I went to Middletown this morning. I went to Walmart to get a gift for my brother that was on sale. I picked up a few more things while I was there. From Walmart, I drove down Danny's Vet. They have a kennel there so I wanted to check it out. It looks like a nice place but is more that twice as expensive as Erica and he'll need a couple more shots. One for kennel cough prevention and I forget the other. Then it's four extra dollars to take him for a walk around the property. It may be worthwhile to take him to Erica's.
Next on my trip was Dollar Tree. One of the flameless candles I bought did not work so I exchanged it. I forgot my list so forgot to get the white table cloth that I put under the tree. I realized that when I was two minutes from home.
I stopped in Sears to see if they had wireless telephones. The other Sears had a four pack on sale for 79.00. Walmart had the set for 99.00. I have two phone connections here. One is in the far corner of the kitchen and the other is in the far corner of the computer room. I have the wire stretched over to the desk. I figured with the four pack set I can put on in the kitchen, one in the living room, one in the bedroom, and one in the back hallway. Ted and I put phone wiring in almost every room in our house in Vineland. Here, I'd have to crawl under the trailer and run the wires underneath and have to come up through the insulation and I don't feel like doing that.
After Sears, I headed for home the snow was starting to cover the roads. I went the long way around so I could stop at the post office. It closes at 1pm for lunch and I got there at five minutes of. After leaving the post office I realized I had forgotten the white table cloth so I headed over the bridge to the dollar store a few miles down the road. I figured I wouldn't be able to put up my tree until I get it and who knows how much snow we would get. The salt trucks were out so the roads were clear. While in the store, I heard the sale clerk and a customer talking about the house with one hundred thousand lights on it. I asked where it was and it's across from the news paper building. I don't know where that is but I can google it.
I took Danny out when I got back. He loves being out in the snow. When I walked him later though, the snow clogged up in his feet. I had to brush it out twice. He holds each paw up for me to brush. I'll have to get him some boots.
I put the tree up and put on some led lights I got after Christmas last year. They blink blue and white. I need to get one more set but I can start putting the ornaments on the top part of the tree. I also have to get some artificial snow. I either threw it out last year or I haven't found it. I keep it a couple years and then it get dusty and dirty looking. I hope I can find it at this late date. Anyway, I have the buffalo snow for under the tree that I put my ceramic houses, skating rink, and train on. I bought a set of white led lights to put under the house instead of having individual lights. If there are extra lights, I can put them under the buffalo snow.
I still have a few things to do but I'm getting there. Choir was canceled for tonight even though the main roads are clear and we only got a half inch. That's OK, I fell asleep on the sofa and I would have forgot choir practice. We have another week to practice before Christmas Eve when we sing.
