Another Tuesday

So last night James sends KK a message asking her if she would like to meet someone. He, apparently, has finally listened to me (only took him 5+yrs) and went and got himself a girlfriend. Good for him. So long as he is happy that is all that matters.

What pisses me off is the fact that my family knew and lied to me about it. I really don't care if he has a new woman, or man, or monkey in his life. So why lie to me? And my mother is the one who is constantly harping about how she HATES liars etc. SMDH - I swear I will never understand that woman.

I was supposed to meet up with a friend this morning but decided to cancel. Instead I met my cousin at my dad's garage so he could look at her jeep and we took off for the day. She got to experience first hand what one of my "days OFF" is like.

We left Westmoreland, ran to the bank to deposit my check, went and put the wet clothes from the washer into the dryer at the laundromat, went to Price Chopper to do some shopping (scored big time there - more in a minute about that), went back and got the clothes, dropped off clothes and groceries at house and put the food away, headed back out to go to lunch, stopped at a thrift store, found a cute baby blanket for one of the impending grandchildren to be, stopped at another consignment store near the chinese restaurant and found some clothes I need to go back and get, and then went to lunch. We both had what is called a Bento box. A bento box has multiply food items in it. They give you your choice of soup (we had wonton), 2 sides (we chose crab rangoons, chicken fingers, and chicken wings), rice, 6 california rolls, and your main dish (we chose sweet and sour chicken). We also had tea and water and she had Gingerale. All for 10.00 per person. Can't beat that!

Now before I move on, I did a bit more of a shopping trip than I had planned. But in my defense, Price chopper had some kick ass specials. Tons of veggies on sale, some fruit, and a mega meat sale. I didn't buy a lot of meat just a family pack of boneless, skinless chicken breast, a family pack of various cuts of pork (chops, ribs, etc), pork eye roasts (BOGO free), the ham (BOGO free), and a package of cracked pepper turkey meat (never go shopping on an empty stomach - seriously). With the milk, Gatorade and other items it came to $131.04. I paid $95.17. Could have done much better had I gone through my coopins before going but not bad overall. And KK and I now have enough meat to get us through the next few weeks if not more and enough veggies/fruit to get us through at least a week. Eating healthy is expensive man!

After lunch we drove back up to my dad's to check on Sharon's Jeep and played with Panda Mae (my dad's teeny, tiny, little rat terrier puppy). We finally separated ways and I went and completed three errands I have been putting off, got KK from school, and we came home.

I was exhausted. I could have laid down and slept until tomorrow. KK? Did homework and took a good 2 hour nap. She would still be sleeping if I hadn't woken her up to eat dinner. We snuggled, I said screw the housekeeping for yet another day and here I am.

And here I go. Time to call B and then it is time for bed.
