03-16-22 Deals and fun
Today was another productive and focused day. I cut out at 2:30 when I got a message that my new glasses were in and I was to pick Emmy up at 3. Unfortunately the left lens has the focal point in the wrong spot and I see double so they have to figure out what to do. From there I stopped at the new Cranbrook Urgent and Primary Care clinic and had a wonderful reception culminating in them taking me on for follow up care and telling me how to have my records transferred to them from the storage company where they have been since December. I will follow up tomorrow with the specialist to have all reports sent to them. It is such a relief!!! All the timing is perfect.
Next I picked up Emmy and we went to Cranbrook Photo to get the Stitch and Grogu Diamond print framed for her and Gwen to hang in their game room. It isn’t cheap but I am happy Danika liked it enough to have. We went to Walmart next where she was told she could pick things for her birthday and I had a $30 amount in my head which is what I had done for Sawyer. We started in the clothes section, through the snacks and ended in toys. When all was rung in she got a shirt, pants, birthday cake Oreos, rainbow goldfish crackers, a Barbie dress, two wee Barbie lego characters and a Ryan mystery toy all for 30.81. When we got to her grandmas to drop her off she opened the toy and it was Locomotive Ryan which was so cool as we had seen a train going by and I was explaining why I loved trains so much and that I used to work on them (in case you don’t know, I was the first female Trainman/Yardman in the Kootenays, back in the late ‘80s). She was so excited she ran in the house to share her excitement.
I did find a great deal for myself. I wanted a new winter coat but was too fat for an extra large so I didn’t bother getting one. There was a clearance rack and the last red one left was an XL and it was the one I wanted marked down to $29!! Even if it is too big next year I can just wear layers easily under it. I am so thrilled by that deal. And am over 26 pounds down now.
When I got home I went for a good walk with my Neighbour and then made one of my Hello Fresh meals of chicken and Dijon sauce. It was so good and low calorie, win-win. The rest of the evening was spent watching my shows and puzzling. This puzzle is really big.
