Anyone else doing some grocery shopping this morning?

It's gloomy and cool out today. But I'm on a mission, so I'm not going to let it get me down. It appears that the sun did not explode, and that Orange Kitty did not eat Kitty. Kitty is asleep on my bed. It's her new favorite spot. Before I head to Guitar Center for a couple of hours, I'm going to hit Safeway for some groceries. Let's see. I need bacon, eggs, cranberry juice, leeks, white onion, some ramen, and some wine. I have milk and coffee. What are your plans for this gloomy and cool Saturday?

I went for groceries today. I try to get 2 weeks worth and spend about $200 in total. I'm glad that we have beef, fish and chicken in the freezer, as everything else added up enough as it was. Super cold here this morning at only -14C, that is darned cold.

@marlina 23 C? That's low to mid 70s F, I think. When I lived in Seattle, we kept our houses cool ( maybe 19 or 20 C) and wore sweaters.

Its kind of gloomy here too. Mountains are hidden from kind of ugly looking haze. Some will probably burn off but seems to be a whole day thing. My sister went shopping for us the other day said many aisles were bare but that is the Ghetto Stater Brothers on our side of the town. I told her if she went to other one across town, I bet they fully stocked where people more well off. She also said Chicken was like 26 dollars a pound. I go that is crazy we could get like 3 live ones for that price. Times are crazy Have fun at guitar center.

@TheHorse No, it was just kind of a fill in trip not like major grocery shopping. She usually goes to Albertsons for that mixed with Smart and Final.

Went yesterday shopping for my oj, watercress salad, a few slices of pastrami from the deli and Bumble bee tuna in oil. We had gloomy weather recently, now only 17% drought & a few landslides Statewide and farmers got what they needed, dryer weather now. Glad we're not letting the weather get to us!

@TheHorse I usually go at Aldi at 7 in the morning. This morning I go first with my husband to see his doctor for blood works, I will be at Aldi around 9 am, not the best, but I only need a couple of things.

I was up until 10 am this morning, slept four hours and am playing on myLot right now. I plan on going back to sleep for a while when I can't keep my eyes open... (Pretty is getting the pasta bake ready to go in the oven. This evening I'll cook the bok choy and beef dish.) I hope you have a good day.

I did a big grocery pickup at two different places, got Wendy's for lunch and came home and put it all away. Hopefully this will be enough for a few weeks. Hope your day is going well. Kitty sounds like she's comfy on your bed

@JudyEv I was thinking of trying to retrieve my old hacked account again today. But so far it's just been spitting in the wind. Facebook rakes in the bucks while providing little or no customer service for its victims...I mean...users.

Good mornnig, I did a little shopping last night for mainly water, but ended up with extra in my buggy as usual (lol). I grabbed some cereal, milk, yogurt, treats, chips. I have everything else at home. Today I think I will just chill, clean up and look for ways to make money.

I visited with a few of my neighbors, talked on the phone with a friend, ordered kitty litter for Henry and Squiggy (not to be mistaken for the ghost of David Lander. This Squiggy is my neighbor's cat), and $100.00 worth of coffee for myself. Now, I am doing a bit of myLotting before going back to work a bit more on the placemats I am making to give as a gift this Christmas. Yes, I start my Christmas shopping early.
