The Final Countdown

Being off from work is so much more fun when you know you have an income and can spend money. For the last six months I have stayed at home and tried to find things to keep me busy during the day because basically, without an income I couldn’t really go out shopping or do anything… and this winter has just been hell because its too cold to do anything outdoorsy.

So, I had a really good time yesterday shopping. I mean some of it is because I never shop and it was really nice to just spend some money on myself for a change. I spent a lot of money… but mostly at Victoria Secret. 🙂 But, I did take advantage of some really nice sales at some other places and I think I’m set with enough clothes to get me through for a while. Today, I need to head to LL Bean to return a $100+ coat I bought last year… They said they will always take it back and basically I didn’t think I would ever return it, but the zipper keeps getting stuck and now its ripping the seam. When a piece of clothing is that expensive its good to have the option to always return it. Victoria Secret said they do the same thing.

I got the list of "To Dos" from my boss. He’s been thinking about what I can do for a while I guess. LOL The list is very long but I’m sure that a lot of it is going to be second nature to me and I’m sure that some will be a fun learning experience. I’m honestly really looking forward to having some challenges again to keep my brain working.

Wish me luck. I’ve just got one full day left and then I’ll be part of the working world again.

ryn: I saw a true story about a mother who tried to cure her gay son; he committed suicide. I don’t believe my son is sick…how can he be cured? Like Lady Gaga says…Born this way Baby! 🙂 I’ve missed so much of my friend’s lives around here, I’m just picking up from where I came back in…but I’m glad to be back. Sounds like you’re doing good! 🙂 (((hugs)))
