David drove me to the doctor, and then set out with a list of the jobs that needed doing. He actually got all of them done, by the time he picked me up. I left the examination room two hours after my appointment time. I also finished the hard cover book I took with me an started reading in the waiting room. After he came for me, we went grocery shopping, as planned. After leaving the first store, about 2;30 we were both a little "peckish" and decided to stop at Montana's restaurant for lunch. I had been there with my friend Gail about a week ago, and had looked the menu over with David in mind. so this was a sort of trial. Unfortunately he had trouble with the food. He had asked for plain chicken and plain shrimp, with no sauce or seasoning, explaining about his allergies. But something about the chicken bothered him and he complained to the waitress, who assured him there was nothing on the food, but later the manager got involved and found out that the cook hadn't wanted to serve anything absolutely plain, so had added "just a bit" of Cajun spice to the chicken to give it a bit of flavour. Guess we won't be going back there.
Today we went to Fabricland to check prices to see if I would buy batting and backing for my pieced quilt there, or at the quilt store. Regular prices at the quilt store are slightly less that regular prices at Fabricland. Unexpectedly we ran into a 50% off sale, so picked up the batting for both the pieced quilt and, maybe, the hexie quilt, as well as fabric for backing, and found a big package of cotton batting at a fantastic price.
I've now got everything ready for my trip to Selkirk tomorrow, as well as tomorrow's ATC luncheon. David is still watching his football game, and we wait for supper. Hopefully a quiet evening.
