I was hoping to get another restful night’s sleep in last night, but it didn’t happen. Thinking I could just go straight to Bed and sleep, did not work. I still ended up in my Recliner in the middle of the night, before returning to sleep in the bed.

I was up by 7:30 this morning, so after getting as ready as possible for breakfast and opening the Balcony Blinds, I headed to the Computer. Looking outside confirmed what “The Weather Network” was showing. The sky was Overcast with a temp of 28 F (-2 C). They also forecasted a high of 41 F (5 C) this afternoon, but we would again make it to 45 F (7 C).

Luckily, Kathy had slept well, so was wide awake sitting at her Computer, when the phone call for a Package delivery came in for us.

We settled for Grilled Cheese with Olives for lunch before heading out.

Since this is Election Day on our Province, we did walk past the Voting Poll down in the Lobby. Since we had already voted at the Advanced Poll, we simply ignored it, but will use it come the next Election.

Our very first stop was Guardian Storage where I collected the Mail and the Package. Kathy did not realize that I had ordered “The Legend Of John Lea”, the 13th Book in that series. In total we now have 47 Books written by Nick Russell, who we met before he published his first Mystery book. After reading his first, Kathy told him that he had to keep writing and he has. He weaves stories that keep you wondering “Who did it?”

We stopped at the Pioneer gas station to fill the Car with Gasoline. At $1.499/Litre ($5.673/US Gallon) the cheapest we’ve seen in a long time, it still cost $65.00 to fill.

Our next stop was the Motor City Community Credit Union to do some banking, since our our Government Pay-Cheques came in. We managed to do most of it here, before driving over the Bank, to put some Eggs in a different basket.

We then headed back to The Bulk Barn to pick up some healthy snacks at bargain prices, before going over to the Zehr’s grocery store. Since this was Thursday, all the shelves had been restocked with lots of the items we needed at reduced prices.

It was too early to eat out, so we headed for home. As we were loading our Two Wheeled Folding Shopping Cart, we could see water droplets hitting the Car. That helped us to move a lot faster. Inside the Apartment it would take nearly Two Hours to clean up the Strawberries, cut up a huge Salmon Fillet into meal sized portions, and get everything else put away.

We then shared a Store-Bought Thin-Crust Medium Hawaiian Pizza, with extra Pineapple and Mozzarella Cheese for supper, just as the 6 o’clock Local News was starting. We might see the Sun one day in the next Seven Days, with a mix of Flurries and Rain on the rest. We were also reminded to get out and Vote. There was a Fatal Collision last night just up the road from where we live.

We later watched “Matlock”, “Law and Order” and “The Pitt” for entertainment.

With an appointment tomorrow afternoon, we’ll be busy.
