Home Sweet Home

 

The roads were great if a bit blowy on our way home today and I am glad we did not come home yesterday. I believe the roads would have been icy and snow covered.

However, we got into Estevan, pulled in the driveway and started to remove the items from the back of the car. I started to walk towards the sidewalk beside our vehicle shelter and started to slide!!! I managed to keep my balance, warned Harvey and made my way slowly down the path. This was actually the iciest part of our trip (well there was one fairly icy patch in Regina). 

Once all was inside, Harvey went out and sprinkled ice melt and then later went out to chip away at it. We definitely need more ice melt as the bag I purchased is now gone. Hope we can find some. 

No menu plan today as I need to do a bit of tweaking on it since we were gone and I just pulled whatever out of the fridge freezer to have for supper tonight. 

It has been snowing off and on since we got home, and between that and the icy roads in the city (and of course grocery shopping parking lots) I am going to give a few more days before I head out and pick up what we need. I also hope that we will have better sales as well. Good sales are few and far between and the new sale will start on Thursday. Flyers will come out today and tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed. 

Supper is almost ready. I will try and catch up with all of you a bit later tonight and tomorrow morning. I probably have lots of reading to do.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

  6. Glad you made it home safe and didn't fall. The ice everywhere is absolutely crazy right now. I'm seeing a lot of folks with ice cleats attached to their shoes when I go out.

  7. Glad you are home safe and sound, but isn't it just folly that you could fall and break something in the driveway?

  8. Good thing you didn't fall! I have discovered that the new boots I spent a small fortune on are absolutely terrible when it's the least bit icy. I hope I can get through this winter with them and then I'll have to search out something better for next year. I am so afraid of falling so I need good boots.
