Today was road trip day for the two older ones on Stauffer Avenue. Yesterday all was well, not a problem on the horizon. Today I knew immediately that a hair cut was needed. It was just a tuff of unruly white. How can that barometer change so quickly! Dennis always has a cap available. He is ready to go from zero to 60 in a flip of a wrist and the cap is on his head. I, on the other hand, am not that fortunate.
It wasn’t a bad idea to get me away from all tasks that would involve the right wrist. Ya . . . like that is really going to happen? I have tried very hard to give the wrist a total time out to only fail. Perhaps the best thing is to take a ride with Dennis and tuck the right hand into the pocket of my jacket and chill.
It was a good day to be out on the highway as long as the headlights and fog lights were on. The road surfaces were clear.
We stopped for a few groceries at Sam’s. Cat food and cat litter is always needed for the four footed crew. A 24 lb. bag of Meow Mix is a good buy at Sam’s. Dennis has had a bit of the flu bug and we made sure we had Pepto in the mix of items. He dang near passed out when he went to the convenience store last night and came home with a 4 oz. bottle at $5.48. Oh . . . did I forget to mention that Dennis is economically challenged. He is getting better at the realization of what groceries cost, but a convenience store is perhaps not the best choice to buy taxable. Today he got his Pepto for $.43 per oz. instead of the $1.37 per oz. We like to check out our own groceries so we can corral them into reusable bags and not have them tossed willy nilly into the cart at the will of the checker gal. Dennis does a great job of putting items in the cart with the bar codes showing and his scanning of the items go quickly.
We are home safe and sound with not a want in the world. I got a fantastic hair cut at Great Clips. Dennis doesn’t look too bad either. We are looking sharp going into the count down for Christmas.
