Bus tour

We had a city bus tour today. It was pretty neat really. And if you lived in town a BARGAIN! Students ride free and you can get a pass for $1/day! But they took us thru the bus wash (in the bus!LOL) and other stuff.

So that's why we went to town!LOL I got up and worked out and got everyone semi moving. Mat lost his nerf toys for the next 2 days thanks to his self distractions. UGH! But then I called my neighbor to tell her about the Wiimote charges for $22 at Costco. She told me of something that I needed to call someone else about so I got that done. I found out that gas was going back up (to $2.19) so I pulled in and got it for $1.97. Then we cashed in a free bfast sandwich (I did not get bfast so it worked out well!LOL). After the tour, I scoured Hobby Lobby. It's just not cheap unless you have a coupon!  Then we did TONS of things. ONe of which was go to several stores trying to find 6-6.5 men's shoes! We found some boat style shoes at Target on clearance for $15 in size 7 (mens!) and they actually fit Mat pretty good. I was having cardiac arrest! But Joey wore a 12 in skates last May, 13 in October and a 1 yesterday (this is why we don't buy roller skates, altho I'd love to find me a pair on clearance or garage sale!) Also at Target, I bought myself a cute $5 Christmas Tshirt, and a nice athletic shirt ($2.48) and a cute brown plaquet shirt ($2.48). It's not as cute as the brown plaquet that it's replacing, but for that price, it will more than suffice. I promised the boys after shoes that we'd eat so we tried the Rally's .79 menu. Then to the grocery, where I dropped a bundle. But I now have the turkey, sweet potatoes and french fried onions for Thanksgiving.;) Lastly, to spend some bday money. I now own a Vera Bradley Morgan in Cafe Latte (a brown and black purse!LOL). Mat wanted to go to the book store while we were at the mall so we did that. We left at 8:45 and got home at 3:15. A long, but very productive today. Next week, we only have Mat's youth on Monday night and an event at the cultural center on Saturday. So we'll be home Tues-Friday ALL DAY!
