Volume 16 - Day 356/10, 2024 - Saturday

It was 34 degrees outside when I got up this morning, and when I left for our walk it was 32.7 degrees. The morning glories look like they made it, so that 7/10 of a degree was all they needed, I guess. We had a good walk, and I am the guy that generally gives treats to the dogs we pass along the way. The only dog we passed this morning was this one, but it wasn't too interested in the treat. I do not take rejection well, but I was able to complete the walk. After breakfast, the girls and I went down for a nice nap, and then I got up and did a few things in the garage, and followed through with my decision to do a little shopping. I went to the At Home store in Cedar Park, and bought nothing. Then I went to Target, where I bought dog treats, some candles and a couple books (gifts for Wells). The candles were shown as 'buy one get one at half price,' as were the two books. At 'self-checkout' the discounts were not applied, and it was explained that the offer was for the customers in the Target club, whatever that is. Whatever it i, I am now a member, and all I need is more emails. Ugh. Okay, then I stopped at HEB before going home, and got ice cream, milk and something else, but I don't remember what it was. I was looking for pre-made mixes for the bread maker I got through a TREPAC auction, but I could not find any. I can find it on Amazon, but it looks kind of complicated. Even so, I expect I will buy it after I finish this journal entry. Tomorrow is shaping up to be a quiet day, and that is perfectly okay with me. I will do some straightening up in the garage. I take great comfort in straightening up the garage, and I don't understand how I always seen to un-straighten it over the course of a couple weeks. Whatever.
