tvordljApparently, the local mall is heaving with people and the traffic coming and going is beyond belief. No surprise there. One week before Christmas? I wouldn't go near there today for any amount of money. I bet the WalMart is equally bad. Sis's fella, Rick, came over and fixed my kitchen light so now i have brightness and can see! Yes, i could get the building people to do it but the thing is, the light fixture that was there before and that broke isn't theirs, it was one Dad put up for me. I kept the original one and that's the one Rick put back up. I'll have to patch a couple of holes where the old screws were and then maybe i'll repaint the ceiling. Mom has some leftover i think i could probably use. It's a very small kitchen.
Rick dropped me down to the local grocery story (not at the mall!) and the parking lot was quite full. There are other stores in that little shopping centre but i figured most of the traffic would be in the grocery store, A. because of impending Christmas and B. there's supposed to be a storm tomorrow and people go nuts stocking up even though it's only one day of bad weather. Anyway. All those people for all those cars? No idea where they were because they weren't in the grocery store. It was not busy at all! It was after 3 p.m . but that isnt' all that late. Had a nice chat with my friendly neighbourhood produce manager, an old school friend of mine and picked up what i needed. I'd forgotten my list but there were only two things i missed off it and neither are needed right now. I'll have to go back again this week as I'm expecting those new tops to arrive and the post office is also in the same place. I'll pick up what i need then. If i remember.
Still cold today but no wind so it feels warmer. Getting warmer is probably the indication that the snow is on its way. I can make candy tomorrow and get the laundry done. I also am going to try out a Jamie Oliver recipe for Pork Vindaloo (curry). Nom!
