7:30 am in fog to travel about 25 miles to get the car serviced at the dealer's. We were 10 minutes early and got right in and out. Then headed to the Veterans Adm. for my husband's 9:30 appt. Of course, we were very early and hardly anyone was there (and it is usually packed out) so he got in before 9 and we were on our way home early, before his original appt. In between the car and the VA we stopped & bought gas for $3.019, a bargain from our little town at$3.199. They we headed to the next town and picked up our income tax forms and found we owed at least $100 less than estimated, a happy surprise and plenty enough difference to cover the tax preparer's fee :0).Then picked up some sausage,egg and cheese crescents on sale at Hardees. Had those for breakfast and lunch or should say "brunch" and I headed to the grocery store to really stock up for the next probably 2 months except for basics -milk, bread, etc. Got that put away and cleaned up the garage and got the garbage ready to go and the mailman brought the mail. It has been a busy Wednesday and having company for lunch tomorrow so I'm ready.

Busy Day

I had a busy day today. Had several loads of washing to do and put away. A load of dishes to do and run to the bank and get a few groceries. I see gas has gone up another 7 cents. I just filled up yesterday so that was in the nick of time I guess. Went for Mexican tonight. Yum Yum That's our favorite.
