Hot, hot, hot
Shoo Benny, it's hot outside and inside.
The solution to this would be to get in the pool, but I don't feel like being attacked by Jordon and Liana, so I'll pass. I've never seen two children swim as much as those two little girls do.
Yesterday was one of the most fun days of my summer.
I went shopping with Susan early in the morning, and we went to the bank and she took out $350, then we went to Pier 1, which was awful. And Target wasn't much better. Following this, we went to Greenfield to Wal-Mart and bought all of the stuff for the bathroom.
We got a toothbrush holder, soap dispenser, rug, trashcan, nightlight, toilet seat cover, and shower curtain with matching colorful daisy stuff on them. They're wonderful. We also bought another Orlando poster.
Off we went to the mall, where we stalked Mary Beth through LS Ayres until she got off the phone, and then we spoke briefly. Then off I headed to get some lunch.
Afterward, we went to Sears and bought a shower caddy and later discovered that Lazarus has a third floor.
We left for Bed Bath and Beyond, which was amazing. I love this store! We got a bunch of stuff here. Hooks for the bathroom, shoe racks for over the door, a bath robe for her, a bath mat for the shower, a full-length mirror, another trash can, laundry hampers, and this amazingly beautiful picture called, "Parisian Romance." It's gorgeous.
While Susan was attempting to figure out if she would have the cash to pay for what we were on the verge of buying, I managed to knock over a huge display of boxes holding picture frames. I tripped over them and ended up sprawled on the floor, laughing hysterically because it had made a HUGE noise, and Susan couldn't breathe, and we were standing there laughing for way too long. No one even noticed us. That's how ridiculous it was. I don't think I broke anything.
Anyway, after all of this, I came home and changed and went to Ben's.
Here, Scott N., Eric, Brittany, Tess, Amanda, Ben, and I left for the Indians game, which was fun. We didn't pay much attention. Amanda and I bought new ringers for our phones and Ben was in charge of saving my life. I ended up covered in peanut shells and being attacked by ants. Scott caught a ball that one of the players threw up to him, and he gave it to this little boy who asked if he could see it, and the little kid was soooo happy. He made Scott his new best friend and kept sitting by him and asking when he was going to catch the next ball.
Afterward, we headed to SNS, where I was on the verge of getting horribly ill. Everyone ate and teased our waitress, who I guess Scott knows. Eventually I got home, and my mommy helped me not be sick anymore.
Today, I've been to the library to pick up my book and watched a little tennis. I think I'm just going to stay inside with my family this evening because I'm tired of going out. I need to save my money for Colorado anyway.
Speaking of Colorado, yesterday was my three-year anniversary. I was excited. It's definitely been the most wonderful three years of my life, and I hope I have three more years like these past ones. How could I ever ask for anything other than what Jordan does for me? I love that boy.
Love Always,
Alison
