Wednesday 11-29 Doing Errands

Running Errands

What a beautiful day!!! We woke to sunshine with the temperature in the mid 40's and it ended up getting to 68 degrees. The wind blew all day.

We started the day by walking the trail along Nolan Creek. It was cool considering I was in a short sleeve top, Larry offered me his jacket from the car, I told him I was fine. Usually, when we go for a walk it warms up considering we're moving. We walked for forty-five minutes. 

After our walk we did a few errands. First up was to pay for the tags for the truck at the Bell County Appraisal Office. The second errand was grocery shopping at HEB. The third was get our mail at the UPS Store.

Grocery Shopping

The other day when we were watching the GizWiz, Chad was doing a segment where he tries different inexpensive products to see if they work or not. The product he played with was a Mini Waffle Maker. You can buy them at Bed Bath & Beyond for $9.99. Yesterday we stopped by and bought one. When we got home we made mini waffles for lunch, it worked excellent. One neat thing about the Mini Waffle Maker is that it is so small that it fits anywhere, we can even take it with us in the RV. We have a Belgium waffle maker that we love, it makes perfect waffles every time but as the years have gone by we find that we eat less so now when we make waffles we only make one and we share it. By using the Mini Waffle Maker the waffle is small and we don't have to share it.

Today while we were grocery shopping HEB had a coupon for Campbell's soups, if you bought two Chunky soups you get a free new Chunky Maxx soup. You can chose from different kinds and Larry decided on the Bison Bacon Burger with carrots and potatoes. That's what we had for lunch. It was ok but it wasn't any better than the other soups and it certainly wouldn't be worth the extra money.

After lunch Larry started to wax the Minnie. Before doing so he scrubbed off the dead bugs and rinsed off the dust. When Larry waxes the Minnie he uses his small buffer. He did the back and front of the Minnie before calling it a day.

In the evening we went to Shirts 'n' Skirts to attend their Fall Frenzy Dance. They had Dale Smith as their caller. We hadn't danced to Dale in a long time and we had fun. Lucy and Jerry Pate cued the round dancing. There were six squares and a lot of round dancers. Dale called six tips and two of them were plus. We had a very nice evening of dancing with friends. LIFE IS GOOD!!!!
