Today is errand day.
Revolves around banking and then buying – and focus on travel north.
We are openning some new accounts to better manage what we have. Since they want us both to sign, Saturday bank hours are helpful, but limited.
Being generally green – we walk – return a DVD, post some letters and the bank (one that has been recently bought out by Chase). Open the account, figure how to split the money we already had in an old account, blah, blah, blah – when do the automatic withdrawals happen, what checks are outstanding, blah, blah, blah need a check for the next big contribution to education – finally out. On to Trader Joes for goodies to go north.
North – did we get any funny money while we were at the bank? No! Did we get money to fuel the trip? No! How much longer are those banking hours, and when will football traffic really hit (Notre Dame – so it probably won’t matter how badly the home team is playing).
Not quite so green as we need to get to the bank so we won’t be quite destitute in the great white north. !$100 gets us $120! Unexpected. I thought the teller had said $100 in twenties, not $120. Then, since we have the car now, fuel for both the car and Carl, and a pumpkin for soup on Wednesday.
Still a bit of afternoon left – time to do some more things that need to be done. Tomorrow will be travel fun. (Main reason for the trip is to take the girl her absentee ballot, let her vote and we bring it back.)
