Collected Thoughts

Happy Mother's Day (early)! Mom and I celebrated today and it was a really nice day. We drove down to the coast, went shopping, she got new earrings (for herself), got 2 pairs for her sister, and she took an earring down there to see if she could find another pair like it (because she lost one) and the shopkeeper/jewelry maker told her he'd make her a replacement. She picked out a pair of earrings for me to buy her and then I shooed her out of the store while I picked up some other stuff.

We had lunch. It was amazing. She had a grilled cheese sandwich -- Cheddar, Provolone, Swiss with tomato, bacon, thick slice pickles and red onion on rye bread. I had soup and salad. The soup was Potato Leek made with bacon and some kind of cheese that starts with a B --it's a herbed goat cheese.

Plus we bought books and stopped by the beach. It was fun.

Except this morning I knocked over a tiny bottle of perfume (which I got free) and it broke so I reeked of perfume most of the morning and I couldn't get it cleaned up before we left so my house reeks of perfume. I opened the windows and watched the Sabres beat the Senators and the house has aired out. Except the bathroom, I forgot to run the fan.

I also did a little shopping from home and got these two things from Lane Bryant -- this skirt and this top , but in Tawny Brown.

And I'm thinking about bidding on: this outfit, or these skirts , or this top or maybe all of it.
