pixiecrinkleGood lord I've had a productive day. So far, I've:
-gone to the dentist, where I found out I had three cavities, and am in need of a bite plate because indeed I am a sleepytime tooth grinder (I knew it!!)
-braved Victoria's Secret to buy a strapless bra to go under my bridesmaid's dress. And found out that yes indeed, I have gone up a band size, but not a cup size. But yet I still wonder why Vicki's makes bras with cups that seem to want to come up to my neck. What's up with that?
-picked up my package from the post office, and was surprised to find it was already my elann.com order: 20 hanks of Organic cotton to make a sundress for me (the cover of the most recent IK)
-drove to Old Navy where I managed to get enough things to make my summer wardrobe a little more complete, for both work and play. The whole place was strangely devoid of size 12 anything though. I found one of the three pairs of pants I tried on in that size, and that was in a color that wasn't my first choice. Yet they had piles of size 0s, 1s, and 16s. But no 10s or 12s. Maybe their buyer needs a clue about what sells out fastest. I did find a good multipurpose purse/worktote/knitting bag.
-went to Beauty First to try to find hair sunscreen (I'm getting ready for ComFest and I'm *not* losing this haircolor to the sun!). Found something close, and also came out with several other items.
-went to Tuesday Morning, where indeed they did have bags of cotton ease and wool ease sportweight. I grabbed the wool ease in black (for Broad Street mittens for me) and Cotton Ease in Bubblegum, which will either be a cami for me, or trade fodder.
-went to The Yarn Shop's new location. While the people were much nicer than a few times when I've been there, I still don't like that store. Too much novelty yarn and not enough basics. I got some notion type things, and also some things for my Secret Pal, but most importantly, I left without buying any yarn!!! This is significant.
-drove to the tailor to drop off my dress for alterations, only to find they were closing. So I'll do that sometime this week
Now, I am utterly exhausted, and have all the time in the world to knit. Hurrah!!!
