I was up early to make it to the grocery store in their senior’s time period. I didn’t want to go too early though as I wanted to go to the post office before I came home.

I picked up a few groceries for Thanksgiving – turkey breast, stuffing mix, and pumpkin pie filling and pie crusts. I forgot the whipped cream but Pat will be back this week and can pick it up and take it over when he goes back to the studio. I thought I was just in time for the post office but when I got through the lobby they hadn’t actually opened yet. I was first in line and in and out very quickly.

When I came home my next task was to get things organized for the Hall meeting tonight. I had most of it prepared but I needed to gather a few papers and get them ready to go. I’m finding that not having the secretarial task makes meeting prep much easier.

I had a couple of things to take down to the shed and when I opened the shed door to put them away I noticed the lawn mower. I got it out and did two rounds of the yard. I didn’t do the boulevard as it has looked like rain off and on all day and any excuse works for me!

I have all my fabric ready for a sew-along Stacia, Deloise and I are doing later in the week. I even purchased my quilting treats at the store this morning. I dug out fabric for my October UFO project; I’m going to have Pat take it across to the studio so it will be waiting for me when I go over.

I finished the virtual Irish tour this afternoon. This tour was interesting but not nearly as good as the Amalfi Coast was. I’m a little tentative about watching the Paris tour as I expect there will be a lot in it that we didn’t see and I will be jealous.

While meandering through the web this morning I sorted out a Christmas gift. Finding presents is going to be harder than ever this year.
