Still dark outside!
Yesterday I got up early and went off with Van and the kids. They were going to drop me off at the mall. On the way there, Zach got sick. Poor little guy. Van had to pull over on the Whitemud Freeway which is kind of a scary thing. He was okay after that though.
When I got out at the mall, I went into the mall and walked around for a bit. After a couple of minutes though I realized that there was a problem. That morning I'd put on a sporty kind of bra, one that I didn't wear very often. It was causing quite nasty problems in a couple of delicate places if you get my drift. What to do? Well, I was in the mall, so I went over to Sears to see if I could possibly get something else to wear. I was lucky enough to find a couple of things in or near to my size, so I tried them on. While I was at it, I left the other bra off. I ended up leaving Sears with a new leisure bra, some undies and a really nice pair of pajamas. So, all's well that ends well! I popped into the washroom a couple of minutes later and put on the new leisure bra. I know, I know, too much info!
I had a late breakfast, early brunch at A&W. It was okay. The onion rings were good. Then I set about finding the bus stop. I went for a hike, but finally found it. Southgate's transit area is currently under construction as the LRT will be extended to the mall.
I headed downtown. I thought wistfully of stopping at Whyte Ave, but didn't. I went to the old Edmonton Center. I did a lot of walking around. I thought about going to a movie, but the one I wanted to see had already started and another one that would have been okay was starting NOW. I did more shopping. I got some little things for me, but nothing too major.
I headed back to the Southgate around 5:30 and called Vanessa. She agreed to pick me up around 6:30 which she did. On the way home we all stopped into a grocery store. Zach was asleep in the cart, but Katie and I had a good time looking around. I got myself some whole wheat pita bread. Yum. Japan has finally adopted bagels, but they still haven't gotten pita bread. Sigh.
At home, it was getting late, so I made Kate and I a ham and cheese omelette. It wasn't bad. We had our dinner, then I cleaned up my cooking utensils. Van has a dishwasher, so I didn't have to do the plates.
After that, I was quite exhausted. I was supposed to watch a movie with everyone, but I needed to do laundry, so I came downstairs and did it. I fell asleep between loads! I loaded up the washing machine, slept until it was done. Repeat! I woke up finally with the dryer having stopped. It was nearly midnight so I decided to stop for the night. I went to sleep.
This morning I woke up around 6. Argh. I am so not a morning person. I started up the dryer again and the computer too.
Today I'm taking Vanessa and the children to see Body Works. I'm a little nervous that Katie won't like it. It's quite expensive and some people are disturbed by it. Heck, I'm worried that _I_ might be disturbed by it. After that, Kate wants to do something else, but I'm not sure what. We might go shopping or to see a movie if there's anything playing that's appropriate.
Anyway, that's it for me for now. I'll probably update tomorrow. Bye!
