08.04.02 HAPPY
FRIENDSHIP DAY! Though
I am fortunate enough to forge wonderful friendships with different
groups and individuals, the picture collage above is a tribute to the
group of girls whom I've shared countless incredible and unforgettable
memories, as well as endured painful and turbulent times...with our
bond becoming stronger and deeper with each passing year. For that,
I am eternally grateful and blessed. Today
was a nice relaxing Sunday. Aric and I got up at a decent time. We went
to Nordstrom's at South Coast Plaza to hit up the Anniversary Sale.
I picked up a few cute sundresses (with my upcoming cruise in mind).
Aric, Ashlyn, and I got brunch at the Vie de France Boulangerie counter.
Happiness is a large cheese puff-pastry and a French Vanilla coffee.
Mmmmm! We went from one end of the mall to the other and back. Then
we stopped by Big-K on the way home to get one of those plastic stackable
drawers. Aric and I used the self-checkout...thinking that it would
be faster and easier...until we discovered that the plastic bin was
mising the UPC code and we were unable to scan it. While waiting for
someone to help us, I watched people use other self-checkout stations
and thought how easy it would be to just...er, skip scanning an item
or two and leave. How they can possibly keep an eye on EVERYONE??? I spent the rest of the afternoon cleaning up around the house, doing laundry, playing with Ashlyn, and watching TV. I finally got rid of a ton of empty cardboard boxes. I've been bugging Aric to do it, but he forgets. I swear, if I want anything done around here, I have to do it myself. *huff*...and it's all HIS boxes, too! That guy orders way too much stuff online. Almost everyday we get a package from Ebay or Amazon or whatever. =/ Aric had to work with James tonight and asked if I wanted to go. AGAIN?!! As much as I love hanging out with Sue and Grace, this would make it 3 times in 4 days!....and I just felt like lounging at home. Besides, Ashlyn can run amok here at home and I wouldn't have to worry. Hope you all had a nice weekend!
