I decided after a while that I was going to get up and go on a hunt for flowers. Making Memory flowers. I got dressed, even put on a rain coat for good measure. I should have known the coat would be toasty, my Justin the survivalist. I sweated like a pig, but at least I would have stayed dry if* it had started raining like it looked like it was going to. ha. ;) I walked to Michaels. They didn't have what I wanted but I managed to walk around long enough to find a few things to buy. I was disapointed but still on a hunt.
Starbucks was my next stop. I had been tasting it since I thought of leaving for my walk and couldn't wait for that first sip. I ordered and went to wait. The "barista" made me an iced. Why people assume because its a nice day I am going to want an iced one, I don't understand. I didn't ask for one, she didn't ask me, I assumed it would be regular, because after all it is coffee. But, their mistake NOT mine. They corrected it, but I still was appologizing for it and left feeling like a brat. I wish people wouldn't make me feel like that. Fortunately, I was quick to forget after a few steps and sips of my hot caramel Macchiato. ;)
I walked to Target, swearing they had the Making Memory boxed flowers I had been on the hunt for, but either they had sold out or I was thinking of a differnt store. Either way, I didn't get my flowers and buttons I so wanted. I looked up and down the scrapbook isle but nothing appealed to me.
I then decided to do a little bit of secret EtotheAtotheStotheTtotheEtotheR shopping, but it was just window, I walked away with a movie (TWILIGHT) and some celophane bags and an RX. Nothing much interesting.
Then.. I decided to stop in ross to see if they had anything. I hadn't bought Easter dresses for Darienne and I and I wanted something simple, something that matches the boys and something that wasn't very expensive. I found it. I still have to get us shoes. I found a simple yellow sun dress paired with a cropped white cardigan.
Then I found an apron.. :::insert glorified music:::: I have been looking for an apron for years... I had an antique apron that was my great grandmothers that I used but that is now put up. I have looked and looked and I didn't want to spend very much on one, and since I am sewing machine incapable its never been a possiblity. I am sooo happy ->
My journey to the outside world was an interesting one. I am seriously sheltered from most and to see the socialy degraded is really hard for me. There was a particular couple who were spun out on some cheap drug, oblivious of anyone else, and fighting over money, that had two teenage sons, who were following in their footsteps.
I told you my thoughts were random....
