Shelter from the Storm

Sep 28, 2019 00:02


Was woken up by a freaking LOUD storm directly overhead. I got up. Zara made the same noise that she makes sometimes when I feed her and jumped on my lap to snuggle. I am loved and she is loved :)

Mimi was measuring up the jump to the table when she abruptly decided to use my lap as a stepping stone. She got on the freezer only to find that the dry food bowl was empty. The horror! Mommy filled the bowl and saved the day.

Threw myself together and went to run errands. I went to the Lincoln Park District gym, and the person to whom I needed to talk had left. At least I got a name and when she works.

Ran to the credit union and made my car payment. I have only $480 left to pay. Drove past a restaurant at which Mom and I had gotten delicious biscuits and gravy. Blew past the gas station, thinking about biscuits and gravy. Went to Dollar Tree to pick up odds and ends, including more blue baskets. Backtracked to the restaurant to get my fix. Left in a food coma. Remembered to get gas this time. Went to Walmart and picked up Zara's meds and some makeup.

Called Mom and wished her a happy birthday.

Took a nap. Got up to feed the cats.

I forgot to switch my credit card on file with Home Chef, so I fixed it. Expensive mistake because they charge me extra.

Here comes another storm.

Shopped until I dropped on Walmart Grocery and submitted my order for pickup. Got dry cat food and filing supplies on Amazon. Now the plan is to work on organizing the pantry. (I don't think that I could sleep with a loud storm overhead anyway!)
