Spending Time With Mom And Trip To Olympia

This morning, I had to get moving. Was at moms by 9:20 am. We then headed up to Olympia. She needed to have her hearing aids checked. She was having trouble and wanted to get them check. We arrived at Costco, and they took her hearing aids to clean them and then check them. There was a lot of "stuff" in the hearing aids, so it just needed cleaned. We shopped while we waited. I needed to pick up a few things that we missed last week. Both mom and I found some crab!! So, we bought 2 containers of crabs. The deal was that she would come over for dinner because she loves crab as much as I do. I agreed. Sent Patrick a message that mom was coming over for dinner, and we were having crab. lol I picked up a few things as well. Patrick was complaining he needed dessert, so I bought popcorn (with chocolate), chocolate covered pretzels, and a tin of cookies. Hopefully that will keep him going. 

Our next stop was to the Xfinity shop. Mom was having trouble with her TV and cable. We waited a good 20 minutes before we were called. She asked for someone to come out and check it out. They also put that she may need 2 new boxes. I'm betting that's the case. We made the appointment for tomorrow between 10-12 noon. She will be late getting here, but she will at least get her TV fixed. 

Next stop - mom was hunger by then - Panara Bread. We had a salad and then came home. I dropped her off and put her stuff in the house for her. Then I put our stuff in the car and headed to Dutch Brothers for tea and coffee. I needed to get a gift card for Debbie, since today was her Birthday. I also have a cake for her. 

Mom had 4 quilts done for me to bring home, so put them in the car as well. Came home and then worked on my beading for a bit. Waiting for mom to come for supper. 

I didn't finish it, but I did get about half of that work done. I was on a roll. Then mom arrived and we had supper with the crab. I made the Red Lobster bisques, and it turned out great!

Mom helped me clean the extra crab meat and then we have it ready for tomorrow. Mom is going to bring some stuff to make crab salad. I'm looking forward to that. 

Now I'm all set for tomorrow. We have sew day and hopefully will get a lot done. At least, as busy as I was today, I was able to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
