Shopping and Q tips

We went to Cub Foods for their specials, again very few people there.  I hope they can pull it together and survive the opening of two new grocery stores.  We have within a few minutes drive: 2 Cub Foods, 2 Targets, Walmart, Fresh Thyme, Aldi and now HyVee.  8 grocery stores in all.

We got a couple hamburgers from McDonald's to take home for lunch.  Sat out on the deck for awhile until we got too much sun.

In the afternoon we decided to finally tackle the dirty light switches.  They had dirt embedded in them around the edges.  Maybe because the house is 30 years old or because the last person who lived here 20 years had dirty hands.  It entailed taking the plate off and cleaning the switch with Q tips.  Took awhile but done for maybe another 30 years!

Daughter Sheila found this photo of our first house. It looked better then but it was new.  Now about 47 years old.  In Ames, Iowa
