Who Knew......Everyone Probably

Well, every day is a new experience.....in more ways than one.  LOL   Who knew that I do not have to print out those coupons anymore........thanks to the Smart Phone.   Probably everyone knew but me.   I am a little behind in all this technology stuff.   How many millions of years have I been printing and clipping those coupons.......too many to count.   Where in the world have I been?   Certainly not up with the latest trends.   And, of course, I got the same story at all three stores.......Michaels, Joann's and Aaron's.  

I didn't do a lot of shopping but I like going to those stores ever once in awhle to see what's new and I usually always run into friends........that is the best part of it all.   And today was no exception either.   I picked up a few things but really don't need a lot at this point.    I did find this great book by Lynne Perrella, Art Making, Collections and Obsessions.   Now does that fit me or what!   I started scanning it and couldn't put it down.   I don't know how I missed this book as it was printed three years ago because I have all of her other books.     Well, of course I had one of the printed out coupons so off we went.  What I found so interesting in it was that I have taken classes with a lot of the Artists who are featured in this book and knowing them a little puts a personal touch on reading about their collections/obsessions.   I can't wait to sit down and really read this book and see what I am missing out on as far as collecting neat stuff.

Since I was looking for a particular magazine, I decided to stop by Barnes and Noble.   Well, they didn't have the magazine but this called my name.........a White Chocolate Mocha with a Pizza Pretzel so I sat outside in the shade and caught up on some emails, net surfing, etc.   Yum is all I can say.   That gave me strength so I could go to the grocery store to get stuff for dinner tonight.   And what a way to ruin a perfectly nice day too..........I really don't enjoy cooking anymore and everything it entails.


So a big pot of stew is cooking, just need to put garlic bread in the oven and Blueberry pie is waiting thanks to Fry's.   You know I am not going to be doing a pie from scratch these days.   Been there, none that and don't want to do it anymore.   Thank You Very Much.

Hope everyone has had a great weekend and enjoying your evening right now.   I finally had to put the air conditioning on as it has been so HOT lately here in the desert.
