Even though we tried again last night to take something we thought would help us to sleep better we were not successful. Kathy still had a problem falling asleep while I just could not stay asleep. We even slept with the Windowwide open but it didn’t help.

I had things ready for breakfast and had started my morning reading on my Computerwhen Kathy finally joined me. After enjoying Jamon Toastwe took our Morning Brews to the Computers. By 10:00 I started my morning chores before getting ready for thelargerchore of doing the Doucettesbut there was a problem. The last time I filled them I forgot to update my Spreadsheetand there were a couple of VitaminBottlesthat were nearly empty. Since I fill Forty-Five Days of Doucettesat a time that meant I had to start counting some Vitaminsto be sure there would be enough for today.

It was 11:30 when I found onlyTwo Vitaminsthat needed to be picked up. It was also the same time that Taira from VitalAire called to say my replacement CPAP Machine had arrived for me to pick up. It was hard to believe that the Motorwas starting to fail after not even a Year of use while myold one that I am presently using worked for Eight Years with no problem. The old saying, “They don’t make them the way the used to” definitely applies to this.

We had Italian Wedding Soup for lunch along with Cookies, an Orangeand Chocolate Pudding Cup for dessert.

We haven't even passed our Canadian Thanksgiving
and Christmas decorations are out.

Kathy had been taking stock earlier so by 12:30 we were on our way out the door.. Taking a route that was clear the other day turned into a Construction Bottlenecktoday.

It was just before 1:00 we arrived at VitalAirewho shares the Red Cross Buildingwith the Canadian Blood Donor Services. It was a matter of knocking on the door and after Taira saw it was me returned minutes later with my New CPAP Machine.

We swung by Guardian Storagewhere we surprisingly found quite a bit of Mailin our Box. One happened to be the Refund Cheque for when Mary from Healthy Healsstopped over on the Eighthof this month. That added a stop at Motor City Community Credit Unionto cash it so Kathy will have the money for Mary’s next visit.

When we left the Credit Union we drove to over to Dollaramawhere we started reducing the size of our Grocery List. It still amazes me that the same articles we buy hereare double or more in price at the grocery store.

Even tough we saved money there we still needed to go to Zehr’sgrocery store to pick up Produceand Frozen Foods. Walking down the Paper Products aisle to get some Kleenexwe were looking at thenear empty shelves similar to this past March. Kathy reminded me that our Prime Minister in last night’s speech had said we were already into the Second Waveof the Coronavirus. That probably sent the Panic Buyers out in droves. Soup Prices had almostdoubled in nearly Two Weeks so we left it there. We left quite a few $$$$behind for less then we typically get.

We drove over to Walmart to see if they had better prices on Soup. They did so we doubled the amount we had originally thought to buy but if our area is like it was in March Soupwill be hard to find.

There was another stop at Shoppers Drug Mart to pick up the Vitamin Pills we were short on. They were both “On Sale” but since this was Thursday and I’m a SeniorI saved an additional Twenty Percent on my entire purchase.

Trees are starting to change colour.

Back at the building I loaded the largest Shopping Cart there was with all our purchases. Kathy couldn’t believe I made it all fit in one load. In the Apartmentwhile Kathy put the Frozen Foods away I returned the Cartdownstairs. We then worked together to make it all disappear into the appropriate storage spots.

It was just past 4:30 but we cooked up a Store Bought Thin Crust Parisian Pizzafor supper. It had Chicken, Mushroomsand Spinachmaking it very tasty. We also topped it off with a glass of Carbonated Juice(Fake Wine) just like we’ve done at some restaurants years ago.

We worked together cleaning up the Dishes. We don’t have nor do we want a ~~Dishwasher~~because theyuse more energy and waste resources (Timeand Water) but Kathy could not understand how I wasn’t burning my Hands while scrubbing the dishes when were steaming when I put them in the drying rack.

While I worked at filling our Pill Doucettes I listened while Kathy watched our 6 o’clock Local News. Not much changed but we are liking the weather in the forecast.

As I continued working on the DoucettesKathy did some rearranging in the kitchen. We did fill it up today.

Once the Doucettes were filled I managed to count the remaining Vitaminsand Pillsbefore updating our Spreadsheet. Listening to the USNews Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro talked about Ballotsfound in the Trash. There wereSeven Votes for President Trumpthat got a lot of people all up in arms saying the Voting by Mail isrigged. The A. G.Said those Ballotswere from the Primary Electionsand not for the Presidential Voteitself. Someone had not properly disposed of them.
