Today was a good (if long) day. Denis let me sleep until 9 a.m. at which point I got up, took a shower and made pancakes for CootieBoy. Then CootieBoy and I just hung out together for a while while Denis did computer stuff for my mom’s online shop. Around 11:30 a.m. I headed out to run some errands, most notably going to Lowe’s to buy pegboard for my booth setup idea.
I got my new swimsuit in the mail yesterday and was sad to see that the bust size is still too big. *sigh* Not as crazy as the other suit, but still somewhat unacceptable. I spoke to a rep from the store this morning, but in the end I opted to just keep the suit rather than pay even MORE money to have it altered. So, once I got home from my Lowe’s trip, CootieBoy and I got our swimsuits on and headed to the pool. It was a bit cloudy when we got there, so the pool was COLD when we first got in. But we eventually got used to it and spent two hours there. By the time we left there were blue skies and it was getting quite hot. It was only a few hours later that I realized I was REALLY sunburned and it’s a miracle CootieBoy didn’t burn. Neither of us had sunscreen on. Fortunately, he was covered in floatie gear so the only part of his body that saw any sun was his face, and he mostly had his back to the sun, so it’s all good. The new swimsuit is good – the only bad thing is that since it’s a two piece, when I’m in the water I have to tuck the top of the suit into the bottoms so it it doesn’t float up to the surface of the water. It’s no big deal, and it doesn’t affect my general satisfaction with the suit. Despite the whole bust size thing, the suit is a winner.
Once we got home from the pool and into dry clothes, I made sandwiches for all of us and then had CootieBoy sit for some TV time while I worked on art stuff, organizing my crate of supplies for the art market on Thursday. Eventually though, CootieBoy got rambunctous again and I had Denis take over for a while. He opted to take CootieBoy to the store so I could get some computer time, arriving home at 8 p.m.
CootieBoy didn’t want to go to bed but we eventually got him settled and then it was just kind of a chill night from there. Denis had a conference call with my mom about her online store, and then I hopped back on the computer to do more WordPress tweaking of the website.
So yeah, it was a good day.
Tomorrow is church, following by the park (if it’s not raining), and possibly the pool again. I know Denis wants to do some gardening and clear out some weeds and stuff – if CootieBoy passes out into a nap after park/pool stuff, then I’m game.
