Wednesday Adventure

After a day of work (and it's Wednesday, so it's all 'clinical' in nature--'cept for the 'end of the fiscal year, budget, numbers, spreadsheets and all that jazz' STUFF that I keep trying to cram in every chance I get...) guess what I decided to do?

Water the flowers, 'deadhead' the daisy flowery thingies and fill up birdie feeders.

Lemme correct that.

I STARTED to 'deadhead' the daisy flowery thingies.

Himself took the scissory guys, handed me my purse and announced we were going on an adventure!

Woooooohoooooo!!!!

No foolin'......scissors got dropped on the patio and off we went.

I didn't have a clue where we were headed or what kind of 'adventure' we were talking......but, hey--I'm game after a day of 'head stuff'. (You'd NEED to sit in our team/clinical supervision meetings.......auuggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!)

WE went to McDonalds!

*nodding happily*

And I got french fries and chicken nuggets! AND a coke!

AND!! AND!!!!! I got a Happy Meal!

Which, btw, made Mel a very, VERY happy woman.

Yep.

See, himself doesn't DO McDonalds. So dinner out is never about french fries and toys. Well, RARELY. Like this is the first time in almost forEVER.

And I didn't just get ONE toy.

I got TWO!

(cuz, dontchaknow--if some is good......MORE is better!)

That's right, I got a penguin surfing guy in water that you have to make surf past some nasty rocks. (I keep crashin' the poor thing--but practice will pay off!)

AND I got a surfin' hedge hog. He spins in circles!!

And his name is Reggie. LOLOL (g'head and be PROUD Reg--they named a surfin' hedge hog after you!)

It was way cool.

And then......in the parking lot of McDonalds himself informed me that we were going clothes shopping. As in we were going shopping and we weren't leaving until we had three outfits that FIT me.......period.

Shopping?

C'mon...........everyone knows I hate shopping for clothes.

I hate that MORE than I hate grocery shopping.

MORE!!

(Please note that I did survive--though I hemmed and hawed outside of the store before I could actually make myself go inside.)

And he HELPED me find clothes.

I mean........HELPED me.

As in.......ya know--put things TOGETHER to make them work.

In....make it work and get it done........as in: no lolly gagging or messin' around.....

AND I left with three outfits.

Which means I'm dressed for the next two working days already!

IN stuff that'll actually FIT!

Really..... THIS is huge.

Cuz I'm smaller.

And the poor fella's been picking up the tossed clothes I've been dealing in for a few months now. MOSTLY cuz I refuse to do this shopping deal cuz I HATE shopping for clothes.

Some cuz I managed to drop enough weight that NEAR everything I put on......falls off.

*sigh*

All those suits and jackets...... I've managed to mix and match (and toss and throw and drop) to sorta kinda make things work.

NOW I have three outfits that fit! Head to toe.

And himself says we done GOOD!

AND I got a Happy Meal with toys!!!!!

Woooooohooooooo!!!!!!

*going to play with the surfin' hedge hog now!*
