Yesterday was cool and windy with a high of 23C. This morning it is windy and 22C. Today will be windy with rain this afternoon. The high will get to 23C.
I am fighting a cold so am feeling dull and tired. I think I am getting the upper hand but I could be wrong. Daughter-in-law has it and it has settled into her chest.
We had to shop yesterday and after much discussion we chose to walk to the shop 3 blocks from the apartment. We took the granny cart and off we went. The shop was busy as it was almost noon and people were picking up lunch from the prepared food area. We walked around the store and got what we needed. We also did some snoop shopping. I bought sugar free mix to take home for summer. They are very good.
I like the orange mango flavoured one the best but the orange ones are also good. I will buy the apple flavoured ones the next time we shop.I bought these for grandson as he really likes them. They go in his stocking.
I had a small taste and they are like a Reese's peanut butter cup but less sweet (still too sweet for me). I will buy more of them so I can give them to him for his birthday in February and put some in daughter-in-law's stocking.As we were walking to the grocery store, I noticed that more shrubs are coming into bloom. I saw two which will have red and orange flowers out in a couple of days. On our walk home, I saw another shrub that was coming out into bloom and I think it is magnolia. They do grow down here. I will be looking at that bush again to see if I am right.
I had a nap yesterday afternoon to see if it would help the cold and went to bed fairly early. I am hoping that it will help me beat the cold though I am certain it will hit me hard no matter what.
Today we are going to the lavadero which will do some laundry for us. They wash, dry, and fold it and we will pick it up tomorrow. From there we will walk to a fabric store and I will see what they have. I would like to get a couple of pieces of fabric. Once home, I will do a few things in the apartment and try to knit some on the socks. I have the leg half done and would like to finish the sock before we leave.
Until the next time................................................................
