We got back from the road trip early on Friday. The town we go to is about three and a half hours away--close enough to do a day-run, but far enough to (kind of) warrant an overnight stay. Sometimes I wish we went to Milwaukee: that at least is a 5 hour or more trip! It would actually seem worth it to stay the night.
Found some food for the cat. I didn't find too much, but at least there was enough to have a variety for her to taste. Knowing her and her finicky ways, she probably will spit on most of it. I hope she at least likes the Science Diet foods--they are easy enough to find.
I was able to get a couple of tops for C--poor girl still has some of her maternity tops from her first pregnancy: 11 years ago. Old Navy had new stock in at reasonable prices. Thank goodness 'baby doll' type tops are fashionable right now.
Otherwise, I went to Hancock Fabrics and picked up some material on sale--we'll see if I ever feel like actually making something out of it. I just love fabric stores and I buy just to have. Well, you NEVER know when the sewing bug might bite.
I finally bought my last (?) knife. I have been buying some Wusthof brand knives over the last couple of years and I needed one more to complete the collection I wanted. At least I THINK I'm done. Who knows, I just may buy more. I never realized how much help a REALLY good knife is in the kitchen. This is the one I just
bought:
The friends we go to see when we do our road trips are going to an all-inclusive resort just south of Cancun in November. They want us to go with them. I really don't know if it will happen--even though I would LOVE for it to--because it won't coincide with K's long weekend and K has his heart set on going to Vegas this winter. I really, really could see myself sitting in the hot Mexican sun for a week--but, then I really would like to see Elton in Vegas before he quits performing. Damn. Maybe we'll win the lottery and will be able to do BOTH! If only. Anyway, the picture here is from the resort--NICE!
