I like new clothes

Today was a good day in more ways than one.

First off, it was my first day of eating better and not as much. To be honest, it’s not that difficult to do on the weekends. I find it harder to restrict my calories during the week. Something about sitting at a desk all day makes me feel ravished.

Secondly, we saw a really good movie – Disturbia. Since it’s been out three weeks now, I was able to use our free passes. We were the only ones in the theatre too which was nice. I may be a comedy girl, but Disturbia was so much better than the crap fest, Employee of the Month, which we watched a few hours ago. It was not very funny. Thank god it had Dane eye candy or it would have been a complete waste of my time.

Third of all, I got some new clothes, which is always fun. Anyone who knows me is well aware of the fact that I’m a tank top fanatic. Well, my favorite tank tops were the Perfect Fit™ ones from Old Navy but apparently they are phasing them out. There were nothing but small and extra small at the store and no decent colors online. Sucky. But no matter, I found some great tanks at Wally World of all places. Not only do they fit better and feel softer, they were only $4.88 each. Score! So suck on that, Old Navy. I don’t need you anymore because honestly, I can’t stand your clothes. The tanks were your only redeeming quality and you blew it.

New clothes

I also got a dress from Sears. I wasn’t too sure about it until I modeled it for Joe and he loved it. I was a little concerned that it was $30 because to me that’s a lot for one clothing item, but it rang up half price. And it just kept happening like that. Everything I bought today was on sale, including these two cute sterling silver pendant necklaces that were 60% off from Kohl’s. I’ve been wanting some new jewelry for awhile so I was happy to find them.

After my little shopping spree, we came home so Joe could change the front brakes on the Jetta. While he did that I cleaned the bathrooms and our master bedroom while doing laundry. By the time he was done with the car it was dinnertime, but we had to run to Target for a few things. We ended up having a late dinner and watching a movie. I wasn’t able to get online until 10 pm which is unusual for me. Now it’s past my self imposed bedtime. I think I’m going to bed shortly, however.

Tomorrow I have to take my dress back to Sears so they can remove the security tag they left on. Interestingly enough, it didn’t set off any alarms, so I’m not sure how they managed to disable it yet forget to remove it.
