Went shopping with Elizabeth on Tuesday……..she is needing/wanting some new things before school starts and we were also looking for things we might take on vacation with us. Struck out on lots of those but she did find a few new things to add to her wardrobe for school. We had fun but were very tired at the end of the day.
Tried on lots of things but not much of it worked and that is not always fun. I had looked for a travel mug at Target last week when I was with Stacy and they didn’t have it. But I saw it yesterday & got it! It wasn’t what I was shopping for, I don’t really need it and it’s hard to justify when I don’t drink coffee all that much. But I do take a mug to sunday school every week with coffee or cappuccino & that’s usually my breakfast on Sundays. So it’s nice to have a fun new one.
Don, on the other hand, got something new on Tuesday also! And Stacy should know the end of that line from a song that I used for my title! So post your answer. 😀
He traded David’s old truck in & got this new silver/gray one! It is a company vehicle so I shouldn’t be jealous, but I have to say I’m jealous of something on the inside………it has a Bose sound system and, XM Satellite Radio! One of the first stations I scanned to was a Broadway station! Yeah, that so goes with a pickup truck but I want that! He drove us in it to go eat supper and I kept it to that station. Now the title of another country song I found will fit this situation perfectly……….”She Wants to Drive My Truck” Lately anytime we go anywhere, he wants to take his truck, which I don’t always like; I would rather go in my car because his was too high to climb in. Now he has a step on the side and this fun new toy/radio, so I will want to go in his truck all the time now! I’m sure the new will wear off and he will get it dirty and filled up with all his work stuff and golf clubs and then I probably won’t like being in it but for now, it’s way cool!
But I don’t know on the shopping thing……….hmm, travel mug, truck; travel mug, truck………I might have come out on the short side yesterday!
an update: Yes Stacy knew the song! Brad Paisley song, “holdin the keys to a brand new Chevrolet” is the remainder of that line from a song called “Mud on the Tires”

YIPEE! Look at that shiny new truck. Can’t wait to see it, I bet it’s great. I’m jealous of the Bose system and that XM satellite radio too. I’ve been wanting to get Tim one, but he doesn’t really want it. Which is understandable, he doesn’t drive that much and has almost no commute. I can’t wait to hear yours!
I’m so glad you found the travel mug, did you go to another Starbucks or the other Target? Yeah, I’m so glad you didn’t get that other one last week and got the one you wanted!
Oh, and the song should be “Mud on the Tires” by Brad Paisley. I have that one and love it. “I’ve got some big news, the bank finally came through, and I’m holding the keys to a brand new Chevrolet.” 🙂 Yeah, I bet Don is sooooo excited!

You got it! I absolutely knew when I found it and it was Brad Paisley that you would know the song!
