MEMORIES

Today I went for lunch with a new friend. She’s actually a friend of a friend. She has been very friendly so I decided I could use a new friend. I don’t know if we will ever be really close but for now it is someone new to hang out with. We went out for lunch at a Greek restaurant. The food was very good – it included dessert – some type of sponge cake which I actually ate the whole thing.
Then we went to the DIRTY bakery. The pastry etc. is actually delicious there. I think it use to be dirty many years ago and the name stuck. I bought some cookies for the grandchildren, some potato knishes and a cinnamon danish for our bridge group next week. Of course I froze it.
Next we went to take pictures of the area where my SIL use to live. I took pictures of their home, old school, synagogue and the bakery. I think they will enjoy seeing them. At least I hope so.
Then I took her home.
I went to a used store like Salvation Army where I bought a bunch of books for four dollars each to sell on AMAZON. I realize that I bought the wrong type. I also spent too much for each one. I should go to garage sales. I should sell my own. I bought paperback fiction. I should have bought non fiction! There was a book of ELVIS’s music sheets which I should have bought. Maybe I’ll go back. It’s hard for me to know what would sell on EBAY or AMAZON. Anyhow I listed all the books. There are so many for sale I probably won’t sell anything. How’s that for being positive???? NOT!
I put our barbecue up for sale. Now that I know how to include pictures I’m trying to sell whatever I can on Kijiji. I asked 229 and got an offer for 120. I counter offered for 170!!!!! I suggested he come see it. I hope it sells. More money for my trip to NY.
Next I stopped by Bureau En Gros to buy a mouse. The one I had died the other day and I couldn’t stand using the mouse pad. I bought a cute pink one to support breast cancer.
This afternoon another agent came to see the house. I will have to make sure it is perfect or close to it before I leave.
I came home and made supper – nothing special – just an omelet and salad. My son came. He’s been coming more often lately as he’s anxious to talk to us about his job. I’m not sure if I wrote this before but his boss cut his salary. My son should leave but wants to stay……………………
So that was it. I did some scrap booking and then went to bed early. I thought I would sleep better since I didn’t nap yesterday but I am still up at 3. I will go back to bed after I write this entry. Have a peaceful night and an enjoyable day.
