Run Around Day

Today was a much nicer day than the last couple of days. So after breakfast I went outside and pruned the roses and pulled the plastic chairs and table from underneath the apple tree. We had not used them at all this year and not very much last year so I wanted to scrub them up and wash them off a little so that they would not look so bad.

I also discovered our old tether ball pole with the ball still attached; I am not sure how good the cord still is as it has been sitting under the apple tree for many a year. So if any of my children would like it let me know and you can have it; if not it is going to be a candidate for Goodwill.

Well, dragging the table and chairs out and setting them on the back lawn was all I got accomplished this morning as I needed to go inside and clean up so that we could go to the doctor's an noon. I made myself some toast to carry me over until we got back and then went and changed clothes.

After the doctor's appointment we took off to take the SUV thought DEQ. We got our certificate and also our new tags for the next two years. Kathleen had thought about getting different plates but decided to stick with the ones that she had o that was a little cheaper.

Then we headed home so that I could pick up one of my medications to get it refilled at the same time that Kathleen got her new prescription filled. On the way home I stopped and got some gas as it was below a half of a tank and it does not hurt so much as it does as when it is near empty.

When we got home I made myself a brat and sour kraut and then loaded up the dishwasher and turned it on. Then we took off for Fred Meyer to get the prescriptions filled.

While we were waiting for them to fill them we went looking for a coat for Kathleen. She found one that she liked so we went ahead and bought it as she has been looking for one for over a year.

By the rime we checked out from buying the coat the prescriptions were ready so we went and picked them up and then Kathleen wanted to try to find an ice bag; we had looked at Fred Meyer but did not find one so I suggested we try Bi-Mart.

Bi-Mart did not have the size that she wanted so they are ordering a larger one and will call us when it comes in. By the time we got home it was about 1630 so I changed my clothes and checked my email.

It is now time for dinner and I just heard Kathleen come downstairs so hopefully dinner will be ready shortly.
