Somehow God Knew I Needed My Dad

Dad came over yesterday unexpectedly... spent the night... and spent the whole day with me here at the house.

We hit up a garage sale in Mukilteo that was actually pretty good. They had a jewel-toned amethyst colored lazy boy with a matching ottoman that was just beautiful. They only wanted 20 bucks... alas, it wasn't going to fit into the stratus.... dang it.

Drake melted in the car when we left... screaming at the top of his lungs. I kept my cool.... just trying to keep the old bp down.

I was really looking for some cute patio furniture. I feel inspired by Merissa's and I want some of my own. Perhaps I should hit up the antique stores in SnoHo... I feel a shopping trip coming on.

This burst of optimism is stemming from the very large bowl of chicken pho that I just consumed. I think it the first real food that I have consumed in a couple of days. I've been protein shaking, and nibbling, but I am seriously full.

I think that I will just have to make this a habit. Chicken Pho for the soul.

and now onward to a nap.

  4. I love Ikea. Richard hates it.
    I will have to sneak away with Riah.

    btw - Kenmore now has a white trash wonderland - a Grocery Outlet in the same parking lot as the Dollar Store, all it needs is a Ross and it would be the holy trifecta.
