Shopping

I know you are probably wondering why I would write on shopping, seeing as I cannot stand shopping. I only go to the mall when forced to, like School shopping and we really only hit Old Navy, JC Penney's and maybe the Children's place. But today holds something rare and fun in going shopping.

So I was planning on taking Hannah to Steve and Barry's in Burbank tomorrow (which we still may do) but my only reason for going would be to pick up some cheap clothes, I don't care if they get ruined. You see Hannah and I are going on a field trip next week and we will work eat and sleep on a boat all while pretending to be in the 1800's. So we will be long haired sailors! We will be wet and tired and hopefully we won't get crabby although they fit together so well. Thus the need for clothes.
She needs a coat, not tattered pants (which I cannot understand why she cant wear jeans that are meant for working), and some boots. So among all that this week has to offer, I am trying to prepare myself so as to not get behind in anything and forget things that are of utmost importance, like snacks for Football boys on Monday (yikes that is not even on my grocery list), see the need for preparedness and lists?! My so smart husband said to me, why don't you look at a thrift store, and I would straight up plant a huge kiss if we weren't on the phone, because that is more of a place I would rather go to it's always such fun, it's like a treasure box! I am not kidding, I truly enjoy thrift stores. It is a place that is hard to take a list into and follow, it's all so exciting, so many things need to be paroozed! Now that my husband has given me hope in this shopping trip, I must add that this is not the only place for this busy mom to go.
Grocery shopping is included - Trader Joes, Vons and Costco. But first I will hit the thrift shop.
Thank you for listening to me rant on such a meaningless topic but it had been a while since my last post. Please forgive the bad grammar and run on sentences, but I am trying to run out the door. And thanks Babe for giving me the idea of the thrift store, I love you!

wait till you see the red, grey and black plaid dress pants I scored at Value Village! I wore them to a Christmas party last night and EVERY woman wanted to know where I got them. Three said it must have been Nordstroms! HA!
