All The Things

TW was hoping we were only going to go to the library and the Dollar Tree today. Hahahaha. She blanched when I listed all of the places we were going. In order:

– Post Office
– Bank
– Library
– PetSuppliesPlus
– Dollar Tree
– Staples
– Ace Hardware

She got a little excited about the Ace, until I told her we were NOT BUYING ALL THE THINGS and I didn’t even want to look at ALL THE THINGS. It was touch & go for a few minutes but I did actually get her out of the store in less than ten minutes with the two things that were on our list. (Related: Why is dirt so freaking expensive?)

The most annoying bits were the Post Office (duh, but also my fault because I filled out the customs form incorrectly the first time, sigh) and the Staples (where the people are very nice but they charged us more for the breakfast sandwich maker than the guy quoted TW — so we had to exchange it and let him ring it back up at the price he quoted her.) Good news from Staples is that our store is not scheduled to close. Thank god. I need my free paper and batteries, though it’s been awhile since I got free batteries, darn it.

Because we did all of the running around today and because there’s nothing on sale at CVS or Walgreens that I want tomorrow, we are HOME for the duration of the weekend. TW and RJ are happily making a mess in my kitchen and I’ve got a load of laundry in the washer.

I have big plans to get some more spring cleaning done — and also to maybe watch something that is not Dawson’s Creek… more on that later… maybe.
