Today, I received some important materials we'll need before our trip. We're counting down the days to go, and taking care of things that need taking care of between our two cruises. I have a co-op board meeting, lunch with two friends, and a dinner with Vicki scheduled. RQS will be coming up here this coming weekend, so that she can buy a new printer and have me deliver it, and her back to her place at the end of the weekend.
So, what did with most of my day? If you said "Relax", you'd be correct. I didn't get showered and dressed until 4 pm (or so), and took a drive up to Poughkeepsie. It was a nice day for a drive, and even the rush hour traffic wasn't too bad. Ending up at Aldi, I looked for things that would not need refrigeration, such as bread. But I noticed one item that interested me - a Bluetooth folding keyboard. For $10, it was worth a try. The darned thing works, but is not practical due to its size. It'll be nice to keep around when my main keyboard needs to be replaced, and the stores won't open for another few hours. Sometimes, toys can still be useful. Once done with Aldi, it was time to go food shopping at Trader Joe's. Today's food haul was a record expenditure for me at this store. I can't complain about the prices, but I can see the effects of inflation and the Snowflake's tariffs starting to kick in. $67 later, it was time to go home.
Once home, I couldn't get the food into the refrigerator quick enough - my GI Tract was acting up again. And soon enough, I was in for the night, and no longer in the mood to do laundry as I once planned.
