Errand Overflow

---

Today turned out to be a busy day of running various errands.  Our first stop was a result of our visit to the outlet mall two weeks ago.  See, we had a small issue when visiting Kitchen Collection, in that they refused to sell an item at the promotional price that they were clearly advertising in one of their signs in the front window of the store.  The hubby had been thinking about buying the 6-quart stand mixer by Kitchen Aid, and after finding the color we wanted, the cashier proceeded to ring it up, only to find that it was coming up full price.  So we had him call the manager, who still said no.  So, after going over their heads to the regional manager to file a complaint, she made sure that we would indeed get the price that was promised, and she would have the store hold the mixer for us, for as long as we needed.

That same manager who initially told us no ended up being in the store today, and needless to say, he bent over backwards to make sure that we were satisfied, since he'd most likely gotten a stern talking-to from his boss about the whole incident.

 Anyway, after a couple more stops, we ended up at the hospital to see my brother-in-law once more.  He's still kind of in the same condition as he was in on Tuesday when we were last there.  Still very sleepy and out-of-it.  We got 'kicked out' of his room shortly after we arrived, because the doctor was ready to do a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) at that time.  So we hung out in the family lounge for a bit, talking with his (brother-in-law's) wife and my mother-in-law as well.  He's in for a long recovery, but hopefully he will be out of the hospital sooner rather than later, as I'm sure he's ready to go home by now.

And now I'm going to get back into watching Altered Carbon on Netflix.  It's a pretty interesting concept, and a show that I didn't expect to get so involved in so quickly, although I was already confused within the first 5 minutes... 😄
