When I got up this morning there were no plans for the day – it felt like a day off. I worked on a Farmer’s Daughter block while I had my morning coffee. I came upstairs to check my mail and Facebook and decided today would be a good day to get my hair cut – having it shorter for the retreat weekend would be nice. After a soak in the tub and a bit of time reading my book I went back to my hand stitching. The end is in sight and I’m so ready to be done with it.

My hair appointment was right after lunch and I picked the salon based on its location – close to the Library and the grocery store. I’ve been there before but I had a different stylist this time; same cut as usual though. After my appointment I walked to the Library to pick up a book I had on order. When I went to check out I couldn’t find my card and their computers were down so they couldn’t look it up. I took a bunch of cards out of my wallet when I was travelling and I guess (I hope) I didn’t put them back in. I’ll have to go back tomorrow to pick up the book.

On my way back to the grocery store I passed by a new-to-me pharmacy. I’ve been getting really bad leg and foot cramps and a nurse I know suggested I might be low on potassium. I know that bananas have potassium (they are about #6 on the list I looked at) but when I looked up other foods there are some that I eat regularly and some I never eat. So I stopped and got ten days worth of potassium tablets; hopefully they will help. Next stop was for a few groceries for the house here and a few things to take over to the Retreat, but it was a quick trip.

I’ll get back to my hand stitching for the rest of the afternoon. I think I can finish my knitting project tonight.
