After several days of grey, damp, and cold weather, plus a grey, damp, and cold morning, this afternoon erupted with sun and temperatures in the high teens! And it’s not just a one-off, we might hit the low 20s by the weekend. I love Indian Summer!

I made a sale on eBay today and decided to head out after work to ship it. I was going to go to Willow Bunch when I realised I had enough errands to make it worth doing a couple of trips to Assiniboia this week. So that’s where I headed instead. And I wore sandals! 😀

This week has been so different from last week, energy-wise. I pretty much lost the Monday to Tuesday night of sleep last week and didn’t recover till the weekend. I spent the whole week in a bit of a fog where all my energy went to work, of which there was an inordinate amount. This week, I’m caught up on sleep and doing full nights, so I’m awake before my alarm. Not being woken by it makes all the difference. I’m productive during my day, have good focus, and still have energy to spare to do overtime, although it looks like I’m done putting out fires and I can take it easy the next couple of days…

The trip to town was a bit frustrating as the Co-Op gas bar has had some staffing changes and they rarely have anyone available to do propane. So I haven’t been able to get my 30lber refilled in my last two trips! Thank goodness we’re going into a warming trend or I would be seriously concerned about freezing! And I’d be really worried if I was going to be spending the winter here. I’m going to have a chat with the manager next time I see her.

One of my stops was to order two new tires for my truck. I had priced some at Walmart when I was in Moose Jaw and Kal Tire’s price of $122 per tire installed was competitive enough for me to feel that I wasn’t being a schmuck for supporting my local store.

Off to make dinner. I know I’m almost a week early for Thanksgiving, but the roast chickens were on sale today, so I’m doing a bird with a few trimmings for dinner tonight. 🙂
