What I Did On My Spring Vacation
I may actually make some of my students write this very essay on Monday. Here's some of what I did. Monday I had my chiropractor appointment. Afterward I went to Half Price Books and bought 2 books and 5 CD's. I found the sound tracks to West Side Story, Showboat, Fiddler on the Roof, and South Pacific. On Tuesday I took my niece Jessica out for lunch and we chatted for couple hours. I also did some shopping! I went to Kohl's with 15% off and bought a rug, a shirt, earrings, sandals and something else. I spent just over $50 so I got a $10 cash coupon, which I used on Friday to buy some new sunglasses! Then I went to DSW and used a $20 off $50 coupon. I found the Eastland shoes I love in BLACK!! They were on sale for $60 marked another 30% off and I also bought some Teva sandals on sale and scored another bargain!! Wednesday I drove down to Northfield to get a cut and color. Thursday I went to the mall with Bob's gift certificate from work and bought him shirts and pants for work. On the way out of Macy's I stopped at the Origins counter. The dermatologist told me to get GOOD sunscreen for my face. I ended up buying one of their moisturizers with sunscreen and a serum with natural bleaching agents. Laser treatments on my sun damaged spots are expensive, so I thought I'd try something that cost less. Still on those 2 items I spent just under $100. She did give me a free sample of the moisturizer for my purse and another sample of their cleansing scrub. She could tell I don't exfoliate! Friday I spent at home cooking a turkey, taking it off the bone, and boiling the carcass for soup. I also made Ole some homemade dogfood, which I took a picture of. I also took a picture of me and my sun damaged spots. We'll see if that serum makes a difference in a month or 2 :) Check out my scarf. Grandma O. gave me some square silk scarves, about 20" by 20" years ago. I've been wearing them the last year a lot. I'm not a fashionable sort, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't like to be!! So I didn't accomplish too much, but I had a chance to relax, read a little bit and walk the dog. Ready for work tomorrow...........
