...with Spencer before we head back to camp...and he's still asleep. Good Heavens! Time to do my version of what Stephieface does to her eldest....
Anyway, before the Kitty and I go in packing pillows, I figured I'd post.
Yes, Cherry, I did move the stuff out of his room, and tonight, it's going back in...so far I've wasted 3 weeks of Spencer not being here. Soon to be 4...sigh. Next weekend he is with his Dad, so I have one more week and then a bit more to work on getting rid of some stuff. And I really ought to since where it lives when not in Spencer's room is where I will be setting up my home office. Gah. I really need to get back into 'going through crap mode' here dammit!
Got a bike yesterday, not a used one at the flea market like I wanted, but a brand new one. Bike man wasn't at the flea yesterday!!! I was soooo disappointed. Kept teasing Spencer that I was going to cry since that was the one and only reason we trekked out to Berkeley was to look at bikes....then I spotted a booth that had all their older display stuff in a bin - $5 each. So now I have 2 pashmina shawls...mine...all mine....not exactly the colors I would have picked and they are a bit faded from hanging in the sun, but they will be good for when I'm in the home office in winter...it can get pretty chilly in here in Dec/Jan...
Anyway, new bike is pretty cool...a bit fancier than I wanted with all kinds of gears and shocks and God only knows what, but they are putting it together for me and with all that, it only cost me $70. Awesome...I love clearance sales.
We also picked up Harry Potter 7 and I am trying so hard not to start reading it...but failing...two chapters down so far. I'll read the rest on BART during the commute. If Spencer had not been here this weekend, I would be more than half way thru...
Spencer spent some of his birthday money too and bought a new skateboard and helmet. YAY! He loves it. We also stopped in at Half Price Books and he found a cake decorating book that shows how to make and use Fondant. He's hooked on Ace of Cakes on Food Network, so wants to check it out and maybe give it a go.
Oh snap!!!! He woke up, now I can't go wake him up all noisy and all. Bummer...
Well, have to go now. We've got to finish packing him up. The other 2 stooges are going to be here in a few hours for our trip back up to camp. It's usually just a one week thing, but the boys wanted to go for two, so we signed them all up for two. Unfortunately, they have to come home inbetween, which is why I picked them up on Friday and am taking them back today. Another parent will pick them up at the end on Friday.
Have a great Sunday everyone. I get to pick up my new flashy bike after I come back from dropping off the boys. Wooot!!!!!
I'm totally going to BART as much as I can this week so I can read HP7. Somehow I arrived and I've yet to crack the spine.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your new bike! $70 for a new bike with shocks and stuff totally rocks!
