This morning Lloyd and I went to Safeway to get some groceries - we decided that as Parker arrives next week, and as the children go back to school next week, it would be better to wait until next weekend to go to Costco. So we just did a weeks worth of grocery shopping today. Safeway have sooooo many FAB deals right now that I was pleased we went! Sam came with us.
After Safeway we went to Chapters where I tried to exchange a book that I bought online - but they couldn't do it because their computer system is down today - so I have to go back - I did get Laurie book 4 of his series though (Alex Rider). We had coffee in Starbucks and Sam had a fruit bowl but got into a juicy dribbly mess lol!
After that I ran to the scrapbook store to get the Fall issue of Canadian Scrapbooker magazine! In the Winter issue, a lady I chat with on Scrappers Haven is going to have 3 layouts published - isn't that FAB????? I love her pages!
Oh and Scrappers Haven are already getting people to sign up for the next round of Iron Chef - come along and sign up - its a really fun contest! www.scrappershaven.ca
This afternoon I have spent replying to Emails and signing up to take part in the Run for the Cure......I also made a rhubarb crumble for supper tonight and prepped a big bag of crumble mix which is now in the freezer so I can throw a crumble together next week one night for Lloyd and his friend who will be staying.
I also baked a batch of oatmeal raisin cookies.
I have horrible horrible tummy ache today and may soak in the bath this evening - although I DID plan to scrapbook at the table while Lloyd works on some projects at the table for the company taking us to Whistler.
Oh and I forgot to blog the other day - part of our week away in October will be by the US border - so we are hoping to cross the border into Washington State for a day of shopping :) woohoo :)
Right now my girls are upstairs dancing to Abba songs, Lloyd and the boys are outside throwing a few more things in the big bin. The girls have been on the quadbikes a lot today too....oh and Sugar has been on LOTS of walks today.....but she hasn't eaten anything yet so I think she's missing Christie a bit......hopefully we can persuade her to eat this evening....she is such a great dog and has had a blast in the woods and up on Marys land.
