Monday, March 30

We slept late this morning, of course. But after a hot cereal breakfast, I got on the treadmill. I needed a workout, since I hadn't exercised in several days.

Mother came over later in the morning, and we planned the week's menu. Then I called my cardiologist's office to get my prescriptions renewed, and Hubbie called the camper repair place in another town, but the lady who schedules work orders was out today, so he'll need to try again tomorrow. We didn't accomplish much else for the rest of the morning.

After lunch, Mother and I went for a walk at the college lake. But it was windy enough to make it uncomfortable for Mother, so we only strolled once around the lake before returning home.

After that, Hubbie and I ran shopping errands...to the greeting card shop for an Easter card for Mother; to the candy store to pick up bags of Jelly Belly jelly beans for Mother for Easter; to the health store for a box of no-salt seasoning and a couple of bags of sodium-free puffed cereals (rice and corn) and then to the WDCS for groceries and incidentals. I tried to get butterscotch disks for Mother at the WDCS, but there weren't any. So we stopped by a couple of other discount stores and found bags of them at one of them. They aren't the name brand Mother prefers, but I hope they're a good substitute.

Supper tonight was pork chops braised in apple juice and onions, and served with baked potatoes and canned no-salt English peas. Afterward, Hubbie and I spent our quiet hour (much needed after the two days of noisy casinos) in individual pursuits of reading and blogging.
