A Bit of a Stock Up and a Bit of Shopping, Weird Weather

The Ridge

On Friday, Aug. 26^th, Bill woke up with an upset system, to put it mildly. He took Gibbs out after 6 and spent a fair bit of time in the bathroom until it passed. 😊 It was fortunate for him that Billy said they didn’t have work for the day. He wasn’t down for long and it eased. I had to go clean the Mat so did that, with only one customer coming in as I was leaving.

Back home, we discussed our day and decided that I would drive to Hanover for a few food items rather than all of us driving to Owen Sound. Bill needed to just relax for the morning. I finished my tea and left around 10:30. At a stoplight in Hanover, it was funny to first hear and then notice Jamie right beside me. No time to chat, the light turned green. 😉

Gibbs slept while I worked on the puzzle

Look closer, he has his
rope in his mouth
A little goof, he is. 💗

I popped into Giant Tiger, Dollarama and finished up at Walmart, coming out with all items on my list today. I was in no hurry so when I saw it was noon, I texted Bill to go ahead and eat if he was hungry. By the time I got home, he and Gibbs were inside the Suite waiting for me. Bill took care of recording the receipts from my purchases on Quicken and then we had something to eat. He’d waited for me. ♥

than colours

The day was a strange one. Only 20C/68F today, which isn’t a bed temperature when the sun is out but it was mostly overcast and looming chances of rain. Not a day to count on doing outdoor things. 😊 As it turned out, Bill felt good enough to go out and cut grass and Gibbs and I went to the Bunky for an hour or two. I lost track as I usually do with a puzzle.

Since we didn't make it to Keady Market
this summer, I found these
chair covers at Giant Tiger
for $6 each
A better price!
Here Gibbs models it for you

When Bill finished both fields, we came inside and he took the opportunity before supper to go to the Acreage and get a bladder full of water. We were just below half a tank. When he returned, it was time to start grilling the sausages for supper. The meat was good but the last two buns in the pack weren’t the freshest and fell apart. I was glad we had two pieces of pie for dessert, to top off the meal. No lunch to pack for Bill so he loaded the dishwasher for a quick run of 30 minutes and went to the Hangar.

The sausages and the pie were great

I worked on my blog post and called it a night after watching Beetlejuice. Such a fun movie. Gibbs wasted no time and disappeared upstairs onto the bed. It was only 8 o’clock! This was a good day and the weekend is upon us. Tomorrow will bring a bit more exciting things to report. I hope you have enjoyed your Friday!
