Diaries

A lovely, rainy day with temperatures in the upper 30’s. Well over an inch so far. We are very dry with wild fires in several nearby NC and VA counties.

I went to the gym then stopped at the library to return and pick up books. Made a quick stop at the grocery store and found the lettuce I like they were out of yesterday.

More Christmas prep stuff to work on this afternoon.

Mostly cloudy today with highs in the low 50’s and wind 10 to 15 mph winds.

Gym and grocery store then back home. Busier than usual for a Monday with folks shopping for their Thanksgiving foods. I picked up milk and a few other things but they were out of my lettuce. I may stop by again tomorrow while in town to see if some came in.

I have some odds and ends to do in the house today in preparation for pulling out the Christmas decorations next week.

Sunny today with brisk winds and temperatures in the mid 50’s.

Busy day at the store. Lots of shoppers and several big donations to work on in between customers. We almost broke the $200.00 ceiling so a good day all around. We also have a donation jar on the desk. We took in  lot in donations today as well as in sales.

Sunny and mild today with highs in the mid 50’s. We need rain. Most of our area us under a burning ban and not much of the way of rain in sight.

Slow day in sales at the store but I had a 15 box donation that took most of the day to process. Joyce left early for a meeting so I held down the fort until closing.

Sunny and mild today with highs in the low 50’s and breezy.

We were busy all day at the store.  Locals as well as tourist and regulars who come in whenever they are in town. Broke the $300.00 ceiling. Thankfully, only had a few very nice small donations come in, since were busy selling books. Hardly managed to get a time out to eat some lunch.

Sunny, breezy, and warm today with highs in the low 70’s.

Went to the gym then stopped by the library to pick up some books. From there I drove over to Galax, VA to Wal-Mart to do some shopping. I picked up some more stuff for the pantry as well as some other odds and ends. We are donating toiletries to the local Food Bank for our Friends of the Library Christmas project this year. Yes, it’s a Food Pantry but they get requests for those non food items that people often forget are in need. I picked up some of that stuff as well as my gift for the Christmas party.

Came home, showered, fixed lunch, and then unloaded and put away all the stuff.
