I had no real plans for this weekend and decided to just do whatever we came across to do. So, Friday night, we went to eat Chinese with my mom (mmmm) and as always I cracked open my fortune cookie ready to plan my life by the tiny piece of white paper. (Not really, but how funny would it be if people really did?) So, I crack it open and I'm stunned. One side has numbers (lotto) and my Learn Chinese word of the day, but the other side is blank. BLANK!! Now, a more superstitious person than myself would probably flip out at the prospect that they have no future, I on the other hand, decided that went along with my weekend of do whatever I feel like, so I thought it was perfect!!
So, I rented some movies...
o Spanglish
o Freaky Friday
o Raising Helen
o Phantom of the Opera (saw in the theater)
o The Girl Next Door
o Without a Paddle

So far I have sucessfully finished Spanglish (it was okay...not my favorite) and Raising Helen (really good in that you-already-knew-how-it-would-turn-out way), and 1/2 of Freaky Friday. Maybe I'll get through a little more today. If not, oh well then!

.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
As I walked through Wal Mart waiting on my photos from the photo center to print out, I noticed that my absolute most favorite time of year Wal-Mart-wise had arrived! The shelving of back to school supplies!!! There is nothing better than looking at and buying back to school supplies. All of the cute colored folders, fresh clean 5 subject notebooks, boxes of crayons, and bags of ink pens were all lined up waiting for some kid to take them home and write their name in a giant Sharpie on the front. I really miss back to school shopping!!

.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
Three things:
What were your 3 favorite school supplies to purchase?
1. Notebooks
2. Crayons
3. Mechanical pencils

.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
Well, LittleMan just dumped out an entire drawer of pens and pencils, so I'd better go. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Melissa
Melissa-Mom to LittleMan (4/04); wife to LuckyHusband; full-time toxicologist; full-time housekeeper; full-time domestic laundromat manager (washes all the clothes); full-time domestic finance manager (pays all the bills and yells at husband for spending too much money on fishing stuff); and Keeper of the Cheerios. Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
