Hmm...the last couple days:

Today I bought my meds and then supper for the family...I was thinking Arbys lol
|
I bought dinner ....because I didn't have the strength to fix it and I had a craving for a Ruben....
I bought black dress socks for $1 because the elastic is SHOT in all my others.... The other day, I decided I needed another pair of black dress pants (because I busted the zipper in my favorite pair....) paid $20.00 (I shoulda paid the $7 for a new zipper!!) Last Friday, one of our nurses sent out an email-request for clothes and shoes for one of her patients who has nothing and is currently in the hospital.... from the information I gathered, this patient has lost everything....since I was out sick for part of last week, I emailed back to see if she'd had any responses? (We are a large company with MANY caring generous souls who go out of their way for their patients...) I was VERY surprised to learn she'd had no response.... It bugged me all day.... all cold, rainy, dreary day that makes a person thankful for the clothes on their back, warm dry shoes on their feet and their comfy home to return to after getting out of the hospital. I kicked myself for "purging" most of my old gently-worn clothes before I moved here.... I kicked myself for going shopping for MORE of my own dress pants the other day....instead of just fixing the zipper in the old pair... I kicked myself because at one time, I could have afforded to provide her a week or more worth of clothes.... But today, all I could afford was one day's full outfit and a pair of shoes I could never wear. :( At least she'll have something to come home from the hospital in.... where ever home is and if she even has a home? Maybe, from now on, every time I have the urge to go shopping for myself.... I will put aside a set dollar amount in a mini-savings for times like today? |
I bought lunch at L'Orange Bleue in Soho (well worth it), then a bottle of Armagnac and one of organic gin from Holland at the Astor Place Wine Merchants, and seven sweaters/long sleeve tees at the Japanese department store on Broadway (two cotton tees, two silk and cotton sweaters, and three cotton sweaters, all v-necks (I only wear v-necks and they are hard to find), mostly black, but one caramel, one pale lavender, and one pale pink.
I need some groceries later. Elle* |
Let's see we bought a new bathing suit for water aerobics, some dog treats, underwear, pop tarts, water, and some other things..at Walmart
|
Concert Tickets
For a period of time, I was the coolest mom again... I bought my son two tickets to see his favorite band in concert on June 6th: Bright Eyes. He'll have to have someone go with him that can drive, since he doesn't, or I'll end up taking him... that'll be a 6 hour drive. But hey, he's worth it and I promised him when he was younger that I would take him if they ever got close enough to drive to it. Yea! Score some points for mom!

Bad Baddddd bear...
This morning I stopped at Franklin Bakery on the way to work. Picked up a searing hot cup of java and a chocolate croissant for breakfast.
Then to seal the deal after my name had been chirped out 400 times at work for questions and on the brink of screaming. I take out the big gun from the bakery run. An absolutely definitely criminal chocolate ganache cupcake. Mmmhmm you know the kind. Fresh moist chocolate cake topped with a thick layer of rich milk chocolate frosting and topped with dark chocolate shavings. In the middle....... YES! Heaven personified "Chocolate Ganache" !! People lived and I was blissfully satisfied....:cheer: |
We. Bought. Everything.
:blink: From a water purifier to sandwich wraps to frozen fruit to Tootsie Pops, we bought it all. Meats, grains, fresh veggies, junk, brick a brack, useful things, less than useful things, and potentially useful things. Ours. We snatched it all up like the store was on fire. And now, we're tired and closer to being broke. Ah, the American way. |
Nothing YET....
But LATER.... Wait. I'm not buying. MBE is. Dinner. Alcohol -- maybe. Soda Snacks Did I mention alcohol -- maybe? I'd like to buy other things but I'm quite positive that will end with a slap on the head and a "hell no asshole" |
