We had quite a long list of things that need to be replaced, so we set out for Meijer - thinking that we could do one-stop shopping. I knew what kind of a crock pot I wanted, so we went there first - and they didn't have it. They had lots of crock pots, but not that particular one (5 qt. Rival Smart Pot). They didn't have the electric can opener we wanted either. We did get a steam iron and a clock radio and some groceries, and then we headed for the Post Office to mail bills.
Dick had picked up a Greek Pirate travel bug Tuesday in Gaylord at the Rainbow Trophy store. He wanted to take a picture of the travel bug with something Greek - so we went to the U&I for lunch, and Dick ordered a gyro. He propped the travel bug up next to the gyro and took its picture (geocachers are a little screwy).
After lunch we went to the Kitchen Collection at the Horizon Outlet Mall and were able to get the right crockpot and the right can opener. So now we are fully outfitted. Well...except for the new phone we want...but I think we're going to order that on the internet.
Mother seems comfortable with her new caretaker. She says Stacy is a good shopper, and that's very important to Mom.
