Went to the movies today (X-Men: Days of Future Past - enjoyed it). Stopped at Taco Bell and Ace Hardware after the movie and then went swimming at the municipal pool.
Was planning on a bean burrito at Taco Bell but saw the vegetarian option for a Cantina Bowl on the menu board and decided to try it instead - it was pretty good.
Cut and pasted from the Taco Bell website:
Flavorful black beans, guacamole made from real Hass avocados, roasted corn & pepper salsa, a creamy cilantro dressing, and freshly prepared pico de gallo, all served on a bed of premium Latin rice.
At Ace Hardware I bought a head for a propane torch ($14.99) a box of 100 metal screws ($9.05) and 10 each of 3 different sized metal screws (.90, 1.00, and 1.10). The propane torch head is to replace a broken one. I'm using it for heating a metal bar so I can form it with a hammer (I'm making a fireplace poker). The screws are for repairing some damage the weather did to my old travel trailer over the winter - i.e wind tore up an awning/cover that goes over the front windows, plus a few other odds and ends (the trailer is permanently parked up on my land).

I love radishes. So while I was at Whole Foods today to buy vitamin D, I also bought radishes. And broccoli. And red grapes. And cherry tomatoes. And a couple of Fuji apples. And a bag of mixed salad. And three prepared salads, two Greek and one Kale and Beet. Plus a box of Panda black licorice chews. Plus two bottles of Honest Tea, Green Dragon, my favorite (which is green tea and passionfruit). Plus a couple bars of chocolate. Also a box of grilled seitan and a bag of peeled carrots. Oh, and a couple cups of Stonyfield Greek yogurt, strawberry. I wanted peach mango (my favorite), but they were out. They were also out of blueberry, which was my second choice. I also got a package of sliced smoked Gouda. Oh, and also a couple of fruit bars called That's It that I saw at the checkout. One is apple and mango and the other is apple and cherries. And that's it, as the package says. No preservatives, 100 calories, 3g of fiber, non-GMO, No fat, gluten free, all natural, kosher, vegan, raw. I hope I like them.
I think that's it. I wanted 2,000 IU sublingual of vitamin D, but they only had 1,000 and 5,000, so I got a package of the 1,000 and I'll double up until I can get the 2,000.
Oh, no, that's not it. I also got a couple bottles of drinking water and two 4-packs of shelf stable vanilla flavored almond milk. For me it's better to have the small juice-box size than opening a large box because I don't use it every day, and it can go bad if I don't use it up fast enough.

Today I bought a post driver (for those who don't know: a closed off weighted pipe with handles for driving metal fence posts into the ground)
(I stole this picture off the net of some guy using one - you slide it up the post and then slam it down)
Paid just under $30.00 for my post driver at the local farm supply, I could have got it at Home Depot for around $25.00 (looked it up online last night) but seeing as it would have cost me $10.00 for the gas to drive to Home Depot I think I got a deal.
The farm supply had the last of this season's chicks for sale. I really wanted to buy them. I miss raising chickens.
However I'm not currently set up to handle them, and chicks are very fragile, you have to be extremely careful with them when they're young or they die. Sometimes they just die for no apparent reason anyway. These were a little older as they were the last of the birds for sale, so they would have been a little sturdier, but I don't have the heat lamp, waterer, or feeder readily available, let alone a coop to keep them in. (There is no way I'm raising chicks inside my house again - been there, done that - cleaned the dust out of everything for six months afterward).
...but there was one Americana that I could tell was extremely curious and intelligent, plus a few of the Sex Links that were looking fairly smart also... I'm awfully tempted.

Not many people know this, but cybermen were originally created by blending humans with rock 'em sock 'em robots. So the handles are necessary for them to easily reattach their heads if the necessity should arise.

No effin' whey!
A new bathroom vanity - ~$150.00 on clearance,
A new light fixture - ~$40.00
and a vent fan - ~$75.00 after a $25.00 discount because the box was damaged.
I bought them to replace the hideous and/or underpowered ones I inherited upon the purchase of my condo. I now have a few over-sized holes to fill in, but darkness and dampness will no longer be a problem in there.

That is painful. Glad you have insurance and I really hope she recovers quickly.
