Not Me Monday #32

I kept looking forward to the end of September because it means it's getting closer to March (just like I am not looking forward to the end of October), but I didn't want such a drastic change in temperature. Only in Minnesota! Feels like we just went right from summer to winter over the weekend.

This wasn't the most eventful but I'll see what I can do to make it interesting and perhaps a bit humorous. Here goes...

I know I said I was all garage-saled out for the season, but I just couldn't help going to one last one Wednesday night. I did not end up buying a framed picture of a flower for my mom's bathroom. About 5-6 years ago I bought her a similar picture which was part of the same set as this one I just bought. What are the odds? I guess pretty good considering I beat my mom in Scrabble later that night which, if you know my mom, never happens!

I did not run out of Emeril seasoning when making sweet potato fries last Friday. I decided to add some of my own seasoning by first shaking in a little pepper. Oops, the one lid of the pepper can wasn't closed securely from when I made chili the night before and I ended up with a little more pepper than desired. The only thing I could think of while I wiped/washed off the excess pepper was "Good thing Papa Lewis isn't coming for dinner"!

My friends, Angie and Rachel, and I went shopping on Saturday for some supplies for Angie's wedding. We were looking for cardstock, ribbon and vases from IKEA. I did not drag them 4 fabric/craft stores (3 of which neither of them had been in ever before) just to find the exact color of ribbon at the very last store! It was a fun outing despite the crowded stores and we ended up crossing off quite a few things on the list.

John and I had a nice day together on Sunday. It was nice to watch the Vikings game together with the windows open and the fall breeze blowing in. However, once the game ended, we did not decide to go to the grocery store just as the cold wind started picking up and it started sprinkling. Brr....was it cold!

John did not get his 8th Homer Award today for having the top department sales in the region for the month. Way to go - I'm proud of you!
