Week in review
Week in review, originally uploaded by terryhadalittlelamb.
Thursday I went over to Mom and Gary's house and we went morel mushroom hunting in their woods. We found over 30 of them. I don't like morels but I do enjoy walking around in the woods looking for them. I found a turtle shell that I picked up and brought home. Gary found a box turtle! That was possibly the cutest turtle I have ever seen! We put him back after looking at him for a little bit. Mom found a deer antler. That is the second one she has found this year. Later my brother and his girlfriend came over to visit too.
Friday I went to The Park of Roses for a walk and found a different path that I had never been down. We go to that park all of the time, I can't believe there was a place we had never walked! There were huge sycamore trees with big holes in the trunks. I read a book that said Johnny Appleseed would sleep in a hollowed out sycamore tree and couldn't figure out how he fit inside until I saw these massive trees!
Saturday was the first Clintonville Farmer's Market of the season and it was a perfect day for it. They had live music and lots of food. I ended up buying some chicken, beef, a cookie, and a tomato plant. I had a good time. Hopefully I will get to go to the farmer's market a lot this year, they have it every Saturday morning.
Later in the day on Saturday Greg and I went to The Park of Roses and walked down the "new" path that I found. He didn't know about it either. We saw the tennis courts and started talking about maybe trying to play tennis to get some exercise. We decided to go to the thrift store to look for tennis rackets. When we got there we saw a refrigerator for a really good price and we just happened to be in the truck so we bought it. We also bought 1 tennis racket.
When we got home we unloaded the fridge and I cleaned it inside and out.
Sunday we put the old fridge on the deck. This thing by the way does not have a frost free freezer which causes it to ice up and then not be cold anymore until you defrost it. It has been a major pain. We realize there was an area that didn't get painted when we did the kitchen because the cabinet was in the way so Greg moved the cabinet and I painted that area and we kind of rearranged things and put the new fridge in place and plugged it in. Now we have a bigger fridge that has a light in it(!) and a working freezer so we can make ice. You have no idea what a luxury that is unless you have lived for a long period of time without a freezer! I was really excited so I cleaned the whole kitchen really well. It looks so much better now. I even found extra space somehow.
Today I went to Walmart and stocked up on food. I bought a bunch of frozen fish and chicken. This food will last us a few weeks, maybe even a month. :P I bought some Calvo avocados which is the same brand Whole Foods sells. Seriously, you can buy good food at Walmart, you just have to read the labels and know which foods are good. I am really glad that I worked at Whole Foods for awhile so I know what the good foods are but you can buy those foods at other places for a lot less money. Go to WF for the rare things like chocolate bars with bacon in it and truffle cheese but don't waste your money on stuff you can get for a lot less money somewhere else.
I didn't do any drawing this week. I am a bit obsessed with a game called majong dimensions. I finally beat it today but I cannot stop playing it.
