Today I spent the day with my wonderful friend Cheryl!! We make a point of getting together once a month to eat at a place either one or neither of us have been to before. I'm going to miss these get together while I'm gone, even though I'm sure my waist won't. So today was that day. But the best part of today was since I'm not working, we were able to actually meet for lunch and spend the bulk of the day together. So what did we do, we went to Costco and Target so that I could get my toiletry stuff I needed for my trip.
The other day I mentioned how I'd started packing my toiletries and first aid stuff. But I was still missing my deodorant and face lotion among a few other miscellaneous items that I wanted to have for my trip. So today, I acquired all those items. I even started packing up hair stuff and earrings. All of this is part preparation for my trip and part cleaning my apartment up. My brother insists that I don't have any of my girlie crap laying around while he's living there. Which is understandable. So I figure I'll kill two birds with one stone and start packing stuff that I'm not going to be using between now and when I leave and getting it out of the way for when I am gone.
The other thing I decided to pack because I could see it coming in VERY handy is a flashlight. I thought of this when I ran into a small little flashlight while I was packing stuff up. But then I remembered, I have this AWESOME LED flashlight in an Altoids tin that a friend made. I'm totally taking my Altoids light!! I also gathered all my random things of lip balm and packed them all in different spots. I think I have about 20 tubes, all different brands and flavors. I lose these alllllllllllllll the time, I'm sure by the time I get back, I'll be down to one, from having lost all the others!
On another note, I'd mentioned yesterday that I've been having a hard time with this unemployed thing. I seem to be settling into something of a routine and adjusting and acclimating myself to the new lifestyle. Things are looking up!
