Ellexia and I headed to Wichita this morning a little before 10:00. First stop was Best Buy to get my iPhone screen replaced. I had a very capable young lady waiting on me. She discovered it was the screen protector that had broken and not the actual iPhone screen. Wow! That saved me a lot of money. She took me to find a new screen protector and the right size Otterbox. Verizon had sold me the wrong size Otterbox.
She got me all fixed up and out of there in under 30 minutes. She even discovered the Otterbox price was cheaper on-line and reduced the price for me. She was amazing.
We found a Roku device for Ellexia’s TV so purchased that and then headed to Dick’s Sporting Goods which was right next door. Ellexia needed some new Crocs. They didn’t have her size and we didn’t find anything else we needed there.
We went to Chipotle for lunch. Ellexia had never eaten there before but she liked it.
We googled and found an Academy Sports store which was on our way to Costco. We saw a Barnes and Noble store on our way so stopped there and got Ellexia a book to read on the flight to LA. We then went to the Academy store and found a pair of Crocs for Ellexia.
Next up was Costco. We managed to fill our cart full and then headed home. I stopped at the garage in Cottonwood Falls but they hadn’t started working on Tagen’s truck yet. It was in the shop and next up to be looked at. He will call me when he finds out what is wrong with it.
Came home and unloaded the car. Ellexia and I are both shopped out. It was a successful trip though as Ellexia got both things she wanted, I got my iPhone fixed much cheaper than I had anticipated, and the Costco run for the month is done.
Tagen brought up 11 eggs today. He said he scared one of the chickens out of the nesting box and as they ran away to go outside they dropped an egg in the coop. He went inside the coop and picked it up. Talk about a fresh egg!
I am grateful to be home. Shopping wears me out! It was a relatively easy trip but I am exhausted. Grateful I get to stay home for the next three days.
There is a haze on the prairie today. We have had cloud cover all day but no rain. There is a chance for some rain overnight. It didn’t get as warm as the forecast predicted today. Only reached the mid 80’s. That is good for me! It is to be over 100 next week.
I don’t think it has hit me yet that Ellexia and I will be leaving on our cruising adventure Sunday. I need to get myself organized and get my head in the game. I’m sure it will be more fun then I am thinking it is going to be. Fingers crossed the weather will be good. If Ellexia is as good on the cruise as she was today, she will be fun to travel with.
The dryer is to be delivered tomorrow. I have extra laundry to do after it gets installed as I have been waiting to change linens on the bed until the new dryer gets here. It will be good to get that crossed off my list. Now to get the plumber to show up — his week is running out of days for him to show up.
Sitting in a good head space today. Feeling very blessed that I got a very helpful clerk at Best Buy that made that visit very easy for me, not to mention much cheaper than I had anticipated. The other clerks we had today were all helpful and fun to deal with.
Grateful the iPhone is fixed, grateful for the fun day with Ellexia, and grateful we had a safe trip.
