Some more stuff

 Jan 5 Thursday. Exercise class this morning.  When we got home I repotted my plant and cleaned my ovens. Last nights dinner overflowed and made a mess in the lower oven.  Since I was already cleaning I went ahead and cleaned the upper one too.  We walked our 1 1/2 miles in the afternoon and then had dinner.  I heated up the leftover quiche and made salads to go with it.  Tomorrow is grocery day so I made a menu for the next week so I could complete my list.  Groceries have become so expensive that I don’t want to waste food by just buying whatever.  Especially when it comes to fruits and veggies.  

Friday, Jan 6. Not much going on today.  We did our weekly grocery run and then it Staples for a couple of things.  Bill decided to head over to Cabela’s.  He had picked up some shirts there before and wanted to see if they had any more.  They did so he got those.  We thought we would give the points to our friend Terry, who has an account there, but it was not listed under his cell phone number and I didn’t have his old house phone number.  Since we got back later in the afternoon I didn’t want to spend a lot of time and energy on dinner.  I had a chicken breast thawed out and had planned on making Mongolian Chicken but I purchased some frozen stir fry veggies and just handed the chicken to those with some teriyaki sauce and brown rice.  Good meal.  We did get our second walk in today.  

Saturday, Jan 7. Today is the first game of the basketball season for Rory and Nick.  Nick is the team coach.  They didn’t win but they did have a strong showing.  We will go to as many games as we can.  After the game we went to BJ’s for lunch/dinner.  Before the game we got our morning walk done.  It was cold with frost on the grass. I think it was about 31 degrees.  Since I bundle up and walk fast I was warm.  Bill was feeling off in the evening so we didn’t go for our second walk.  

Sunday, Jan 8. Today was laundry day.  We didn’t go anywhere all day. We did take our two walks. I made beer cheese soup and cornbread muffins for dinner. We watched a bit of football, the Bengals played and won their game.  

Monday, Jan 9. I had to go and have blood drawn for lab work this morning before breakfast. I see my rheumatologist next week and have to have this done for her.  After getting home I had breakfast then we went to exercise class.  We don’t normally go on Monday but we have an appointment on Wednesday and won’t be able to go then.  After class we stopped and got a Mega Millions lottery ticket.  It is over $1.1 billion so I hope to win something.  Since we had an eye appointment at 1:20 we decided to stop at Jimmy John’s and have lunch. We usually get their little John sandwiches. This killed time until we had to be at the eye doctor.  Bill got new glasses.  I will get new ones in a dipole of months when I decide whether to get sunglasses or regular glasses.  Lastly, we went to get gas for my car.  I have $1 a gallon off so I filled my car for $2.19 a gallon!  Those Kroger points come in handy.
