We
were up shortly after 8:00 this morning but there was something
brightening the rooms before we got up. It was so uplifting to see
the Sun even before we had the Blinds opened and we
were looking forward to it. As soon as we sat down to have breakfast
it disappeared behind a wall of Clouds. That actually set a
new record where the Sun was out for about Ten Minutes
which was more then we have seen it all week.
We
had the Leftover Manwich from last night for an early lunch
and an Applesauce Cup for dessert.
While
Kathy did up the Dishes I went downstairs to see if there were
any Shopping Carts available. Fire Marshals don’t
like those in apartment buildings because they cause hazards to
Firefighters so they actually limit the number allowed. I was
surprised to find Four by the rear entrance so I took the
largest one there.
Back
at the Apartment I loaded all the Storage Bins that we
had gone through. The problem in a Single Bedroom Apartment is
you can only fit so much before it becomes cluttered.
Armed
with our List we were soon out the door. Our first stop was
Canadian Tire. As mentioned
yesterday the LED Light Strips we purchased for under the
Cupboards had very short leads. When I checked the Electrical
Section they had nothing that would fit.
Our
next stop was at Guardian Storage
where we stopped at the Trailer. I put the roll of Clear
Wrap inside the door so we can protect the Dining Table
while our Trailer is away. While it is back at the
Jayco Factory someone might go inside and maybe drop Tools
on the Table. By wrapping it it should be protected against
damage.
Without
leaving the yard we drove over to our Climate Controlled Storage
Unit. I had to do some rearranging but we were able to add the
Storage Bins from the Apartment and not have to worry
about having an avalanche. We also gathered a couple pieces of Wood
that I’ll cut to length to stop the Love Seat from hitting
against the wall in the Apartment.
We
headed up to the Office where
Kathy spoke with Carol and Wendy while I checked our Mail. We
also talked about our former Hobby as Certified Cake
Decorators. They were amazed to hear the stories we were telling
them about the I.C.E.S. Conventions we attended and
meeting many of the TV Stars there. It was a lot of fun until
it became too demanding. Another Life.
We
stopped at Home Depot looking
for the Leads for those LED Light Strips. Not sure if
they’ll work but we might have gotten lucky.
We
stopped at Dollarama to pick up
some Pens but we also managed to get some walking in before
heading to Burger King for
supper. We used Coupons that helped keep our expenses down.
It
was past 5:00 by the time we were headed toward Amherstburg.
It was at this point we were witness to a beautiful Sunset but
it was also at that moment we realized we had left the Camera back
in the Apartment.
Our
first stop there was Pharma Care the
drug store we have been dealing with for the last Three
Years. Environmentalists proved years ago that people
flushing old Medications down the Toilette or throwing
them in the Trash were actually contaminating our Drinking
Water. Even though the Sewage is filtered much of the
Chemicals from the Medication was still being discharged into
our Fresh Water Supply. When the Trash broke down in
the Landfills and was exposed to
Rain the Medications would get into the Ground Water
before joining our Fresh Water Supply. In Ontario
and possibly more places realized that the most practical way of
cleaning your Medicine Cabinet is to bring it to a Drug
Store. Steve was more then happy to properly dispose the
Outdated Medications for us at no charge.
It
was slightly after 6:00 when we arrived at our son Kevin and
daughter-in-law Melissa’s house for a visit. Between Melissa having
had to work overtime and an emergency with her Mother it has been a
few weeks since we’ve gotten together. Her Mother is much better
now. We never run out of things to talk about and we always have fun
visiting.
It
was nearly 9:00 before we headed for Windsor.
Along the way we drove by lots of houses really decked out with
Christmas Lights and our Camera was not with us.

Quartzsite.
We truly miss being there this year and hope to go back next year.

Do you have any photos from your cake decorating days? I'd like to see some of your creations.
ReplyDeleteAnother busy day in the books for you two! Every time I don't take my camera, that's when I find I should have lol..
ReplyDeleteI learned in photography school that the best camera ever is the one you have with you. I hate it when I leave mine home!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea unprotecting you dining table. I always worry about them walking all over the carpet in their dirty footwear.
ReplyDeleteI usually always grab my camera when we walk out the door but it never fails the one time it gets left behind that is when the best picture opportunities take place.
ReplyDeleteAnother busy day for you two but it is nice to get things taken care of I am sure.
Del Rio finally has two places where we can take our old medication to be disposed of properly. For years I had to take them to Houston or San Antonio.
ReplyDeleteI have been meaning to ask you a question for days now but with my CRS I forgot what it was :-(
