To Do List

Ok, looks like I accomplished some of my list.

1. Picked up my shoes at the cobbler and left another three pairs to get repaired. Some crazy reason I am very hard on my shoes so me and Mr. Jimmy are on a first name basis. He doesn't even make me leave deposits anymore. It also helps that I make him a care package every Christmas with lots of treats. Note to self, no more black shoes. I picked up two pairs of shoes that were black and dropped off three more black pairs.

2. Picked up my alterations and dropped off some more. I've been using this new guy and he's fabulous. Language is still an issue(Vietnamese) but he gets it done. He's also fabulous with repairing the holes Gato puts in my sweaters. Long story but it involves him humping and moaning. I've slowly being altering my clothes that doesn't fit exactly right. I'm a petite and alot of my clothes is standard size. Ok, I'm a larger petite but petite means short not just tiny/small.

3. Went to Barnes and Noble with Randy to pick up some books for the Priestley Charter School. I bought two books for them and a bunch for me. The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros and Confederacy of Dunces. The House on Mango Street is one of my favorite books. It reminds me when my sisters and my parents sat around the kitchen table and tried to read it out loud. It didn't last long and lots of comedic relief. We should so have a sitcom based on me and my sisters. BTW, Philleppa Gregory has a new book or at least one I haven't read. The Boleyn Inheritance. And I still haven't seen the Other Boleyn Sister movie.

4. Nap-Well I wanted to walk down to the local park to walk around the monthly craft festival but I put my head down and napped for about a hour and half. That's pretty good Saturday afternoon nap.

5. I did work on cleaning up my mail and bills. Cancelled some stuff(after seeing bills) that I didn't need and straightened up my mail mess. Now all I need is a nice looking shredder.
