A Couple of Productive Days

 

Flowers on the Anthurium Plant

The anthurium plant I bought at the beginning of December 2023, is not only alive, but, flowering too! 

I've had a couple of busy days.  On Sunday, I picked the groceries I had ordered.  I couldn't access the store website through their app to let them know that I had arrived at the parking lot and let them know which parking spot I was at, so, I had to go into the store and asked a cashier to let the "click and pick" team know that I was waiting at the front of the store.  I had to talk to two cashiers before someone brought the groceries over, but, at least I received everything I had ordered and there were no substitutions.  In addition to the Thanksgiving dinner items, I also stocked up on coffee for my daughter (buy 1 get 1 free) and another container of half and half for her.

I also did two loads of laundry, dusted and vacuumed the living room and dining area, took out the serving dishes I will need for Thursday, and made the cranberry sauce.

On Monday, daughter and I had an appointment with our financial planner to go over some things.  We bought hamburgers and fries on the way home for our brunch. After resting for a bit, I did some paperwork, dusted and vacuumed the family room and checked in with former neighbor T's daughter K, to ask how T was doing (T has not been answering the phone, lately, so I talk to K, instead).  I made egg salad sandwiches for dinner and made some extra egg salad for sandwiches for Tuesday's brunch, too. 

Plans for Tuesday include an appointment with my ophthalmologist in the morning.  We are supposed to have some scattered light showers all day; the garden would appreciate some rain.

I am grateful for:

- Being able to order groceries online and pick up at the store
- Having all the groceries I wanted
- Safe drives to and from the various places I've had to go to
- Working appliances
- Anthurium flowers

I hope everyone is keeping well.
