A blog about Wal-mart and other randomness...

Shalom ya'll. So today I braved the city streets solo for the second time since getting here last Tuesday!

After perusing the online flyers I set out on my mission to Wal-mart for a grocery haul for the weekend, well actually I am used to shopping for more than two so it'll probably last way longer than just the weekend. Anyway I got there and the grocery section of the store was pretty well the same size as our entire Wal-mart back home, pretty crazy!

 On my way back from my expedition however, I had to take a detour around some road work and I am pretty sure that the road I took was never plowed after the dump of snow we got last weekend (where is my Subaru when I need it?? Oh yeah...it's at home in Ontario *sniff sniff*) and somehow my usual enthusiasm for taking such roads was replaced by the realization of the very likely possibility of getting stuck :P....I don't like getting stuck...duh that's why I own an AWD Subaru with snow treads! (winter driving = soooo much fun now!!). Thankfully due to my awesome driving skills I didn't get stuck, but I did miss my turn which required me to drive further on such streets as the one formerly mentioned until I figured out where the heck I was and got back to where I needed to be!

Yeah it's all very different than what I am used to. Back home the drive to town is the most relaxing part of the whole outing. Rolling hills, and trees instead of the drum of rolling tires and crazy drivers who think the use of their signals are a waste of their time. *Sigh*

So that was my "big" outing today, then I came home and finally got my suit cases out of the kitchen/living space in my sister's place and gave them a home in the furnace room  >>>>>

And yo! Behold! A feat of thrifty engineering if I do say so myself!
