Errands

Well, yesterday was a productive yet absolutely exhausting day.

I'm really trying to have only one errand day a week, and since I hadn't done my errands in about two weeks, my list had gotten a little out of control. Here's what it looked like:

  • Salvation Army - dropped off a donation
  • Withey's - our health food store
  • Friend's house - dropped off younger sisters
  • Home Depot - got Ransom a box of nails
  • Target - purchased various household necessities and some mother's day cards. Resisted temptation to buy many other things. We had lunch at the food court.
  • Borders - got a birthday gift...and again, WAY too much temptation!
  • Costco - groceries, of course
  • Post Office - didn't actually go in...I forgot the address for my package...felt so stupid!
  • Super One - grocery store...Costco doesn't carry cake flour or organic apple juice.
  • Jo-Ann's - ric-rac for a church project. And we had to look at the new spring fabrics.
All that with Remember and Justice in tow. Honour stayed with Ransom to "help" with the drywall. :)

I left the house at 10:30 AM. Anyone want to guess what time I got home?

Let's just say, it's days like these that make me incredibly grateful for paper plates and Papa Murphy's pizza!

Oh, and Jess here's a link for my newest favorite song...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JV74i4yvcA

It's fun to clean the house listening to this (okay well, dancing instead of cleaning)! Adeline loves it too and sings it with me...don't tell anyone:o).

Ha! Rayia, you tell me a secret and then ask me not to tell anyone...all which you then publish on the worldwide web. Does this sound like an oxymoron? :)

Heather -

I wasn't home until 5:00 PM. And yes, I am grateful that I get to just be home most of the time. :)

Rayia said...

Who are you calling an Oxy, Moron...LOL! Sorry, I couldn't help it! Old family joke!

And to answer your question, yes, it is an oxymoron, and no I don't care!:o)

P.S. What did you think of the song...???

Rayia -

The song...well...I'll just say that it's not my style, but I can see why some [really weird] people like it. ;)

For all those reading these comments...Mallerys show love with sarcasm. :)
