Monday Morning This and That

Morning all.  The start of a new week.  

On Friday I had jewelry class.  Wasn't feeling up to par because I hadn't been sleeping well, so I only got two pairs of earrings made.  Saturday I devoted to jewelry making.  Here's few items I made:








On Sunday I headed out to the Farmer's Market.  The center gave each of us vouchers for $20.  My friend got, but she doesn't go and didn't want so she gave hers to me so I have another $20 for next time.  In turn, I give her my sandwiches, bring her treats, and made her a necklace.  She didn't want anything in return, but I feel better when I do something nice for someone.

Sunday was one of those days.  Had so many plans but they all went awry.  Took the bus out to 18th Avenue.   Got off the bus and walked to the subway station to put money on my card, then walked the rest of the way to the bank. About halfway there I saw it. The 18th Avenue feast. I had planned all week on going to the Farmer's Market with the vouchers but it wasn't meant to be. The bus had to turn off the route and then lets you off quite a ways from your destination. It's okay going, but carrying bags to go back? Nope. I don't think so.

So I go to the bank to draw out some of the bill money. Neither ATM works. Meats were sky high in C Town and I only walked out with one, some fruit for me, mandarins for Ralph, tuna and ham for lunch. The bus route is changed because of the feast so I just walked the entire way back to 60th. On the plus side, I did get in a lot of walking, over 16 blocks in total.

But it all ended well.  Went out to Dinner at Olive Garden and enjoyed a relaxing meal.

Have a good one.
