My new treadmill home is perfect. I have been listening to my audiobook while I treadmill but last night I finished one and I don't have the next one queued up yet. So I turned on the TV and watched an episode of Reba (still one of my all time favorite sit coms and it's not too dated yet). I walk for 25 minutes and without ads, Reba is just over 22. Perfect. It really is a nice option to have. Plus I do love all the extra room now in the bedroom - I like the look and the feel. I just need to get that duvet cover so that it does not look like an unmade bed!
I have no Popeye's in the freezer and haven't had any in more than a week. This situation needs to be fixed. So today, I'll make the trek over there and lay in the needed supplies. After all, I still have 22 more days until I get my first jelly!
Is there a pre-advent calendar? hmmmm
There's a soccer game in the stadium across the street today and in normal times that would mean a trip out anywhere in the car would not be worth it - too much traffic. But, now, there will be a smattering of fans at the open air sports bar on the corner but nothing to clog up roads. So, once again, the pandemic giveth.
I do need to find my next book today. There are several that are not in the libraries on my to read list but they are on Audible. I killed Audible in October. A couple of weeks ago they had a sale $50 off the yearly deal. ($100 instead of $150 for 12 books over a year.) I couldn't find it and figured it was over. But they still let you email customer service so I did. I asked if they were going to repeat the deal for Black Friday or Christmas or would they just give it to me now. In 3 hours I got a reply saying Yes. I checked my account and there it was. 12 book credits and my credit card had been charged only $100. Wow. So now I have way too many choices.
OMG, Just saw the news about Alex Trebek's passing. Not a huge surprise but still. Big old bummer. He did good. Wonder what Jeopardy will do on Monday.
The sun is out and throwing shadows on the terrace. There are some leaves falling onto the terrace from the Tree That I Hate and just now a big old crow swooped by. Biggie is having the very busiest of mornings out there. That cat door was the best money I've spent in a while. In and out and in and out and in and out. All damn day long. My other cats liked it out there once in a while but they did not have the dedication to the job like Biggie.
Time to shower and get into my road trip clothes.
