Wednesday, July 29

We were up around 7:30 this morning, and I did a treadmill session and weights exercises after breakfast. After I got ready for the day, I did this and that until noon, including ordering a vintage cookbook online, and helping Mother finish a greeting card she'd created.





For lunch, we had turkey bacon, tomato, Vidalia onion, lettuce sandwiches, with potato salad. Then Hubbie and I ran a couple of errands...to my cardiologist's office to drop off a letter about the price of my cholesterol medication increasing, unless the doctor can justify my taking the name brand instead of a generic; to the grocery store to pick up prescriptions at their pharmacy, and bananas for 39 cents a pound; then to a couple of fruit stands to get a half bushel of peaches, some tomatoes (since our vines are not producing right now), a watermelon (priced at $2, because the vendor was ready to close), and a giant cantaloupe, all of which are locally grown produce.





Back home, I washed a couple of loads of clothes, and made a batch of bran muffins to have with chicken noodle soup for supper, which was very good on this rainy evening. Mother went home after that, and Hubbie and I settled in to watch TV.



We started with "Deadliest Sea," recorded on DVR from the Discovery Channel. It's a 2009 made-for-TV movie about Kodiak, Alaska, scallop fishermen trying to survive in a storm pounded sea. Based on a true story.



The second feature we watched was "Blood Crime," rated "R" and starring James Caan, Jonathon Schaech, Elizabeth Lackey, and David Field. A Seattle man takes his wife on a trip, and they stop to camp. He returns to a store to get snacks, leaving his wife behind, and she is attacked while he is gone. From there, things get violent and tense.
