Friday Doings

The first task of the day was to finalize the grocery list and then head to Kroger. Donna and I decided that we are oretty much on the same schedule. We walked in Kroger's doors at exactly the same moment. We, of course, had to visit and catch up! After all we hadn't seen each other since Tuesday! I hadn't been to the store in two weeks, but still didn't need a lot, as I am determined that I will continue to use what's in the freezer. For supper this evening, I made chicken salad with a 2-cup package of cooked cut up chicken from the freezer. Tasted good. I have Sweet 'n Sour Pork thawing in the refrigerator for anotheer meal this weekend. I have spent quite a bit of time on the phone this afternoon...catching up with some and making plans with others. I've also been straightening up around the house. Melany, Wade, and Erin plan to come for a visit tomorrow. They plan to come after lunch. I am a little farther along on the Christmas ornament than I was last night...closing in on a finish. Not sure that I will get it finished today as I have a couple of other things to do around the house before I go to bed tonight. Tomorrow is another Cottey College Alum Bookclub Zoom meeting. I have that book finished. This Zoom discussion is supposed to be lead by my childhood friend, Randi. It will be good to spend the time with her and the rest of the group. I read the book some time ago, so I have looked up a summary of the book on the internet to refresh my memory! I have actually read the book twice. The first time was during Covid. I was intrigued by the title, The House on Mango Street. The reason that it caught my attention is that We lived on Mango Ave. when we lived in Sunnyvale, CA back in the early 70s. I will say that it wasn't my favorite read back five years ago and when I reread it for the group, it is still not very high on my list...perhaps the reason that I haven't kept details in my mind! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
