dear diary,

I haven’t felt very bloggy today. Not sure why. Matt has been home all day … and Amanda. I spent the morning highlighting (she wanted it really blonde) and trimming Amanda’s hair. Picked up a little around the house, fed Izzy lunch and then headed out to buy some groceries and to return the dress. I bought a blue dress and a pink dress. Amanda and I both tried both dresses on. I liked the blue better and almost wished I had a prom to go to! Amanda chose the pink dress. She had already gotten everything to go with the pink dress (you know, the one she couldn’t bend in). I wish I had taken pictures of us trying them on, we got a good laugh out of it and Bailey did too when he came into my room and found his mom in a prom dress :) … Okay, so I take back the blue dress and there is a really long line, so I wait and wait and finally it’s my turn. I get the receipt out and take the big dress out of the garment bag… the lady asks for my credit card to apply credit to. I start looking, then digging… then realize that Amanda took my debit card earlier in the day and hadn’t returned it! I couldn’t return it without the card (well, unless I want a $280 gift card… which I didn’t). So, I packed up the dress and headed to Sam’s. Amanda met me there on the way to visit Lorenzo and gave my card back. I head back to return the dress. Again. Another line, but success. Yay! I headed to Walmart for a few more groceries because some things you just can’t buy at Sam’s. I did, however, buy:

sugar snap peas, broccoli florets, spring mix lettuce, red golden potatoes #10, 10 pack of individual pepperoni pizzas (bailey), big bag of tortilla chips, big bottle of pace picante sauce, triple pack of silk soy milk – vanilla (izzy), shaved black forest ham, hoagie buns, and whole wheat bread.

Aren’t you glad I shared my purchases? I told you I’m not in a bloggy mood, I’ve resorted to listing the things I bought at Sams.

I came home and Matt wanted to go get gyros for dinner. We did. I didn’t really eat much of mine. I am down 15 pounds now.

good thing: sonic cherry coke with extra ice

bad thing: long lines

    Annie,
    no wonder you aren’t in a bloggy mood after having to wait in line – twice !
    I bet Amanda looks pretty in her pink dress, especially with the new highlights in her hair.
    Congratulations on having lost the 15 pounds !

    I’ve not been in a blogging mood either. For me, I think it’s a lack of sleep, which I plan to remedy this weekend (not sure when, but sometime this weekend). :)

    Congrats on the 15 pounds!

    I would ABSOLUTELY love to see a picture of you and Amanda trying on the prom dresses…and Bailey’s expression when he saw you wearing one! Haha, so cute! :)

    Sometimes Lauren forgets to return my debit card, too…or my medical insurance card if she has taken it to a doctor appointment! It can make things pretty awkward! Sorry you had to wait in line TWICE!

    I am so proud of you for losing 15 pounds! WOW! :)
