Wheeeee ! Monday
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: XM 71 - Watercolors (light jazz)

Got to treat myself today. Had errands to run, so while I was out, I checked the in-store McD's, to see if they had the Jack Sparrow doll I wanted. Yes ! Choked down another Happy Meal breakfast, but I was happy. You can see Elphie snuggling her new bed doll on the Home page - isn't he cute ?

I don't know if I'll get one for me or not. It'd be nice to take Dearest Son to McD's and get something to eat for me that doesn't come in a box ! But the less I eat there, the better off I am.

I also scored a quarter-yard of that Cars fabric. It's already cheap-serged and washed, and once it's dry, Fiyero's getting a new shirt. Next time I go there, I wanna take Crissy. They have these glitter-pink sneaker keychains for $2. each. If they fit Crissy, $4. is darn cheap for her shoes !

Only problem to having our doors open on the cooler days is these darn flies. So I remembered the fly swatters this time, and already broke one in. Darn horsefly. It makes me happy that he was the first kill on those things.

Store's already preparing for Back To School. Pretty soon's the best time to stock up on home office supplies from all the sales. Dearest Son only has two more weeks of summer school after this one. I have to check his shot records and inventory his closet. He's outgrown so much this summer !

Oh, and I also posted a larger version of the bed photo to Elphie's page. I'd much rather post different photos, but that poor camera's being pushed as it is. I'll keep trying, though.

I've also located the fabric I want to use for a second go at the 'Dr. Girlfriend' costume for Elphie. Since her hat was too big on the green version, I tried carving a plastic cap smaller this morning. And sliced open my left thumb. Owww. Beloved Hubby was wonderful, and didn't remind me that he'd warned me not a whole minute prior to be careful. I felt stupid enough for everyone in the room ! At least now my purse has spare bandages. I soaked one before it stopped bleeding.

And that's about it for today, so far. After lunch, Son and I have some serious cleaning to do ! He immediately claimed the Happy Meal box and is wandering around with the punch-out eye patch over his right eye. 'Captain Jack' came with some sort of miniature map I'd overlooked, and Son claimed as well. Shoot, even when I keep the toy and share the chow, Son comes out ahead still ! He told 'Elphie' that her doll was cute. My little sweetie. I got him two plastic Cars cups from the party section, so he's happy, too.

Hope you are !
