My aunt came, we headed out to the thrift shop. Not busy. Immediately I started finding cute stuff. The fitting room was not open but we found a corner, I took my shoes off, and tried jeans on over my leggings. I walked out of there with 5 pair. Two that fit now, two to fit later, and one that may be a while fitting but was only $3 so I snagged it.
I also got a nice mauve gauzy scarf/wrap nice to wear to dress something up, a cute purple lace knit beanie, a DVD (The Stand), and a paperback romance novel all for $44.
I show off the clothes here:
This thrift shop does have a problem with a stale aroma on the clothes so I bought some gain later and am washing the darks in that right now.
I have 3 new jeans, one I bought at Walmart for $9 and then the two I bought at the thrift shop for $9. One dark blue, two black. I will be drying the load with the cat hair preventer dryer sheets.
I will wash the purple jeans tomorrow. I got a storage box for the smaller stuff to live in. That way I have something to size down to. I have found it is motivating to know I have cute new stuff when I lose weight. And today's whole haul was $44. You can't beat that.
My aunt scored half a dozen Disney videos for the grand kids. She was pretty happy and most of them were the color of the day and thus half off. I felt great about that I like her to get something too. Not just always "for Heather" although she is a real Christian about it.
We got some lunch and then hit Walmart. I got the one pair of No Boundaries size 21 bootcut jeans I had been considering. I also got some gain laundry packs because the thrift store smell can be hard to shake. The tide free and clear wasn't going to cut it. I got my groceries, a little soda, some drink mix. 2 cartons of vanilla soy milk. I got some peanut butter crackers I plan to see if those will work for me tonight. I plan to eat a package (they are preportioned) and see if they give me a headache. If they don't I will be set with a new, affordable, snack.
I think I will go eat them now. Done. I am just not very hungry today. Don't get me wrong I ate my lunch but not starving today. But it should be "enough" for the medication.
That's it for now.
