Diary of a Much Needed Vacation - Day Six

It's been a LONG time since I've been so lazy on a Sunday.  I woke up at 7:00am and went downstairs and Kirby and I snuggled on the couch and watched the most recent episode of "The Real Housewifes of New York City" and yes, I know....I'm going to fry my brain watching that crap, but it's like the old saying goes..."It's like watching a train wreck, you can't look away"....lol!  Fell back to sleep on the couch and slept til 10:30...Wowza....I'm usually already done with the weekly grocery shopping and back home by 10:30. 

I played in my scraproom for a while and finished up another couple of pages.  Trying to decide if I'm going to re-organize it....it's such a massive undertaking and because it's not a large room, I don't have a lot of options.

I finally got myself together enough to get dressed and go to the grocery store because we were out of milk and almost out of bread.  I decided that I was going to "freestyle" the grocery store this week....lol!  I am very meticulous about planning meals, making a grocery list, knowing what's on sale and even having an average of about $10 bucks a week in coupons.  Today, I was going to "wing it"....or my own coined term of "freestyle it".

I took a list of what I had hastily written down that we needed, the store ad and my coupon keeper and off I went....It wasn't the first time I had done that, I "freestyled" a couple of weeks ago, but we really didn't need much that week.  I was surprised that I spend about $40 bucks less that I usually do....

It's been so damn hot and anyone that knows me, knows I DO NOT LIKE SUPER HOT WEATHER, but the heat has been amazing for my vegetable garden.  My zucchini and yellow squash plants are larger than I've ever seen them.....look at all the blossoms




Enjoyed watching the U.S. Olympic Gymnastic Trials and absolutely thrilled that our hometown girl Gabby Douglas came from behind and took the #1 guaranteed spot on the U.S. team!

Stayed up late reading magazine and watching (for the millionth time, but I adore it),  The Rocker.

If you haven't seen it, seriously get your butt to the video store and rent it.......Rainn Wilson is just so good...along with Emma Stone, Teddy Geiger, Jason Sudekis and even cameos by Wil Arnett and Bradley Cooper.   Let me know what you think!
