Running in Place

billroperGretchen decided that she didn't want to run out for lunch today, so I figured I'd go out and grab a burger at Chili's (which she is tired of). And while I was out that way, I could save a couple of dollars on two cartons of lactose-free milk by going to Trader Joe's. Forty dollars worth of groceries later, I was on my way home, stopping by Mug's to grab a salad for Gretchen's lunch.
But, in any case, I saved two dollars on the milk.
I got two loads of laundry pushed through today. While the second load was in the washer, I stopped to upgrade some of the software on the studio computer. By the time I was done purchasing and installing all of the software that came with the upgrade, the load in the washer was ready to go to the dryer and the shirts were ready to hang.
I had woefully overfilled the freezer by purchasing two boxes of lava cakes at Trader Joe's for tonight's dessert, so I was thinking that it would be good to eat *something* from the freezer for dinner. And then I remembered that we had a pizza from Gulliver's that had been languishing there for a while. A quick 35 minute reheat and we had dinner, and then Julie made pizza rolls in the already hot oven. Not too much later, I fired the oven up again and we had the lava cakes.
We have designs on doing some more housecleaning of one stripe or another.
Maybe tomorrow.
