I need to do a bunch of housework. I did manage to take the dog for a walk in the arboretum. Gotta do dishes and laundry and some general cleanup.

Also spent some money I shouldn't have, but what the heck. I can afford it it's just kinda silly to spend money on more trading cards. But whatever.

Tomorrow, a craft fair and a soccer game!

Whoosh. Had a near miss today. I left my phone in the cart at Costco, which is also my wallet. I turned around as soon as I could and went back but no dice. Went inside to see if someone turned it in and they checked all the places but still nothing. Finally the Costco lady called it and it was picked up right away. She asked where they were - they were literally at my house dropping it off.

A good lesson in keeping your info updated, and in people being pretty decent on the whole, even though it sometimes seems otherwise.

Whoa, good luck on that one, Brenda!

Oh, good ending on that one, Brenda.

Day went/is going swimmingly.

I did find some more pep, too.

Did you swing by Pep Boys? Or was it more of a Dr. Pepper thing?

Whew! Pep stores now exhausted. Super fun day and evening, though. That worked out!

Pepto-Bismol. It's all I had handy.

It's the duct tape of medicines! It can do it all.

Quiet today.

Went to the DC Pen Show this morning. So huge, so many pens... so many gorgeous, spendy pens!

I bought a journal with lovely paper. Now I need to find my fountain pen, which is a work-a-day pen, so I don't know why I never use it.

Glad I reconnected with my friend at her b-day party yesterday. That was good. We are making plans to catch up one-on-one soon.

Lovely visit with my niece and her fiance. They are pretty darned darling together. Had a couple of my friends over, ordered Thai, and chatted the night away. Really pleasant. I am freaking lucky in the friends and family department.

That 100% includes glowy box friends, of course.

How are your weekends wrapping up?
