Well, financially things are somewhat back to normal… hopefully. The past week has been typical other than that one of our cats got a teeth cleaning. Yeah, that would be Chewy.
Well, when he returned, it wound up that a tooth had to be pulled his mouth was so bad. Poor bugger. He is getting back to his usual self though.
Saturday was perhaps the most eventful day in any case. With how my computer died, the TV died and the refrigerator died last month… I suppose it is no surprise that our Dryer died this morning.
So, grocery shopping was postponed so they could search for a new dryer and washer. Yes, they also got a new washer. It can still serve, but it is old and was saved from a  trash heap.
Well, Dad and I got around to grocery shopping by two. I hadn’t eaten since seven this morning,s o Dad offered to stop by Subway when we were heading back home from the store.
We stopped by Subway. There were already four people inside. There usually are two workers, but today there was one. The boy looked swamped. He was trying to handle three sandwiches at once when we entered, they no longer had a certain type of bread in stock and he threw trash at the can instead of walking over to the can, which I assume was done to save time.
We waited a long time, but when the food was paid for, I added in a tip for the guy, that was forty cents less than the total price of the sandwich. It was not a lot since it was just a sandwich, but it was the best I could do. I would have given him twice the price if I had to cash. I was just happy I could give him that much. I felt rather sorry for him.
I ate half the sandwich while we headed back for home and put the rest aside to put up groceries. whent hat was done, I sat down briefly to eat the rest of my sandwich before heading out again. Mom had some errands to run and I was to go with her. So, we left to a healthfood store where she stocked up on things she couldn’t find at a regular grocery store. After that we stopped by another health food store where she got tea. After that we stopped by a craft store to get quilt supplies. She plans to try to make me a quilt now. We picked out fabrics from a design and considered the math and got the fabric and thread. Once that was accomplished we checked out and headed for the car again.
When putting the fabric stuff into the sewing room and watching my dad, brother and mother figure out the new washer, I retreated to my room and collapsed. Walking on concrete or tiled surfaces for about three hours really takes a toll on my joints – my hips especially… so, I rested my body.
I woke up about five hours later. Heh. Mom was still up, dad was in bed and I did some of the dishes while heating up some left over rice from the day before. I ate and then checked on my mom. She was heading for bed soon, but I asked her to explain the laundry washer to me just in case. After that she let the dogs out for a while and headed for bed.
Now it is just me.
