Some more random mutterings..

So aside from my sister craziness yesterday.. I had a pretty good day. Got up.. I was gonna go shopping with a co-worker in the morning, but she had to babysit her neice, so that was a no-go.. But that was okay.. Jeff and I went and got breakfast and Dunkin Donuts.. I like going out with him.. because when we are home together, which is usually late at night after we've both worked all day.. Its too easy to just sit and stare at the TV and/or our laptops.. and we rarely have good conversations.. I don't think we had any super deep conversations at Dunkin Donuts.. but its nice to just chat.. The night before, we also sat outside together and had some drinks and we also really got to talk with no distractions.. I love that boy.. I also will mention that I'm super proud of him. He's lost probably close to 30lbs.. and he looks fabulous.. I am also the slightest bit jealous of him. I feel like that commercial with the cartoon woman for the diet pill for women.. "My husband switched to diet soda and lost 30lbs.. I lost 1".. Except he really is trying a lot harder than I am to eat better..

Anyway, we had to go to Valu to look for parts to fix the bathroom drain.. We got some stuff but none of it worked.. I don't know what we're gonna do about it.. Hopefully my superhero Nick can help, but he's been very busy lately with stuff with his OWN life.. :) .. So we MIGHT have to call a plumber.. (not my idea of a good time)..

After that, Jeff fixed the toilet leak.. That was an easy fix.. and I went and did some shopping. Went to walmart and got the basics that I always buy at walmart.. Cat food, soda, garbage bags.. Then I went to the mall.. I love to wander around Barnes and Noble.. I rarely buy books there, but I do like to look at them.. I always looks at the miscarriage/infertility section.. (Did you ever notice there are a lot more books about Menopause and breast cancer than there are about Miscarriage and Infertility?).. I always scan them for things that are of interest to me.. I like to read about herbs to help fertility, and to see if any of them have any info on PAI-1 (they never do).. I also looked for that book I was trying to think of from a month or so ago "In the Country of Last Things".. they didn't have it.. I scanned the shelves for some other novel that might interest me because its been YEARS since i really read a book.. And i would like to start.. Any suggestions? I'm not sure I want to read Chick-lit.. but i do want to start with an easy read...

Then it was next door to Famous Footwear.. it was actually the easiest shoe shopping trip ever. I walked in the door, the CLOSEST pair of shoes to me were perfect for new work shoes for me and they were only $30. Cute, huh?
.

Then I checked out Aeropostale to see if they had any cheap strappy tanks.. They did.. $10.. but I decided to save my money for the bath and body works sale. Good thing too, since they have the wallflowers on sale for $5 each. I bought 5 refills, and one starter kit. And a lip gloss for $2.
I love the wallflowers..

Then I headed home.. and it was time to leave to go to my sisters craziness.. but after the haircut I came home and some yummy wine.. I think its my new Favorite - Loosen Bros "Dr.L" - Riesling.. I'm kinda bummed that it has the screwtop bottle, but now my OLD favorite Relax has a screwtop bottle too, so I think I just need to get over it.. Side note.. My local liquor store now carries RELAX in MAGNUM bottles!! whoo hoo!!
