Taking a break from painting

After we painted the living room, dining room, entry way and family room/kitchen, we decided to take a break from painting before starting on the office and the 3 bedrooms.

The last couple of weeks we've just been busy with normal everyday domestic stuff. Last week we had dinner at the Ay! Jalisco Mexican Café here in Sebastian. We ordered the Queso Dip and decided to try their beef and chicken combination Fajitas for two. The fajitas were pretty good, however they weren't sizzling on the skillet when they were served. We really miss our favorite Mexican restaurant Mexican Connection in Dothan!

Last week our doctor's office had a patient appreciation pizza lunch at one of the pavilions at Riverview Park here in Sebastian. Mike and I went and met some of the medical staff and Dr. Cheryl Winchell. We have only had blood work done and haven't seen Dr. Winchell yet. We sat with a nice couple from Fellsmere and visited while we ate lunch. The husband is retired but works sometimes as house painter and gave us some good information about painting the stucco on our house (next year we plan to paint the outside of our house).

Today we drove down to the Humane Society's adoption center where they were having a sale on items they had brought in from their thrift stores in Sebastian and Vero Beach. I bought a few books at the sale and then we went into the adoption center and looked at the cats and dogs. We were impressed with how nice the adoption center is. It was hard, but we did manage to leave without adopting anyone! We left a small donation before leaving.

After leaving the Humane Society, we drove down to Vero Beach to do some shopping at Best Buy and to get Tinker's dog food at Petco. While we were in Petco, we spoke with the representative from Blue Buffalo dog food. After comparing the current dog food Tinker is eating and Blue Buffalo, we decided to try the Blue Buffalo.

We decided to have lunch before driving back home and stopped at Applebee's. We ordered onion rings and we each had a basket of chicken tenders. On one of our previous visits to Applebee's, we both had ordered the chicken tenders platter and we couldn't eat all of the food, so we brought some home with us. We've eaten at the Vero Beach Applebee's about 3 times now, and the food has always been good.
