02/January/2015, Day 002. Friday.
As most days when Grump isn't at work turn out to be, (as TOO MANY days turn out to be, in Grumps opinion!), today evolved into a Shopping Day.
Despite the fact that Grump's fat old body was still wracked with whatever crud has recently chosen to infect him, and the overcast, cool skies and sporadic bursts of cold rain, we all jammed into Grumps tiny car, (the bigger car was unusable since SOMEBODY barfed all over his car seat yesterday), and went shopping.
First stop was Sam's Club to buy some decent rice. Most of the grocery stores around here don't even carry a basic jasmine rice, which, considering how poorly Americans cook rice anyway, (at least according to Sweetie), probably isn't that much of a catastrophe. We picked up some other goodies at Sam's, (fruits and such), then zipped back home so Grump could rest his battered old body.
After a quick lunch of eggs, hotdogs, and rice, we went shopping again, this time to get bedsheets for the twin mattresses on the new bunk bed we bought for Kuya and Dodong. After that we stopped off at the grocery store to buy food for Dodong, and some more fruit, this time persimmons for Sweetie.
Now it's not quite even 6:00 pm yet, but Grump is already making mutterings about going to bed! What better to do on a dreary cold rainy day than sleep and save up your energy for when the sunshine returns?
