1. We're back from our first block leave vacation in 5 years and we jumped right into the chores and whatnot that needed to be done. Mostly weeding the garden and I have the torn-up hands to prove it.
2. I started thinking about how I can make grocery shopping and meal prep easier on myself and I decided to try Wal-Mart's online ordering. Sure, I usually go to the commissary because it's cheaper but I also usually buy random things that look good while I'm perusing the aisles. I put the order in on Wednesday night and picked up Thursday morning. They were pretty busy so it did take 20 minutes or so of waiting, but totally worth it. I think I'll be doing this often. It's completely free and, if you meal-prep anyway, you already have your list made out. It's just one more step to put everything into an online shopping cart. It was oddly refreshing to know exactly how much money I spent before I even got to the store.
3. We drove to San Diego last Thursday and back this past Tuesday. I'll happily recap in traditional (insufferable) blogger fashion next week, but this was the route we took.
For me (us), it's a weekend of playing catch-up and then, next week, I've really got to start making progress in my classroom. Only two full weeks of summer vacation left!
Online grocery shopping intrigues me.
ReplyDeletei am also very intrigued by online grocery shopping. there is no walmart super convenient to me, as in it's like 10 minutes away but i can legit walk to our kroger lol. but i like that it's free.
ReplyDeleteI hate going to the grocery store. I love ordering online.
ReplyDeletecant wait to see the recap of that trip - looks like a long one.
ReplyDeleteI'm dying for our grocery to start that online ordering thing. It will be so much more enjoyable for me. I LOATHE all the packing & loading of groceries so that takes out a big part of the part I hate.
ReplyDeleteI'm all about online ordering! Our walmart here just got it but I've been shopping at Hy-Vee and love it so far.
ReplyDeleteI love a good road trip, and that looks like a good one!
ReplyDeleteI'm interesting to hear about this road trip as well!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about your travels! Saw about the doggies on insta, hope they get to feeling better soon!
ReplyDeleteI've started ordering my groceries, either curbside or Instacart, and it's so worth it. Especially with all these kids!
