Day Off Went Fast
My day of vacation went fast I must say. Went in and picked up my son for lunch. He took me to the steakhouse which was nice. I was planning on taking him but he had a gift certificate so we used that. It was delicious as usual.
We had a good talk about his plans for the future and the things we needed to get done – such as, he needs to get to the dentist for a filling that came out and I need to get new tires for the car. I really should go to the dentist as well but will refrain until I really need to cuz that is the kind of person I am.
Went and started to get groceries but ended up having that pain again so cut that short – only got a few things. Came home and have been playing on the internet whenever I get the chance – the darn thing keeps crashing on me. I have no idea what has kept me occupied for this long – got home about 7:30pm and here it is 11pm. What have I been doing?? Was looking at Christmas music, looking at books, researching tv’s as I need a new one but don’t want to spend a lot of money. I have a 27″ right now but will probably have to replace it with a 20″ because I want a flat screen and the 20″ is about all I can afford.
I’m working on my writing project for the month – had 3700 words done as of yesterday – not sure yet how many I have today as I hand wrote them out so have to type them into the computer. I didn’t want to take my laptop with me into town so used a spiral instead. My son laughs at me because I seatbelt my laptop in…doesn’t everyone? If I have to stop suddenly or am in an accident, I don’t want my laptop getting slammed around.
Realized when I got to the store that I hadn’t put the reusable bags in the car so I bought four more – I swear I have over a dozen of them now. Maybe I’ll see if Wayne wants a few. They really hold a lot of stuff and are nice because they don’t break. I string a bungee cord through all the handles when I put them in the trunk and then secure the cord to the little handles for the back seat – that way none of the bags fall over spilling stuff…its great!
Well, anyway, hope everyone is having a good Tuesday!

didn’t you get a case with your laptop?
Because that is what I would carry mine in if I was taking it on a road trip with me.
if you don’t, I agree with Wayne, seat belting it in is funny

I do have a case for it – I pull the seatbelt through case handles and secure it to the seat so it won’t fall or fly around in case of an accident or whatever. It is too expensive to just have lying on a seat without being secured. My dogs get seatbelted in too when I take them to the dog park.
