Wow! You wake up one morning to realize that you just poured the last of the three gallons of milk you bought on the last grocery trip. Where did the time go? What all have I done in the EIGHT days since I posted last?! Glad you asked. I love a list.
1. I went to a wedding. Some good friends got married on Saturday and HH was a groomsman. The rehearsal dinner was at a fancy house where, it is rumored, the upstairs bathroom was bigger than most apartments. Of course I cannot verify that. I refused to look. Big fancy bathrooms in big fancy houses make me cry. But the fajitas were AWE-wait for it-SOME!!
2. Having a late-evening rehearsal dinner followed by an afternoon wedding meant that both kids spent the night at my folks’ house. Which meant that I had all of Saturday morning to treasure hunt at TJ Maxx and Ross. TJ Maxx was a bust, but I found two dresses at Ross. One was only $12.99. The other – marked down to $16.99 with an original retail of $174. I know. I even saved the tags. (I have a weird thing about keeping tags of the really great bargains I find. I still have a tag for a $345 DKNY blazer that I got at a sample sale for $7.)
3. We decorated our Christmas tree. I scaled back on the ornaments this year. Why create more opportunities for yelling at Woggie? We hung his ornaments low and he’s allowed to get those off and play with those as he pleases… which equals very little tree drama.
I also haven’t forgotten that I still have a giveaway for which am supposed to be choosing a winner. I haven’t forgotten (ok, maybe I forgot a little) but the whole hacker, bloggy move thing has caused my comments to drift into some sort of black hole. I am currently fishing in my Gmail for all of them, so I can properly choose a winner. And to make up for the debacle, I’m tossing around the idea of “Bee’s Botched Blog-giveaway Bonanza” or something like that… maybe after the new year.
