Today's News and Weather Report
Nov. 23rd, 2010 04:47 pmToday I went to Hastings and ran errands while it was nice out. Got a few must-haves for T'Day (ex: the local grocery store didn't have any butternut *or* acorn squash, how weird is that?) plus I saved about 50 cents per package by buying kitteh noms from the Evil Empire. *sighs* Yes I know, I know -- I loathe buying there but sometimes there is no other option. I will just have to watch the other stores sales a little closer.
My cold is improving some but not as much as I'd like. Mostly because I didn't have any of my "super-duper cure-all brands" that always make me feel better. (Yes, I know it's probably all in my head but still... I know what works for me, and even if it is nothing more than the placebo effect I'll still go with 'em. ;)
But if it doesn't improve by next week (i.e., Monday), I *maybe* will go to dr. then.
More yakking...
I also picked up a new pair of sweat pants there, just to check out the sizes. The sweats I have are almost absurdly large, and if there is one thing I hate it is being able to grab huge handfuls of loose fabric in my jeans/sweats etc. Tops don't bother me but oh how I loathe super-lose pants. So if these fit nicely enough, I will go back and buy some more. At $7, that's not too different from what they cost at SA and Goodwill and as we all know by now, plus sizes are hard to find -- and fit. [g]
I intended to look around downtown for some things after I finished at EE and groceries but it was starting to get iffy out. The weather is supposed to turn to freezing drizzle later on (or about now, even). Oh yes, and *windy* which means (oh joy) *Wind Chills*. Gah. My sibs who live in "the colder states know what I mean, right? Right. ;) And since I have zero interest in driving in those conditions unless forced by absolute direst necessity, I came home early and unloaded the groceries and stuff.
As for tonight, I will be working on my prezzie fics.
