The Weekend and This Week

Our friend Billy and his aunt, Gloria, came to visit Saturday. We went to the flea market, where I found a purse and a jar of honey. Look out Pooh Bear! It was lots of fun. We also went to see The Dark Knight. Yes, I recommend this movie.

Sunday was church then home. We stopped and got a newspaper for coupons. I'm going to see how much I can cut the grocery bill.

The guys came to start our fence install Monday. This is something we are very excited about. Percy will have his own yard to roam around in without supervision. He'll be a free dog tomorrow afternoon.

So today, Tuesday, my friend Sami and I went shopping. Before we started spending money though, we went to the library. Mobile has a very nice library not far from our house. I got a library card and voter registration form and began to feel like part of the community. I don't get out much. Our next stop was Old Navy then it was Best Buy. After that, we went to the mall where I bought a dress. A dress is the only thing I bought for myself today. Everything else was Jason's. One thing required by the man of the house was a HMDI cable for the XBox 360. I didn't realize that I was up for a challenge when I entered Best Buy but to my surprise, they have like 50 of those cables to choose from, some of which are $100. I looked over by the XBoxes to find the one that fit our needs perfectly and it was half the price of those other ones, called Mr. Mullican to make sure it would work, and checked out.

I'll be waking up too early in the morning for the fence people but it'll be worth it.
