Well I think we will be at home for a while. I need to start a routine. I have a hunch that this might just take a little while to resolve it self. I intend to call at least one person a day to check in on them. Knitting is going well. Reorganization is going well, tomorrow I am sending 8 pounds of roving and fluff to a friend who needs project’s to do. Clearing clutter is going well too.
Tomorrow I will try Fry’s order in advance and call when you get to the parking lot service. The ordering was a bear and kept changing my order and adding things that I did not want. The app needs to be more user friendly. I hope the delivery goes better.
I have decided to use the same mindset I used when Eric used to get sick. We will make it through. I have yarn and fluff. We are cooking 3 meals a day at home we can do this. Also. Have lots of plastic bags to put finished projects in.

A Hard Day
Today was a hard day. It was not hard because I vacuumed half of the house in a round about fashion. Not because I did my chores in 10 minute spurts every hour. It was hard because I was running out of things I can only get at Fry’s supermarket. I had a very hard time walking through the front door.
I have not been to Fry’s since a few days before Eric died. We just don’t seem to go through things as fast anymore. Some things we no longer use at all. Things like Tide, a small bottle lasted a week and a large bottle maybe two and a half weeks at best. I opened a large bottle of Tide in the last week of December and it still has detergent in it. Plus we have at least 2 spare bottles.
It was hard because I had to walk by the Huggies Wipes to get to the toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags. By the way we are using less of these things too. To get my over the counter stuff, I had to walk by the Mucinex liquid , Liquid Tylenol, Head and Shoulders shampoo , and other things Eric used on a regular basis. My hand wanted to automatically put these things in my cart. I had been buying them for so many years. I had to stop myself. Eric does not need these anymore. Not very surprising was that my bill at check out was about 50% less.
I will not change markets because I like my Fry’s. It is just down the street. I know it is one of the smaller ones in town, which means a little less selection. I think it is worth it not to drive 20 or 30 minutes to go shopping. I like the nice family atmosphere too. The employees are great. So maybe next time will not be as hard. I will wait and see.
