Thursday Night Shopping

This is something that I avoid, one because its busy and two because I do have other times when I can shop.

Tonight I went out as I wanted to find something in particular; I could have waited but at times I am not a patient person so I drove to the shopping centre. I did ask Warren if he wanted to come too, the look on his face said it all. I told him that he didn't need to come, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Last night we had a storm and it rained this afternoon and this evening and because of that, it was so dark, no moon or stars out.

I wanted to check out the new craze of adult colouring and I had heard that KMart had some books on special. Yep they did, so I limited myself to one (I did pick up a couple of others but no, one was enough to start). I haven't done anything with it yet except to flick through some pages, I got a patterns book which should give me more options regarding colours.

I will do a post later once I have completed one or two, it is supposed to be very therapeutic.

Christmas shopping!

I try to avoid the shops a the this time of the year but I did have one gift to post so toodled off early yesterday,phew not early enough. There was a line up at the post office that went out the door. Luckily they had some-one who was helping to use the self service booth and as I only had one thing to do, she took me over there and did that for me. Jumped about five people in the queue.

Had a few other things to do to finish Christmas shopping, in all I visited five places and it took me two hours  any other time of the year, it would have been 30 minutes.

Actually the bank took the longest, I just wanted some information and was expecting to be able to pick up a brochure but they were in crisis as the terminals were down and there were lots of staff helping people to use the ATM's and laptops inside the bank to assess accounts on-line. I didn't realise that the info I wanted was on-line. Cant remember the last time  I went into that bank, as i use ATMs

Wrapped Chrissy presents yesterday and thankfully it is all done except for food shopping.
