Off


I had a lovely lie-in this morning. After all that hard work of last week (out of the seven days, I worked one) and yesterday (split shift: three hours in total), I needed it! I also needed to get some serious shopping done. Of course I could have done it yesterday, but I didn't, so it had to be today!

When I first thought of it today, it was raining. Not hard, only a severe drizzle, but still... But by four this afternoon it was dry and I decided now was the time. I got on my bike, cycled to the store, probably missed half of what I needed, and came out of the supermarket. It rained!

I stuffed everything in the sidebags on my bike and rode home in a miserable mood. It is well and truly autumn now! And if anyone is wondering why I don't drive to the supermarket: I don't own a car...

  4. Even if you had a car it seems that it always rains on a day that I am going to go to the grocery store. Your getting great exercise.

  5. Sorry I am running behind on my blog reading.
    Even with a car, grocery shopping and raining are no fun and it usually happens to me by the time things are loaded and unloaded at home I look like I took a shower with my clothes on!
