We got up late this morning...around 8:30 a.m. I hopped on the treadmill right after breakfast for 30 minutes of treading, followed by a five-minute cool-down and some strength exercises with an elastic band.
About 10:30, Mother came over, and we made a week's menu, and began planning meals for a trip to Branson at the end of the month.
Mother commented that she needed a fall jacket and some other clothing items for the trip, so after lunch, we went shopping. She found a quilted black jacket at one of the stores that has a sale every weekend, and denim jeans, three knit long-sleeve shirts, and a couple of packages of crew socks at the other store that has a sale every weekend. She was able to apply a $10 discount at this store, since she had the required $50 in purchases.
After we got back home, I made a batch of bran muffins to have with corn chowder for supper.
I recorded our favorite college team's football game on the DVR, and Hubbie and I sat down to watch as the opposing team romped over our team. Because our team is young and inexperienced, we expected to lose, but not by such a wide margin, and not from so many embarrassing turnovers.
I was pleased to get a phone call from a niece who lives up north. We chatted for a long time, and agreed that she needs to make a trip south for a visit. She has never been in this part of the U.S., though her dad (my brother) and mom have come south a few times, and we visited up north a few years ago. This niece has never met her many southern cousins, and is curious about them, naturally.
