I woke up about 6:30 because of a loud thunderstorm. I couldn't go back to sleep, so I played games until about 8. Then it was get up for pet stuff and breakfast. After breakfast I moved the car to behind the truck. I also looked in the apartment for the TV stand, but didn't find it.
The delivery guys from Costco got here a little after 9. It didn't take them long at all to move the TV next to the pinball machines. The TV is huge and heavy. I didn't bother to open it up because there's mo way the two of us are going to unbox the thing. Instead we left.
Our first stop was the post office. The second stop was a nearby estate sale. There was something there I wanted to buy, but it was already sold. We did get some spare wine glasses and a couple of wine books for presents. The next stop was the new HEB. We bought a little less than $200 of groceries including a ham and a turkey. When we got back outside it was raining cats and dogs.
After that we went to the Belterra Tomlinson's. We got some cat food and treats. They had some people wrapping presents there for donations, so we had them wrap the books. The final stops were ACE for BBQ rub and Torchy's for lunch.
When we got back I called the gun dealer. I'd pretty much decided to buy the gun. What sealed the deal was that they gave me 10% off MSRP and no sales tax. That saves over $2,000. I asked for pictures of the gun. Later that day after I'd seen the pictures I texted them saying I'd take the gun.
The rest of the day was surfing, a few videos, and lots of TV. Ellen fixed a frozen chicken dish we got at Trader Joe's. It was pretty good.
