Somehow it managed to be a pretty good day. I accomplished some cleaning, and also got out of the house!
I did laundry, dishes, cleaned the bathroom, and other assorted straightening. I got a bag of trash from the basement and found more items to donate.
Michelle bought me dinner at El Rodeo. I have terrible spelling. I had 2 hard beef tacos, chips and guacamole, a beef enchilada, and a chile con queso with raspberry iced tea. Everything was perfect. A random other waiter kept bringing another tables items to us, which grew funnier the more that it happened. There was also a bit of confusion at the register when some lady was trying to give the cashier her phone #. I don't think she could understand that he was not interested in having it.
I did manage to make it to Salvation Army and purchased quite a bit of books for about $11. Here is the list:
HG Wells - The Time Machine
L Frank Baum - The Road to OZ
L Frank Baum - Ozma of OZ
Frances Hodgson Burnett - The Secret Garden
Virginia Wolf - The Pargiters
The Laurel Poetry Series 3 books with works by Dryden, Shelley, Wordsworth
Charles Dickens - A Tale of Two Cities
William Shakespeare - Twelfth Night
David Balsinger and Charles E Sellier Jr - The Lincoln Conspiracy
Mark Twain - Tom Sawyer
Louisa May Alcott - Little Men
Taylor Caldwell - This Side of Innocence
Not a bad list at all. I'm so addicted to books it's not even funny. I am going to need so many shelves.
Friday Will will be here!!! Yes, I'm giddy happy excited. I cannot wait. I miss him too much. I need to get this house sold so I can move. Not to mention that I'm dreadfully bored living here. And it's also annoying to be living in a house that has so many empty and unused rooms. I think we are going to mainly be staying in and be selfish with our time on this visit.
Michelle is going to see Dave Matthews Band tomorrow and she is all hyped up to go. She will be going with Meghan which is good as I have no interest in seeing that band at all. But that means more time for video games! But I also have to go to bed early because of work Thursday. Blargh. As I told Michelle, I don't miss working, I just miss the paychecks.
Off to bed, so I can get up early and finish the cleaning.
