Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

Unlike yesterday, we did not have the alarm set to wake us up, but we were both awake and ready to start the day, minutes after 8:00 this morning.
Our breakfast was different by the fact that we had the last of the Peaches that Kathy cleaned the other day, along with a Yogurt Cup at the table before enjoying our Coffees at our Computers. We even had the chance to do most of our E-reading before scrambling to start our days separately.
I actually made a handwritten List of places to go with things to do. Kathy followed me out to the Car, thinking we were going for a ride. My task was to empty the back cargo area in order to get it cleaned today. We have been using Reusable Shopping Bags long before the plastic ones were banned. We were using them in Florida and Arizona while having people ask why we were doing so. The only problem was that we eventually had Shopping Bags we carried in the Truck and the same in the Car. When they finally banned the plastic bags completely, all the different Grocery Stores, Drug Stores, Walmart and places like Dollarama started printing their own. Many gave freely through Covid. When I stopped working the Bags from the Truck were moved to the Car. Besides our battery powered Shop-Vac, our Folding Two-Wheeled Shopping-Cart was completely filled with Reusable Shopping Bags. It was brought upstairs so they can again be divided between the two vehicles. Now, if we can just remember to bring them with us, we won’t have to buy anymore.
We then sat by the front entrance waiting for our granddaughter Kylla’s arrival. She was slightly delayed by her new Kitty, avoided her attempts to put her in her Carrier, until she can be better trusted not to destroy her apartment.
Once
they were gone, I headed straight to Windsor
Gas and Diesel.
After Jim finished dealing with one customer, he immediately brought
out the package I had delivered to him. He explained the pros and the
cons about the product but guaranteed me it would work. It is set up
using the Negative
side of the Battery
and since there is no Solenoid
on our Car,
it was the best way to wire it in. He
worked for an Hour
getting it install where it cannot be seen. I tested it at only Two
Hundred Feet
away because the street was too busy with Semis.
The biggest Con
to this Switch
is I have to reset the car’s Clock
and Radio
each time it is used, but it will stop the car from driving off.
Jim gave me the business cards to the local Oil Guard business, so I headed straight to its location. I thought it strange that there was only a single car in the lot when I arrived, but the sign on the door said it all. By Appointment Only, No Walk-In Business. Closed on Friday and Sunday. Guess I’ll be calling tomorrow.
With more errands to go, I stopped at Popeye’s for a sandwich to go.
Next, I went to the Credit Union to get a little Cash for special reasons. As I was about to leave Kathy and Kylla called to say they were home, so instead of doing my last errand, I asked Kathy if she wanted to join me.
When I picked her up at the Bench we had sat on this morning, she was all smiles. Kylla said they had fun.
Our last errand was the Car Wash. Kathy moved from one window to the next as it made its way through. Amazing how much better your Car looks when you add to the Tip Jar by the Cashier.
We were just pulling away, when Kathy said she was hungry, that she had not eaten all day. First, we had breakfast and Kylla always feeds Kathy, so we stopped at McDonald’s for Fish Fillet Sandwiches before heading for home.
After watching the “6 o’clock Local News”, I made a Banana Split for a late dessert, that made Kathy smile.
The
channel that we had planned to watch until
9:00,
kept losing the Audio
every couple of minutes, so we switched over to the History
Channel.
It
just happened they were talking about UFOs
and Diseases
from Outer
Space.
I had to shut the television at 11:00
otherwise Kathy would still be up.
The Thunder is quite loud at the moment. I can only hope to get this published before we lose power.
