Today was a street-sweeping day and I had to move my car.  While I was out, I took a swing past the library drop-off bin and the post office mailbox.  When I came back home, there were no parking places to be had.  I mean, there were NONE in a three-block area.  I gave up looking, because I was just driving round and round.  I decided to do other things instead.  First I went to McDonalds to get breakfast, because I was starving.  I spent $3 there.  Then I drove to the Home Depot lot, and sat there in my car and ate my breakfast (indoor dining has been cut back again).  Then I decided to go to Sam's, to pick up some fruit and buy gas.  I bought apples, raspberries and blueberries for $17.  Since I was there, I topped off my tank for $13.  I couldn't think of anything else I wanted to do, so I went home again.  This time I found a spot.  It's not my favorite place to park, as it's on a busy street (it's where my previous car was totaled while parked).  But it was my only choice, so there it is.  Tomorrow I'm going to go to the library to pick up some books on hold, so I'll move the car to a better place then.

Variables are at 96%, but the month is almost done, thank goodness.
