Black Saturday

Grocery day.  I would not be able to do my First Saturday devotion as it is Black Saturday.

I left the condo around 9:30 AM with my favorite Omega Speedmaster 38mm on my left wrist and my Apple watch on my right.  I changed my Apple watch strap to red strap as the Milanese loop previously attached to it broke.  Wore my YUI Tabi shoes.

There are relatively fewer customers at The Landmark Supermarket.  Thus, we were able to finish early.  It is a long weekend starting Maundy Thursday and some seized this opportunity to go to their provinces.  After paying for the groceries, I left Edgar, the driver to bring our purchases home.  He'll just go back to pick me up later.

I was supposed to go to Mary, Mother of Hope Chapel inside The Landmark but I was not able to do so because the department store now opens at 11 AM.  Thus, I stayed at The Landmark Food Court waiting for 11 AM.  Then an idea popped-up... the Mercury Drug at The Link should already be open; thus, I can buy medicines ✔ to replenish my stock.

Going back to The Landmark, I saw that Glorietta is already open even before 11 AM.  Change of itinerary--will start at the Glorietta for the items in my list.

First stop is at open source by Beyond the Box.  They don't carry Apple watch strap for Series 7 any more.  Ditto for Digital Walker.

I decided to have my lunch first to make up for this disappointment (LOL).  Ate at Yakiniku Like.  

I would think that The Landmark would be open after my lunch, so I proceeded there to visit the Mary, Mother of Hope Chapel.

I was looking for Pure It UF and RO filters.  It is not available in the department store.  Also looked for the Goody pony tail.  There is one but it is multi-colored.  I wanted black.  Also bought a colored shoelace ✔ to put in my on Cloudhorizon 2.  I bought the shoes for men as they are wider shoes.  I wanted to change the shoelaces to make it a little "girly".  LOL

Next, I went to Greenbelt 4 for Tod's.  My niece requested that I check the availability of a specific belt.  Their boss gifted my other niece with said belt.  But when she went to Canada for a business trip, the belt was stolen from inside her luggage at the airport (?).  Her boss wanted to give her again the belt.  It is not available.


Went to Digital Walker at Greenbelt 5 to check for the Apple watch strap.  Not available.  Went to PowerMac at Greenbelt 3.  I was able to buy one--not the Apple Milanese loop (worth PhP5,000.00+) but from another brand (worth PhP2,000.00+). ✔

Checked Muji, which is beside PowerMac.  The Muji at Glorietta is much, much nicer.

I walked my way back to Glorietta to have a Red Mango frozen yogurt.  Ate it at Food Choices.  Then, I proceeded to SM Makati where I was able to buy the black Goody pony tail.  ✔ The water filter is also not available here.

Checked True Value and Automatic Centre for the filter.  Not available.  It is at Abenson where I was able to find one.  Pure It is now Truliva. ✔ But the filters are pre-order, that is, I have to pay and pick the items at a later date.  Did just that.

At the Glorietta 2 Activity Center, there are pop-up stores.  I was able to buy a bracelet with Benedictine Medal at My Journey PH.  I will have it blessed.

At home, prepared the candle I would be bringing tomorrow for the Easter Sunday Mass.

Materials: candle, paper cup; Tools: ballpen, cutter, scissors
