Advent, Day 22
Dec. 22nd, 2022 06:40 pmI got up at half past 5, which is abysmally early in my books, so I could be at Aldi and Lidl, respectively, right when they open. Oddly enough, a great many other people got the same idea, and when I reached Lidl at 7:10, it were so full I could hardly find a shopping cart. I never saw so many people in there; but, of course, Hungarian people regularly panic when the food shops are closed for two days in a row. I guess they're afraid they'd starve if they can't go and buy food any time the fancy takes them. I don't even want to think about what the supermarkets will be like tomorrow and the morning after! I certainly won't leave the house until next Tuesday.
In any case, I got everything I needed (this was the first time I went out since last Saturday, when I froze hard during the concert), which is good, since the fridge was practically empty. Then we had breakfast, watched some telly, and the talkative chiropodist lady came around 10am. She was in great form, so she only left around 1pm. *sigh* By that time I decided that putting up the Christmas tree would have to wait until tomorrow. I was mentally drained by all that talking.
At least I managed to finish the car page. All required elements are in place, the only thing I might or might not add is a teddy bear crossing the road. Tomorrow, if there's enough natural light for the mini, I'll try to take a photo.
We had lunch, watched some more telly, and then broke down and had a nap, both of us. When we woke up, it was 5:30pm - really too late to do anything of importance. So we didn't. Mum talked to her friend, I talked to Evie, and that was it for today. Well, there's still a lot of washing-up to do for Mum, but that's her own fault for not letting me do it.
