Wednesday Fun
I know I complain about working on Saturdays, but I do love having Wednesdays off! This Wednesday, I had to go to the dentist, so no mid-week trail run for me. Instead, I did a quick early run before taking my daughter to school, then continued on to the dentist. I had to have a cavity filled, which I always do without novocaine. At this point you’re probably thinking, “Jenny. Having a cavity drilled without novocaine does NOT sounds like ‘Wednesday Fun.’” Ha ha…okay, that wasn’t the fun part of the day. But I will say it also isn’t that bad. It really doesn’t hurt! Maybe there’s a little pain, but I don’t think it’s as bad as getting the novocaine shot. You also don’t walk out of there all numbed-up and drooling. Anyway… I left the dentist and the fun started. I stopped at The Container Store, which I always do this time of year because I love to look at their wrapping paper. Their stuff is expensive, but of course if I had found something I absolutely loved I would have gotten it (since this is going to be the Best Christmas Ever.) I ended up not getting anything, but I enjoyed looking. Next up- Barnes and Noble, where I bought the FIRST GIFT OF CHRISTMAS: This is for my son’s “book flood.” I actually had a whole list of books I was interested in, but this was the only one they had! There’s nothing more frustrating that that- I had money to spend and was ready to walk out of there with a stack of books. One book does not make a flood! Well, luckily there’s Amazon. I was just hoping to look through some of the books in the store- oh well. Then, on to Trader Joe’s! After being in such a Christmas-y frame of mind, it was odd to see that Trader Joe’s was all about Thanksgiving, but oh yeah- I have to get ready for THANKSGIVING next week. Trader Joe’s had everything I wanted, including the cat advent calendar (photo at the top of this post) which we get every year. The cats love it. Well, we love it, and they love the treats inside. I spent $170 at Trader Joe’s… and then got home and realized I had no idea what we’re having for dinner. Oops. Next up… nap on the couch with my snuggly cat. After that I picked up my daughter, and the day morphed into cleaning/cooking/laundry and getting ready for tomorrow. .But it was a fun Wednesday. Have you started your Christmas shopping? Are you ready for Thanksgiving?- Not even close. But after today I’m ready to feed my son when he gets home on Saturday! Novocaine- yes or no?
