Day 1604

We got up at 8 today.  I'd wanted to get up at 7, but I hadn't set an alarm.  We did the pet stuff and then left for Central Market.  We got there about 8:40.  There was a line.  We decided to wait.  It took about 15 minutes to get in.

We bought just about everything we wanted.  They even had yeast.  Yuppies don't bake.  Unfortunately it isn't a great store for everyday food, so we didn't get everything we wanted.

The next stop was Grainger.  They don't even let anyone into the store.  Instead you are supposed to order and pay for stuff online (I did).  Then you hand them the confirmation and they go get it for you.

We stopped at Randall's for some more groceries.  We bought all the stuff - bakery, drinks, cereal, etc. that we couldn't get at Central Market.  The last stop was the post office.

I didn't feel like working on the drill press when we got home.  So I didn't.  Instead I read.  At one point a squirrel attacked the bird feeder.  He's aggressive and I've tried several times to sneak up on him.  He runs away as soon as I get around the corner.  So I decided on a different approach.  I'm going to shoot him from behind the big tree by the parking area.  I set up the step stool for a rest.  I also broke branches to give me a small hole through the foliage.  Next time he comes, I'm ready for him.

I continued reading for the rest of the afternoon.  Ellen fixed her version of frito pie for dinner.  She used chicken and rice without cheese.  It was pretty good, but it wasn't the real thing.

After dinner was more reading mixed in with some TV and surfing.
