shopping, etc.

I'm trying to resist the call of "cyher Monday" one-day sales. However, I pointed cattitude at a Lands End sale, since I vaguely remembered he wanted to get something from them; at 60% off he decided to get more of the better-fitting pants now rather than wait for the rest of his pants to wear out and need replacement.

I also used a code from WhatsGood, because I wanted more good apples, and I wanted to order enough that the delivery fee wouldn't be more than the price of the food. So, two quarter-peck bags of apples, a variety of seafood, two different kinds of squash, and some cucumbers, all of which will be arriving Thursday. (Waiting until Thursday means we can get fresh seafood; Tuesday or Wednesday, they'll only bring frozen and smoked fish.) This does mean three more apple-less days, in New England, in November, which feels wrong, beyond me wanting the apples.

And I ordered a set of colored pencils, in the optimistic hope that I'll use them if they're here. I hadn't much, years ago, but I expect to be staying close to home because of the pandemic for at least a few more months.
