I made it to the secret shop with about 20 seconds to spare and then the shop took just under two hours. Ideally, it would have taken 40 min. So that was longer than expected.
But then we get to the real trying part of my day. I went to Jewel at 6pm on a Friday. That's just crazy. The worst time to go! Busy and all the carts were wet because it was raining. Wait, there is more. Then Jewel was sold out of all the really good 3-day specials that were the basis of my grocery list and the whole point of going to Jewel over Aldi.
Nevertheless, I persisted. I was home by 8pm. Long day. I would have skipped the grocery store if not for the looming "Winter Storm Warning." I was freaking exhausted. The fact that I don't like the family to put away the groceries because they don't know how to do it the right way really worked against me. I plan to spend the weekend recovering from my very long but not bad Friday.
In all honesty, it's a delight to complain about simple things like a lack of $1.99 ground turkey.
5 radiation treatments down, 20 to go. The universe smiled upon me this morning when I was greeted by 5 crocus buds about to blossom.
