Woke up after another great sleep at 5:30. Spent some time
on the computer before having breakfast.
After breakfast I went with Susan and Troy to buy him some
new clothes. His current growing spurt has meant only one pair of pants fitted.
We got what we needed at Walmart. I found some wool to fix a cardigan of
Susan’s.
Slight issue with the language. I asked an assistant for the wool
section and got a very blank stare. “I’m not familiar with this section” was
his response and then as we walked up the aisles and he went straight passed
the wool, I remembered at that point it is called “yarn” over here. So I
explained it to him and got what I wanted.
Back home I spent the next few hours mending the holes in the cardigan outside in the shade, then got onto some stitching. It was a lovey day.
At 12:45 we left for the mall to have lunch with friends at "Chipotle"- Mexican type food. With the exception of the cilantro/ coriander, the
meal was really nice, but the restaurant was so cold I had to put on my
cardigan.
We left there to go to the movies to see “Kubo and the Two Strings” a 2016
American 3D stop-motion fantasy action adventure
film. Great film. Good mix of scary, some humour, fantastic mix of
puppetry and other effects. Brilliant use of origami. Well worth a look. Might
be a bit too scary for little kids? Or me at times. I needed a tissue at the
end.
After the movie we came back home. Susan went to the gym,
Troy was back on his online game, Oscar and I on computers and Teagan at a
friend’s house. Too nice to be inside I’m about to take Churro for a walk.
After the walk Susan returned with a new scout vest for Teagan that needed the addition of a few badges. Had to be ironed on and because it is me I tried to stitch just in the corners to be sure. Lucky I had mt thimble. Definitely NOT made for stitching these days. We had leftovers for
dinner, dishes done and computer for me to read more of my E-book. Lovely balmy night.
Crickets blasting away outside.
And No photos today!!!
