Yesterday I walked the dogs when i thought the rain had finally stopped. It didn't. I got caught in it near the end, but it wasn't bad.
I went grocery shopping....alone.
I HATE grocery shopping alone because I'm awful at it. Managing the list and finding it on the aisle is too much, too much I tell you!
I loaded the groceries in the now pouring rain. Lucky for me I now drive John's big blue truck that doesn't allow you to get out of the car without rolling down the windows & lifting the handle from the outside of the car door. It also has windshield wipers that work as well as my hand. Driving home was oh so fun since the main road I live off doesn't believe in street lights! People that live off country roads need to see too!
Then I got to pull into my lovely garage & easily unload the groceries, right? wrong. Our garage door opener for the truck doesn't work. Not that we've cleared a space for a car to fit in the garage anyway. I fumble around for the keys in the dark. I think I can go upstairs without any lights to let the dogs out & find myself flat on my face while going up the stairs...wet shoes & wood don't mix.
I unload the groceries...still in the rain...to find Christmas tree needles all over the bottoms of the bags b/c John took our trees last weekend to the recycle center & it hasn't been swept clean. I now know why they call them "needles" b/c when those bad boys dry out they could literally make you bleed!
I finally had some soup for dinner a little after 8 when John got home & all was better soon after that.
Bring on Thursday...

I'm beginning to realize how different we are! Dear heavens, I think It would drive me nuts if someone went grocery shopping with me!! baahahaha..... I did do it wih Shawn in the nastyNash but that's been a loooong time ago. Now for the rest of your adventure, it would have been nice to have some moral support throughout that!!
