Shopping with Michele

 

Friday

I woke up early but fell asleep and stayed in bed until almost 8. Chris was already gone to work for some special project. I got up and did the usual, including practicing and having egg salad.

I ran out the door and stopped at the post office. No mail. I went to the chapel and unlocked it. The Clark's came in. Each kid had something to do. I took Jedidiah into the sanctuary to count chairs. He seems to be getting the idea. I helped the girls with their math. Then Moira and Wilhelm played the multiplication game. Moira won. They all packed up and headed out to the car.

I packed up and went home to hydrate. I took some boxes to 111. I cleaned in the kitchen and went through one box, picking out some glass containers for leftovers. John was supposed to meet me there but I never heard from him (turns out my phone was still turned off for the night).

When I got home, I ate fiber gel and read outside. Then I made and ate breakfast. I checked e-mail. I called Michele and found out my phone had been on airplane mode. She said she was ready to go anytime. So I put together my list and drove over there. I handed John his payment for 628. Then we got in my car with her driving. However, we noticed one of my tires was low on air, after just topping them off last week. So she decided to take her car instead.

We talked as she drove us to Tooele. We shopped at Luckey's, Melanie's and Maceys, then went back to base. We stopped at the commissary too. Then she went home and helped me carry my stuff to my car. I drove home fro her house. I brought the bags in and then Chris came home. He had stuff from the commissary as well. We put the food away.

He made his supper and mine. I read e-mail, then ate. He said he wasn't feeling well so canceled his game. I worked on my blog and got ready for game night.

Michelle wasn't there when I arrived. Casey said she was spending the night in town. I signed into the game and it worked like it was supposed to. No abnormal endings. I did everything I could think of to do and made some progress. But about 10, I started spinning my wheels. Casey and I talked about making gluten-free bread.

At 11, I thanked him and went home. Chris was still up. But we both retired for the night.
