Busy Day!

Let's see.......I got up and showered and ate my oatmeal. Drove to the eye doctor 20 minutes away for my follow up visit. I am using the eye drops for dry eyes and have to have them checked the first few months to see if it's working. I'm happy to say that his tests show much improvement and I also feel the improvement.

After the eye appointment I drove 20 minutes in the opposite direction to the cable office. I took my number and waited for it to come up on the screen then went to the appropriate window and within seconds I had a new remote control in my hand.

Got in my car and drove about 15 minutes to the grocery store. Very thankful by that time to use their bathroom. Then stopped at their coffee counter and got myself a coffee. While drinking my coffee I filled the bottom of the cart with grocery items, paid and loaded them into the trunk of car. I keep large insulated bags in my trunk to put the items in that need to stay cool as I complete my errands.

Then drove down the street to the post office and dropped off packages and checked my PO box. I sell on eBay. I use the PO box for eBay payments. I had just sold a few items and packaged them up and printed out the shipping labels last night so I was able to just drop them off at the post office.

Then down the street I go to the pharmacy. I give them the prescription to refill my eye drops. She tells me they are out and need to order and I will need to pick up my filled prescription tomorrow after 4pm.

Around the corner I go to Costco. I have my list of needed items and Costco coupons and I stick to my list.

I then drive home. My timing is off because Jim took his mom to her dentist appointment today. Just happens that as I get home she's at the dentist and so that means that Jim is not here to help me bring all the groceries into the house! So I make my several trips from the trunk to the kitchen and unload and put everything in their appropriate places.

As I'm completing my chore of putting groceries away a car pulls up in front of the house. Jim had called this morning to get appointments to have estimates to put siding on our house. We were having our first appointment!
As this man is talking to me about all the wonderful things he can do to improve our house Jim gets home and I quickly direct them to talk to each other and I go on my way to complete my chores.

I remember that I have the new remote in my purse. It needs to be programed to work with our TV. The man had told me that the little booklet would tell me how to do this. I guess he didn't know that I'm an earthling and only understand common sense English instead of the 20 pages of different ways to program it.
I end up calling the cable company and some nice woman directs me on how to program the remote and we finally have a normal TV again.

The man leaves and Jim then shows me he had brought home Subway sandwiches for us! yum.

After eating I start laundry. Jim leaves to go help with Ryan's baseball practice. While Jim's gone I complete two loads of laundry, vacuum the entire house and mop the kitchen floor.

THEN, I promptly fall onto the couch and lie there!
