Fun day today, got to go have lunch with my friend Wendy. Wendy, if you’re reading this – I had a great time and I’m sorry if I kept you too long! I just had such a good time talking and visiting (we’ll have to do it again sometime!)
Lunch was the brightest spot in my otherwise busy day. I left home mid-morning and went to the new Steinmart and big Target out on Lakeland Drive. When I walked in the women’s clothing section at Steinmart, I thought I was in a time warp back to the 80’s. Everywhere I looked, there were pinks and greens and bright tropical colors. Really reminded me of that preppy phase I have already lived through once. What’s it with fashion and all these cyclical phases? Saw some cute tops for spring and summer, but I had a sweater and coat on and was not in a mood to try on summer clothes! So, I walked down to Target and found some maternity pants Wendy was looking for (couldn’t find them at our regular Target). Got those, then left to meet Wendy at Applebees. We split an appetizer (some kind of potato chip/bacon/cheese thing that sounded really good on the menu but was not as good once it came to our table!), and then had an Oriental Chicken Salad. Very good, I would eat that again in a heartbeat! We talked and visited a long time, then Wendy left to go visit her mom.
I debated going back down Lakeland to Dogwood to shop, but decided to head back to Madison, and I stopped at the Walmart. I had found some Neutrogena stuff on clearance in Walmart on Monday (a 3 step system, exfoliating wash, eye creme and SPF15 all-day moisturizer) for 5 bucks and bought one. I asked Gail if she would be interested in it, and she said she was, so I headed back to get one for her before they were all gone. Also picked up a few groceries. Already working on next week’s menu! 🙂
Tim and I went walking when he got in, it was nice and chilly out tonight. We had a light supper since he weighs in tomorrow at work, then we settled in for my favorite night of TV. The new Survivor (Pulau) started tonight, along with new episodes of CSI and Without a Trace. I was really looking forward to Survivor – I am in a pool at one of my scrapbooking boards and was randomly assigned a player. Well – my player turned out to be Johnathan, the first one voted off the island. Darn, now I can’t play! Oh well, will have to find someone else to root for now.
All in all, a busy, but very good day! 🙂
