Errand Day

I was quiet yesterday because it was errand day in Baton Rouge. We had to pick up insulin at my husband's doctor's office. He had one shot that did not release correctly and lost all the insulin. We got him all fixed up. We also had a couple more things to do and one was a no go. We wanted to close our safety deposit box but my key was not in my wallet where I have always kept it. I haven't been to that bank in a couple of years. So I need to find the key. I called and found out a replacement key is $20. But then she told me that they have to order them in pairs, so actually that would be $40. Same if I don't return the key when we close the box. So I have a mission to find the key! Hopefully it is in the bottom of my purse or the purse I used before this one. I hate cleaning out purses, (and wallets), but that is going to be done sometime this coming weekend. Next was stop at bank where my mom had an account. This is the one that did not have anyone else's name on it. I closed the one that I was also on t he account with no problem. At least we have the ball rolling here. I will have to go by the attorney's office at some point though. I am waiting for a review of account and they will let me know what else they need in order to proceed. So 1 out of 3 isn't too good, but we do have a start on one so I'll call it even at 1.5 out of 3! We headed to Olive Garden for an early dinner and enjoyed our meal. Always nice when you don't have to wash dishes!! We brought home enough for another meal thanks to endless salad! What did you have for dinner yesterday? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

At least you took care of important matters. We are busy gobbling up all our food in the freezer and fridge before we head back to CT. As we speak, hubs is making me dinner tonight. Yay for a change!

@kareng It’s so nice when a husband cares enough to help out. We’re lucky to have them.

I haven't been to Baton Rouge for about 55 years. I wonder if it's changed any. I hate losing keys. What a hassle.

It has changed a lot. Traffic snarls everywhere. They can't seem to figure out how to solve the congestion on the interstate, especially coming off the MS River Bridge. And lots of crime now. I am glad we moved away from that area.

@celticeagle They don't! They have two Mississippi River bridges. The original was upgraded to four lanes but that was still insufficient. So they built a new bridge going across in downtown area. It only has 6 lanes. It was outgrown basically before it was finished building!

@kareng .......They don't seem to figure growth in their development of bridges and highways. Crime is lower in some areas around the country. Too bad something isn't about it there.

I hate losing things like that. Last night I had leftovers based on oat groats and ice cream for dessert.

I think ice cream weather is quickly approaching here! Highs of 85 to 87 here this week.

@kareng Whoa on that heat. Yesterday we had our last day of 70's and sunshine. Now we're in for about 10 days of clouds, rain and the mid 50's.

I hope the key is in your purse. It seems everything you lose ends up in the bottomless bottom of your purse. Olive Garden is a good way to end the day and bringing home enough for another meal is a win.

I usually don't totally clean out a purse when I switch either, so it could very well be in my old purse wherever I stashed it! Yes!!

Good lucky finding that key, I know that it is expensive to replace them. At least you enjoyed a nice meal and no dish washing.
