After posting our Blog later then I wanted last night I knew there was no way I could be awake enough at 5:00 to go to the Gym. Instead I set the Alarm an Hour later so I would feel slightly rested. Having awakened a few times while rolling over then hearing the Heavy Rain against the Window at 3:15 when I looked at the Clock that read 5:30 I knew it was time to get started.
Before
going out the door I glanced out the Balcony
Door
seeing dry spots in the parking lot I simply walked out with daytime
attire. When I got to the rear entrance the Rain
was pouring down. Not wanting to get overly wet I went back to the
Apartment
and put on my Raincoat.
Heading back out the rear entrance the Rain
had stopped but only because I had my Raincoat.
That
doesn’t happen often.The Rain just Stopped.
Even
though I was slightly later then usual it seemed the Rain
had delayed others from arriving earlier. One
Routine
just flowed into the other and I was close to leaving at my regular
time but when I headed into the Locker
Room
someone had used the Locker
right next to mine and had all his stuff spread out. Figuring he
wouldn’t be too long I returned to the Resistance
Machines
for another Half
Hour.
When
I returned to my Locker
I found the person just packing up was John another
Tradesman
I worked with
for many
years with before I retired. That
doesn’t happen often but
we’ll
get a chance to catch up later on.It is still dark out when I arrive most mornings.
After getting to the Car I called to see if Kathy wanted to get out before it got too Hot this afternoon. When she said yes I headed to the Apartment to pick her up. I had the chance to hang my gear to dry before we left.
Taking the Expressway it didn’t take long to get to the Walmart on the west end of the City. I dropped Kathy off so she could get some walking exercise in while I took care of my business.
It’s been over Two Years since our Family Doctor has sent me for Blood Test and when I last saw him he figured it was time. While Kathy was walking I went to the Dyna-Care medical lab at the other end of the parking lot. It took nearly a Half Hour but that should make George happy for another year or more. When I was done I simply called Kathy and met her outside Walmart. That doesn’t happen often.
Since
I hadn’t had breakfast we went to Wendy’s
to try their Breakfast
Menu.
Unfortunately they stop serving breakfast at 10:30
so we ended up having Salads
for brunch. We were surprised they no longer serve the Half
Sized Salads
so we were quite full when we left.
We drove across the street to Princess Auto. Since this was Tuesday the first day of this Sales Event I knew that they should have what I was looking for. After looking around the store Twice I asked one of the Clerks. After the same results even though their Computers showed they had Hundreds in stock they could not be found. There were Six Clerks looking for a product that should have been on the shelf. They were finally found still in Boxes behind the Cashiers. I got Two so that problem doesn’t happen again.
We swung by Guardian Storage to check for Mail and a Package that should have arrived yesterday. When I walked in Sarah had just left a message on our Home Phone that the Package had just arrived.
By the time we got home the Heat was noticeable. In the Apartment after cleaning up a Cantaloupe for future desserts I finally headed for my Computer. The Weather Network showed our temperature felt like 104 F (40 C). After reading for nearly an Hour my eyes would not stay open and remained closed for over an Hour. That doesn’t happen often because I can normally fight it off.
In order to fully wake up I started chopping the remaining Vegetables we had in the Fridge to make a Stir-Fry for supper. There was Broccoli, Carrots, Celery, Cherry Tomatoes, Onions and Peppers. We had Stir-Fry Veggie Wraps with Shredded Cheddar Cheese for supper and Mixed Berry Crumble Pie for dessert. There’s enough Leftovers for another meal but we have to go shopping for more Veggies.
Tomorrow looks like it will be another busy day.

You know you’re getting old when you sing along with the elevator music.
Indeed you had a full day of "it doesn't happen often". I do hope you get to meet up with your former coworker.
ReplyDeleteP.S. This is the first time I have heard of Mixed Berry Crumble Pie.
ReplyDeleteJust a quick note that I also had blood drawn recently, for the first time since 2017. Everything was fine. I cold not believe that it had been that long. Covid got in the way I guess. Glad you had an interesting day.
ReplyDeleteMixed berry crumble sounds yummy to me! :)
