After my 8 am dentist visit for a cleaning..which reminds me - why do I always schedule them early in the workday - then have to go into work? Why don't I schedule them for the end of the day and then leave work early and go home afterwards?
Go figure...
On the way to work after the lovely dentist, I wanted to stop by Barns & Noble because Mr. B saw Dr. Oz on Oprah and they were talking about the book "Eat This, Not That"...and he was quite amazed at all the mis-information we carry around...we "think" were making smarter choices, but in reality, maybe not so much..
Anyway..I picked up that book, all ready to hit the check stands, when I see a big honkin' "$2.00" sale sign...
I go to look and find several that interested me and could have purchased a lot more if I had the cash (remember, credit/debit cards and or checks and I do not mix..bygones..) so I had to narrow my choices...here are some of the ones I chose:
A scrapbook of sorts for a grandchild by Debbie Mumm
A darling {autographed} copy of a dog's tale by Cindy Adams..the gossip columnist..
..and one that certainly got Braxton's attention...
Yep...a great, papering-how-to (as if we need a "how-to") that I know both he and Lulu will benefit from..
Then this GeOrGEoUs big book ..."Formal Country"...great photos, large pages..really really nice..
..and to think I got them, with my Barnes & Nobel member card for another 10% off - making the $1.80 each! Can you imagine?? I walked out of there with less money spent that I would have if I ate out that day...love BArGiNS!!
Lulu seems impressed....sort of....
Braxton, well, probably not so much...UNTIL I start the mini-massage and hot oil treatment....
So, until tomorrow, remember to:
wash
brush
flush
and.....
