I WENT TO TARGET

 Hello, friends!  Thank you for all your prayers and good wishes.  I continue to improve each day and that is a blessing from God.  I know that your prayers and the prayers of my friends and family are helping more than the medicine.  But that is helping too and I took only one dose of pain medicine yesterday.

Joe had to run to Target to get his new phone activated and of course I had to drive him.  (Joe has epilepsy so doesn't drive anymore.)  I wasn't sure about driving with my bad knee, but things went fine.  Since our Target still has not reopened following all the looting, we had to go to the next nearest one which is about 20 minutes away.  I had never been there before and in fact had heard bad things about it, but it was beautiful and very clean.  But very crowded.

We agreed to meet up at the car and Joe went back to electronics.  I knew I couldn't go walking around the store and just wanted to hit up the Bullseye Spot.  It was great.  And I went spending money.  First let me show you a few things they had.

Lots of gift bags and boxes.  All sizes.

They had tons of candles too.  I'm not fond of Target candles though.  I don't think they have a lot of scent.

Sweet little wooden trees.  There were just these four left, though, and you can see that at least one of them was broken.

This little bird was so sweet.  He was the only one left.  I was very tempted to buy him but I have so much Christmas stuff.  Joe saw the picture and said I should have gotten him.  *sigh*

Jingle bells!

There was a forest of little Christmas trees.  Some plain, some flocked, and even some silver ones.

I left the Bullseye Spot and wandered a little ways over to where they had gingerbread houses.  All kinds, sizes and shapes.  Even a camper.  I thought about getting that one for my sister-in-law and I might go back to get one.

I waited for Joe in the car to finish up and listened to the news telling about the new shut-down Pennsylvania is going into.  And Philly is even worse.  Life is certainly going to be different this Christmas.

So do you want to see what I actually got?  Here you go.  I actually didn't get much.

These little wooden houses are so cute and I know just where I'm going to put them.  And I got the one unique tree there.

These are Crayola bath soap pens.  Kids can draw on themselves (or the wall) while they are in the tub.  I got a pink strawberry one for Hadley and a blueberry one for Bipp.  I'm starting a box to send to them soon.  I also got some Hershey kisses for me.  I've been craving chocolate.  These just hit the spot.

A couple of large gift bags.

A

And a couple of smaller bags.

Two packages of shirt boxes.  I am always looking for boxes during Christmas.

For a couple of years now I have been watching people on vlogs decorate their tiered trays.  I always wanted one but couldn't find any I liked.  But I found this one.  It only cost $3.  I can't wait to clear off my kitchen table and use it.

And finally these sofa throws were only $5.  I couldn't decide between these two patterns, so I got both.

I was hungry and so was the car.  So on the way home we stopped off and got gas and then Joe ran into Shop Rite and got us sushi.  I wasn't sure about eating it, but I did OK.

For dinner I wanted soup, so we called the new Chinese restaurant we've been using and got dinner.  Joe had Chicken Chow Mein platter and I got Egg Drop Soup and an Egg Roll.  It just hit the spot.

And now I have to get off of here and get ready for Bible Study.  This is the last week for this year.  And just in time too since we are being shut down so tightly this week.  I have great hopes with this new vaccine that next year will be different.

Take care, friends, and have a wonderful day.  I'll see you soon.
