Yesterday

Yesterday was about as close to perfect as we are going to get in this house these days.  Robert had a scout meeting first thing in the morning.  Andrew dropped him off then headed off to help some friends move.  I picked Robert up, and shortly afterwards began my massive errand running for the day.  I dread running errands, and since I now have to run them on the weekends with the rest of the working folks, I dread it even more!  I did score big at Kohl's though.  I needed a new handbag, and between the sales, my Kohl's cash redemption, and my credit card discount I paid $4.81 for what had originally been a $49 handbag.  Now, you can say that no one at Kohl's ever pays full price for anything and that is probably true, but no one can deny that less than $5 for a new purse is a bargain!  Anyway, yesterday also happened to be my birthday, so Andrew made sure not to be gone all day, and I got home mid-afternoon from my errand running.  And my dream day came true!  No cooking, cleaning, or going anywhere, a glass of wine (or two) and victories by both Ohio State and Notre Dame in college football.  We also sat and played a couple hands of dominoes (our new favorite family game) and I can't remember a birthday I've enjoyed as much as this one!
