Grocery Shopping

Spent the morning at the grocery store getting some of the basics. My knee wasn't cooperating so it took a bit longer than I would have hoped. By the time I got home I didn't think I was going to be able to make it back inside. Gertie helped me put the groceries away - well, she poked her nose in every bag to be sure I got everything she needed. I had bought her some new treats - Old Roy chew sticks. Gertie is fun to watch with a new treat because she isn't sure what she should do with it at first. She nudged and nudged the treat and finally gave it a try - next thing I know she's chewing with gusto and soon it was gone.

I had to take a nap this afternoon and get my leg up - that and a pain killer helped with the pain a bit. I'm still hobbling but able to get around the house. And I've got my walker to hang on so if my knee gives out I can hop to a chair.

I received half of the fruits I need for my fruitcake - the rest should be here tomorrow and then I can start getting things together and soaking in some alcohol. Yummy!

Guess it's time to go make a salad and enjoy some evening television......
