A good, full day. Called old friend, Marilyn, to find she was up in Canton (PA), her hometown, visiting her mother. This is only a half-hour or so from Wellsboro and she asked if I'd like to ride up with her for Mother's Day. I probably won't, but hope to another time. We made a date for lunch in Trenton on Friday; I'll be in the area for an errand, anyway.
Picked up Aline at our usual 12:30 and we went back to El Rancho. Betty joined us and we had a good, convivial time. A. and I then went on to Manahawkin, where I tried on bathing suits at Kohl's--agh! First of all, they were all hideous and second, they made me look like a pregnant whale. I had left my other one at the motel in Wellsboro, no tragedy, as I hated it anyway.
Howsomever--Aline tried on shoes and when I saw a pair she had chosen, I tried them on and found they seem to be comfortable on my callus-plagued left foot, so wanted to buy the same. However, they had no more in my size (9), so I called on the "on-line phone" at the office. I was gratified to realize the shoes were originally $59.95, but reduced to $33.95, and I had a store credit for $10, plus a 30 percent discount. Final cost: $16.79--whee! Plus, they'll be mailed to my home for no charge.
Went to B.J.'s, where I picked up some items, and it was after 5:00 when I dropped A. off. Stopped at Rite-Aid and Acme after, then rolled home.
Good grief, it's May already! Must think about getting the flower beds in shape.
