Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario.
Last night Kathy asked if I had set the alarm so that we’d
get the truck in for the oil change on time. My response was we’d get up when
we got up because if I set the alarm neither of us would sleep properly because
our subconscious would keep us awake. I think that’s what we’ll do from now on
because we both only woke a few times and fell back to sleep simply by rolling
over. I slept so well Kathy had to wake me which in itself is unusual and I felt
like I was in a fog for over an hour after getting out of bed.
Again this morning we didn’t have time to go to the
computers and I needed to remove a few things from the truck. While I did that Kathy
went to take care of Kelly’s kitten she is taking care of while Kelly visits
her sister in Calgary, Alberta with her parents. Once we were finished with
those chores we were on the road with both vehicles.
Luckily we were at the Ford dealership twenty minutes early
but by the time the paperwork was finished it was right on time. Now we headed
across town for Kathy’s Podiatrist appointment.
Just as we were about to turn into the parking lot Kathy saw
we were nearly an hour early so we continued a few blocks down the road and
went to Home Hardware. They often times have very unique things that you just
can’t find in the big box stores plus the normal hardware found everywhere
else. Their service is much more personable than the bigger stores as well. While
walking around we also ran into Gord Mac-Endough who I also worked with for
many years. Of course it was like a crash course in catching up in the short
time we had and leaving with the promise of meeting again. We walked out of the
store without buying a thing but now if someone were to ask us where they might
find something special we can tell them.
Back at the Podiatrist office we didn’t wait too long to be
called in. The assistant that we’ve known for the last few years was bubbling
at the seams to tell us she had bought her first Christmas Gift the other day.
With only 111 days until the big day she is still jealous that we’ve been
finished our shopping and wrapping for over a month. She used our advice and
said she saved herself more on the cost by buying it now than waiting for the
Christmas Sales when the prices are inflated so the sale price is still higher
than buying it now.
We stopped at Wendy’s and dined from their $1.89 menu where we
managed to satisfy our hunger without breaking the bank. We were taking our
time eating and talking when the phone rang to inform us that the truck was
ready to go. Picking up the truck I was pleasantly surprised that the cost was
less than the quote.
Back at the apartment I went online to research where the
Cabin Air Filter was located for our truck and I was very specific as to the year and model. Following
the instructions I tried finding the location of the filter that the site said
and couldn’t find it. Inside I mentioned this to Kathy and she helped in
researching this only to have two sites giving different descriptions and two
more sites stating our year and model doesn’t have this feature. Guess I’ll just
have to try back at the dealership.
For supper I grilled a couple of nice sirloin steaks on the
Webber Q while Kathy cooked a nice Butternut Squash and Taco salad to go with
it. Tomorrow we have someone coming to town to buy our file cabinet and then
the rest of the day is ours. Thanks for following along and feel free to leave
a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Move Over, Leftovers I
don't care how many times you put your name on that sandwich in the fridge. If
it's there for more than a week, it's going in the trash. If you are a repeat
offender, I might trash it after a day for the fun of listening to you complain
to everyone in the office about how someone keeps stealing your lunch.
