Welcome to Dana's blog!

The dentist and my clearance deals!

The dentist went well. As we were getting out of the van, Joey shoveled a cheese cracker in his mouth. I said JOEY!!!!!!!!! You're going to have cheese cracker bits in your mouth! During my cleaning, we talked about my vacation!LOL Mat's other molar did what the last one did so it's going to be repaired on the 30th. I made it the same day as my hair appt so that I'm conserving gas (one 1 hour one way trip vs. doing it twice). But Mat came out and said that and we didn't know if he was yanking our chain or not!LOL  So when I went in for my turn, the dentist confirmed Mat's story and was trying to politely find out if something was wrong w/Joey's mouth. I said, I"m sorry, but he shoved a cheese cracker in before I could stop him. He said, that's fine. I just needed to know what the goo was!ROTFL (as opposed to an infection or something) Then off to get my greek salad and fried mushrooms!

And on the way home, I realized taht DH was going back to work and I was driving past stores that I don't normally have access to, so we went to Old Navy (looking for jeans for Mat) and found 3 shirts for $3. Then to Kohls (I got fed up w/Mat and told him he could be jeanless for all I cared!LOL) and found myself a pretty orangish/melon colored tank sweater. It looks AWESOME under the olive green corduroy jacket my sister gave me. So pretty for fall! That was $9. Then to Marshalls cuz I wanted some black pants to go w/this super cute black fake wrap sweater that I have. The sweater can be worn year round, but I had no bottoms for winter!LOL I got 2 pair of pants to try on and the sales lady wasn't too thrilled about me taking both of the boys in the dressing room. I wanted to say, DO YOU WANT ME TO LEAVE THEM TO ROAM THE STORE????????? She directed me to the very last stall cuz their is a vacant spot (in line w/the other stalls) to the EMERGENCY DOOR. I threatened the boys (namely Joey) w/in an inch of their lives if they sounded that alarm. I couldn't decide which pair, picked one, roamed the store and decided that the super flared legs pants would probably look better w/what the sweater looks like. I had noticed a YOUNG man (late 20s--WHEN DID THAT BECOME YOUNG???????????LOL) keeping tabs on me. I hadn't seen him and decided the coast was clear so we head to the check out (nevermind that after 3 store, the boys were clearly ready to go home!LOL). Sure enuf, there he is in line. But I didnt' notice cuz Mat wanted to push teh cart and nearly knocked over something weaving thru their line makers (that's the technical term!LOL). Ok, fine. I noticed what he had on had the security tag (the plastic one that they have to remove) on and was thinking that surely he wasn't going to just try to lift it and thought maybe he put it on and simply forgot (YES IT REALLY DOES HAPPEN!LOL). He turns and asks me if it looks Ok. I'm thinking DUDE! IT'S A NAVY ZIP UP SWEATSHIRT. PRETTY HARD TO GO WRONG, YK? I was soooooooooooooooooo close to saying, well as long as you can truly afford this and aren't simply charging it on your CC, it looks great. But I wasn't sure that would be well recieved!LOL So I said it looked fine. He said, no, really does it look Ok. ARE YOU DEAF?!?!?!? SOrry, but I just have very little patience w/men like this. And by now I was thinking that if he IS a college student (it's a college town) and likes older women, I WAS NOT GOING TO BE HAPPY IF HE"S HITTING ON ME!ROTFL!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know what I said, but he got the point that I was not up for chitchat and paid and went on his way.

We came home, threw Joey in bed and I'm on my way. I don't know when DH will be home. I don't know how much time he lost going to the dentist.
