Tueday, July 13, 2021 – Runaround Shopping Day

Hi Sweetie,
Had a pretty good night sleep, woke up a couple of times, finally had to read a bit around 5:00, but then fell asleep again. Had a bit of rain come in, and it got worse after I got up, but I managed to get the horses fed between showers. After breakfast I went into town, first going to Scott’s Body Shop for an estimate on the truck damage from the limb that fell on the hood at Jeff’s, then on to Tractor Supply for horse feed, medicated shampoo (Apollo’s got a case of rain rot) and antibiotic spray. Though they had a propane tank in their gated area, they aren’t selling it yet, so I had to go to an Amoco station across town to get some, but they were pretty fair, even though it was by weight they did deduct for what was in the tank, unlike some places. Finally off to Walmart for my big shopping day, it’s been awhile since I’ve gotten groceries. They were having a clearance sale on some weird bourbon, cream, ginger stuff that I persuaded myself to get for a change, turned out to be awfully nice, so it won’t last long! Got back to camp and treated Apollo’s rain rot, put everything away, did a few odd chores. I’m happy to report that despite all the rain, and it coming from seemingly the right direction, there were NO LEAKS around my bedroom window, so I’m hoping I finally solved the problem. There’s more rain forecast later in the week, so I’ll hold off stating that as a definitive until it’s had a few more rounds of rain, but fingers crossed, I think I may have finally solved the problem. Had a nice grilled chicken dinner, than took a walk around camp to visit with two ladies staying at the bottom of the hill for awhile. Got back to discover it was well after 9:00! I really don’t like this late daylight for some reason, it just seems too light for bed, yet it’s time for shower and bed already. I’m still going to watch a one hour TV program, just to wind down, but then it will definitely be time to go. Good night, my darlin’! Love you!
