2014.11.15 – Saturday Shopping

I slept in until almost 08:00 and it was wonderful! I didn’t do much at all in the morning other than pay a few bills and get ready to go shopping with Lauren and Sean. Lauren has been wanting to go look for clothes for quite some time but it takes her a while to work up to actually going. Today was the day!

We headed out to Clackamas and first grabbed lunch at Native Foods. Good stuff! The peanut butter parfait was too good. Everyone else seemed to have the same idea so there were cars and people everywhere! I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like there closer to Christmas. We went to Khol’s and she found a few things but not all she was hoping for. We tried Nordstrom Rack next and they had a few more things. Total chaos there though. So many people. Next we braved Clackamas Town Center and it wasn’t too horrible. We went to lots of stores and she found things here and there. Still not all she wanted but we were tired and hungry now that it was close to dinner time. I got all of the kids their Hallmark Christmas ornaments so that was out of the way. Time to go home!

We unfortunately got stuck in traffic so it took us quite some time to get home. We finally made it and were greeted by the most delicious smell. Wayne had started making potato soup. It was perfect because the weather is so cold. I ate too much soup along with too much bread. Next up was another movie at Alice and Jason’s house. We sure are getting to watch a lot of movies lately.

I was full from dinner and tired from a long day of shopping so I was sure I would fall asleep immediately. I heated up this fantastic heat wrap Alice gave me as an early birthday present, changed into pajamas and headed across the street. We watched Ghostbusters. It’s a terrible movie with awful special effects but it was definitely entertaining. Bill Murray is always funny and I didn’t fall asleep at all.

Today I learned about this cool cat.
