Hello,
We did not have to shovel snow today,
but we did chop a little ice that was on the sidewalk. It was only a little because
it mostly did not come up. Our neighbor was busy getting snow on a pile so cars
could more easily turn the corner. I stopped and told him, “You do such a great
job opening the crosswalks.”
He replied with a grin, “It is my specialty.”
Who knew? He also sweeps up that
corner when he mows the lawn. It is amazing how much care some give to the
smallest detail.
Leroy and I went shopping this
morning, both to buy and to return one thing. I tried to tell Leroy how to
drive and he did not like that. We are still together, but we did have a few words.
Can you imagine?
We did one impulse buy. We have a
cover that stops spatters in the microwave. Once Leroy had thought he had set
the timer and instead he ran the microwave ruining the fairly new cover. I
called the company and learned that we could still use it even though it was
quite bubbly. Leroy wanted to replace it because he was embarrassed by it. I suggested
that we discard it when we move because it is a rather big bulky item. He acquiesced,
but not willingly. He was out shopping a few days ago and found one for the low
price of $1.79. He did not buy it but mentioned it. Today we went back, looked
and bought it. On the sales receipt I noticed that it was really on clearance, it
had been $10 which is more like what I had paid for the original. I guess for
that much of a bargain we can figure out how to pack it when we move.
