Bought kid a pair of noice cancelling headphones.
They'll arrive tomorrow.
That is equal parts gift for you and gift for them
True, if they work well we'll both benefit immensely from them. She doesn't really like noice cancelling. But her headphones broke beyond repair. And the replacement she ordered couldn't be delivered, due to covid-19. So I decided to go for this option. The noice cancelling mode can be switched on and off. I think she'll enjoy it immensely when all neighbours bring out their powertools because of the intelligent lockdown.

Today I bought paper towels, hand wash (not the sort I usually get but there were only two bottles there to choose from), spaghetti and cereal.

I couldn't find tea tree oil and I looked in 3 different places for that. Couldn't find kitchen wipes either, so I'll just use paper towels and Spray & Wipe.

Shampoo and conditioner bars instead of the regular plastic bottles. They last a lot longer and I'm hoping they'll work better. Our water is hard and it's taking a toll on my hair.

Nothing for awhile,  but think I will venture out tomorrow for propane

First time I read this I thought "spaghetti" and "cereal" were really weird scents for hand soap.  :asthing: :asthing: :asthing:

I had to go hunting, but, I finally found Carla's favorite JIF chunky peanut butter.  It really amazes me to see every day what is out of stock and what is in stock.   :facepalm2:  It literally changes every bloody day.

I just paid my electric bill as well.  As it snows and sleets with high winds and there is a warning for a possible power outage......which they would never give us a credit for.   :finger:
