Another Friday almost over. Time does fly by while it is dragging along. Very little was accomplished again today. A couple of phone calls and online orders were completed, but that seems so little for a whole day. <smile> Online shopping can take far longer than being in a store or two. Living out in the middle of the forest, though, means that fewer stores are available for in person shopping. So, today I had to hunt and order a few needed items. Groceries were ordered for pickup later this evening. As always, withing the hour after I've finalized the order, two or three needed things came to mind that were not on that list. They will need to wait until the next time I order or head out, I guess. I keep a list on the side of the fridge where items are recorded as the last of something is used or running out is immanent. For some reason, this week found several items that I'd noted verbally while in a different room and promptly forgot them when I was in the kitchen next. Again, frustrating. Thankfully, none of these things are necessary so waiting until next week will not be too much of a trial.
When out tonight, I was glad for the heated seats in the car as it cooled quickly after sunset. We expect single digit lows overnight. When it had been close to 15C in the afternoon, this change can be shocking. The warmed seat felt comforting, too -- like being wrapped in a heated blanket while in a cold emergency room or -- better yet -- a warm hug on a cold day. It soon may be time to pull out the winter clothes for a refresh.Sadly this means putting the summer clothing away since there is no room in the closet for both. Nor is there any need for both to be out during winter here. So another task hits that infamous to do list <smile>.
The continued changes in nature brought lyrics to mind from a '60s song. The duo was the beginning of a lengthy career for one member. Stay safe. Enjoy!
