My second day into the pool. In some ways it was easier today, in other ways it was harder. My natural inclination to push is overcoming my wanting to take it easy until I get my pool legs and wind back. No, I am not counting laps, or half laps. I am simply doing what I can do. Then again maybe this time I am simply in better shape than when I started last time. That might explain why I am not hurting too much, or suffering other problems? Ritalin covered for me last time, but it hurt, hard. This time is just going well. Though I might have pushed really hard last time too? I can't remember, exactly. I am still having problems with the lockers. I might just have to rent a keyed one. I did ask about their towels. After being assured I was just fine, I am going to begin using theirs. I will take mine, just in case, but that should ease my concerns and troubles just a bit. It all helps.
After the swim, I headed in to get the paint. A quart was as little as they could mix, which was just fine. While waiting for them to do the mixing I wandered the store. I knew there were little things I wanted or needed. I even remembered something I had thought to gift my friend. I needed several door limiters. I found two that might do. One is the spring rod type, the other goes on the door hinge. Hmm... As I look at the door... I think it will have to be the spring bar. My door HAS one of the others attached. Then again, maybe it could be adjusted. If not, oh well. :p For my friend I purchased a drill like bit piece for the Dremel he bought. I have one, of each, and really like the auto-chuck.
After that store I ended up at the gourmet supply store, for butter keepers. I have been looking at them for a long time, and knew the two I wanted were on Amazon. As it turns out they had this and this one, the two I had on my wish list. One was cheaper, the other more expensive, but there was no shipping and returns if needed are much easier. Plus, I prefer to shop locally, I just won't be robbed to do it. If I had remembered them in time I would have looked at their eggbeaters. I ordered one through Amazon already. If I don't like the one I get I may end up back at that store for one of those too. Next a stop at my favored grocery store. Milk, sour cream, more of the easier to use (and better) Amish butter (same price or less than my regular butter, you just have to buy more at once). That will go right into the butter crock. Yeah, I'm going old school, hard.
My friend called, just as I was leaving the gym. He asked if I was in town, and if so if I was coming over. I told him I planned to come by Friday, that I had things I needed to do today. Oh, okay. Ever feel like you kicked a puppy? I had no choice though. I just better damn well make it Friday! And, I think I will. Tomorrow? Business. I am going to call about resetting or fixing the one bank internet page. I am also going to call about my mortgage. I may also take care of some very old business. As well, I am going to try to call my brother, again. The lad must be busy! Well, and I will read.
Yet tonight I hope to finish up a few dishes and begin thawing meat. Spaghetti and meat sauce sounds good. So does a roast and some steak. Meat, meat, and more meat. I AM getting hungry. For meat. I'll try to put some other stuff in there with it, but no promises. YUM!
Later.
Actually both butter keepers where cheaper, locally, by about $2 per. That is truly odd. Amazon used to be one of the cheapest places to buy things...
