Banking Sleep for Shopping

Having slept for about ten hours last night, I had enough energy stored up that Lisa and I could go to Reno to do grocery shopping at the stores that aren't open round-the-clock like WinCo Foods. It's a pity I forgot my coupons, or I would have had triple points at Raley's, which would have been good as it's been close to a month since we last were there and thus the grocery bill was large. Thinking of it in weekly terms made it feel less bad, though, and of course we just don't eat out at restaurants the way we once did, so it all balances out.

On the way home, we refueled. Gas is a lot more expensive than it was the last time we filled the tank a month ago. That's another reason for doing fewer-but-bigger grocery runs; they use less fuel.
