GROCERY SHOPPING

 

It's another hump day.  And all I have planned for today is to do a grocery shop.

Of course, there's bound to be something else pop up that needs doing/getting, but for the life of me, I can't think what right now.

Oh!  Now I remember what I wanted to get while out... a lightweight jacket or cardigan.  I am starting to feel a bit cold in the mornings and evenings, and I only have a couple of heavier weight sweatshirts in me wardrobe.

Cos, well... I packed all my winter clothes and they are in a box, in storage.  If we don't sell the house by winter, I am gunna have to go through all the boxes in storage, and hope to find the one that has all me clothes in it!  😖😏

I've stewed on this all night.  Wanting to address a 'wrong' done against me.

But, this keeps coming to mind:

ABOVE: There's several 'versions' of this 'saying'... I've read several of them.  

And I've finally learnt to just walk away, it's not worth it to try and defend yourself to people who are only too happy to believe a 'story' that SUITS THEM.

It hurts, but time heals everything.

Hmmm.... it's now 1.07 pm and my day has not quite gone to plan.

I did go to the mall looking for a cardigan, but couldn't find anything I liked.  

I got a new screen saver for my phone as the current one was chipped and cracked.  That one sure didn't last long I must say.

Then before I could do any grocery shopping, I ended up having to go over to Cambridge on business.

Once that was concluded, I visited a girlfriend and her son.  Which was lovely.

Just home and I'm about to do nothing for a little while, before deciding what to do with the remainder of the afternoon.

I must finally be 'growing up'.... and I'm so proud of myself.

I could have blown my stack over 'something' last night... but I held myself in check.

I did stew about it, obviously.  But I didn't REACT like I would have in the past.  Ten outta ten to me.

Just when I thought I might lie down for a nana nap....

ABOVE: These two hooligans arrived for a swim.

Lacy and her friend Ash.

ABOVE:  Lovely to see the pool getting more use.

I've hardly been in it all summer, due to the non-stop winds.  They make it too cold for me, cos I don't 'do' cold.  As ya all know.

Well, come to think of it, I don't 'do' hot either!

I know, I'm difficult.

Happy to say I did some sewing this afternoon.  It felt really good to be back in my happy place again.

It felt like forever since I made anything... probably isn't though! lol

I haven't done enough yet to show you my latest Square Table Topper.   I surprised myself and did NOT make another blue one like I had planned to do.

Stew just arrived home from work, so I've downed tools and taken myself back to the family room, to spend the evening with him.  Cos I kinda like him.  (most days)  😂😉😊

Off to bed soon.  I'm not staying up to watch Coronation Street this evening, it doesn't start until 9.50 pm.  That's too damn late when I'm already tired.

I shall watch it sometime tomorrow.
