No rain! Temps got to low 80s and I caught up on grocery shopping and errands. My original "girl" shopping was planned to spend a small fortune on getting a new bra that might make me look a little less droopy. On the way to Macys, I stopped by TJ Maxx outlet store. There on the rack were the same bras (Wacaol) for 1/4 the price of Macys - just waiting for me. Ooh - I just love a good bargain. Found a big canvas tote bag with the letter B embroidered on it in red (our lastname starts with B), plus some nice white T shirts in the sporting section. The shirts are made to wick away moisture and I think they will do well in the heat. I'm fussy about the type of wallet I carry and lucked out - found a name brand in a light color. I now have a summer and winter wallet - LOL. I get accustomed to where everything is in a wallet and just hate to change. DH is the same and we wind up with the most worn out looking things. DH says that's good - any robber will take a look at our wallets and wind up giving US some $$. While I was out I stopped at the charity store and picked up more silk flowers for DGRDs fall wedding. Luckily all the flowers I'd bought earlier where up off the floor when we had a tiny bit of seepage in the basement last week. We have everything on wooden pallets - just to be safe.

Weds will be pretty routine. Hopefully I will get in another nice long bike ride in the nature area of our huge city park. Then I just need to pack to leave early Thurs for a few days in St Louis. We will detour on the way to have lunch with DBIL. He is 75 and drives less as time goes by. Any time we are in the area we meet for lunch. He doesn't invite us to the house because he admits it is a mess since DSIL died 15 years ago. His DD refuses to even go into the house anymore. She has had several yard sales, but claims he just keeps buying more stuff. All the more reason for me to keep after DH to get rid of the outdated electronics junk in our basement.

Off to watch the rest of a high tech spy movie DH recorded.
