When I woke up this morning there was snow on the ground.
We have had an amazingly warm winter, and no moisture. That is until the last month or so. We got our first snow of the year a couple weeks back, and I was sure that was the last snow I would see for this year as well. I carefully waited, and planned my garden layout for this year. I waited until there was a clear 10 day forecast of above freezing weather, and put everything in the ground this week. Then, the forecast revealed itself, snow, 24 degrees. LOl. Seems only right, but no worries. I have decided not to dwell on it.
I am a thrift shopper, I love to thrift shop, and take extreme pride in really good deals I find. I have not set foot in such a store in
some time, because then I want to spend money, lol. Yesterday I took the chance and popped in 2 different places. There's a little thrift shop here in town called the The Kids Closet. You can find good deals there some of the time, but almost always you find way overpriced items in bad
shape. The thing I hate the most about this little shop is, even with their new advertisement, and cleaning up the shop, the woman who runs the place smokes in the store. This bothers me, because even as an ex smoker, the last thing I want to do is buy baby stuff that reeks of cigarettes, yuck! I did buy some gender neutral baby outfits there, and came home and threw them in the wash, with extra soap, lol. I got them for a good deal, but like I said, I really hate the fact that when you walk into this store it smells of smoke. It also makes me wonder if it is legal? This city has a no smoking ordinance in buildings, no smoking in bars, restaurants, nothing, so can she legally smoke in there even if it is her shop? I don't know, but they are getting really bad business, and I just can help but wonder if others are as turned off as I am, it's gross and tacky. I do have to confess that while at the store, I wanted to, and fought off the urge to but ruffled socks, and bonnets. I really think this baby is a girl, and want to shop for a girl, but have remained safe in yellows and greens, lol. My mom let me know yesterday that she thinks I am a coward, lol, you know its a girl, so shop girl she says. We will see.
