Not much to report today as Evie was still feeling poorly. We therefore changed our plans and Rachel, Lola and I went shopping while Scott stayed behind with Evie. We discovered a Hobby Lobby about half an hour away so started there. They have so much stuff in there that it takes ages to look at everything. We hadn’t been in long before we found an aisle with lots of things that Scott would like so Rachel was busy taking photos. The only problem was that we had no WiFi so she couldn’t send them. By the time we had finished in the store we were hungry so went for food and WiFi to send photos. We then went to Dollar Tree where there was lots of school things for Lola and for Rachel. A quick stop at Joann, another craft store, and then Rachel decided Scott needed to look in Hobby Lobby. They don’t open on Sundays so we went back to the house where I took over looking after Evie and they returned to the store coming back with numerous purchases. We are staying in an Airbnb house so it was better for Evie as there were sofas for her to lie on and lots of space, much better than a hotel room.
