I Went Out

Today has been quiet. I spent a lot of time on writing stuff and I chopped up four punnets of mushrooms that had been on an excellent offer for the freezer. 

I haven't driven since early January. I hurt my shoulder, and then, when it was feeling a little better, I found the thought of it overwhelming. However, DH needs salad for tomorrow and I'm running a little low on the flavoured water that he likes, so I decided to go to Tesco. As I knew that I wouldn't be confident driving, I waited until it was late and the roads should be quiet before setting off.

I found it tough, I'll be honest. I was out of practice and feeling nervous, but I did it! I drove safely there, though it took me a few minutes to get up to speed. There was a reason that I didn't go out when it was busy. I didn't want to be a hazard. I nearly forgot to take a pic to prove that I'd been out, but I remembered on my way out, and I took a pic of houseplants that looked amazing and that I had no intention of buying.


I intend to go out again tomorrow, and again go out late. There is an Aldi which is around ten miles away from us. They have the habit of putting out Thursday's special buys late on Wednesday. I have my eye on the bedding, as mine is wearing out and I kind of like the blue stripes that are advertised on the website. It won't be a great hardship if I can't get any, as there are ruffles and I'm never 100% behind ruffles, but it's also a great reason to get me moving out and about. 

I hope that I'll have something interesting to post tomorrow. 

Hugs and good health to all.
