When I finally left there, feeling like I needed to take the "Civil Service Test", I headed to "Goodwill" to see if there was anything there I could salvage and put to use. As it turned out, I did get a couple of books and one in particular with some cute little poems. I'll add a poem from it at the end of my post. After that, I went to one of my most favorites leisure shops, "Big Lots". I only go there about twice a year and I just love to have time to go down every aisle. They always have some really great organic stuff tucked away in the nooks & crannies and I managed to score some great sauces and teas. Plus, I found these cuter than cute little cans of "V8" that we will have to start sucking down every morning when we start the "South Beach Diet" next week. They are only 5.5 ounces each, which are perfect. I have to share them with you because they are so cute:

Anyway, only 3 more days until the diet begins and I will be counting on all of you for moral support. Tonight we are having dinner @ Arzi's, of course, since we've missed it three weeks in a row because we were in NC. We are trying to convince Ross {the owner} to move to Brevard and open an Arzi's up there. We need one there very bad. In the meantime, we will just have to get in as much as we can until we leave. Most of the food is allowed on our diets, in moderation. My dear friends Chuck & Van will be joining us for dinner, so that will be a treat. They own the little gift shop "Nature's Treasures" where I have my jewelry here in Baton Rouge. I just love them - they are so sweet.
Well my little friends, I need to go water the plants outside before Wayne gets home, so we can leave for dinner a little early. And now, what you've been waiting for ~ a poem from my new little book I got today:
"I think mice are rather nice. Their tails are long, their faces small, they haven't any chins at all. Their ears are pink, their teeth are white, they run about the house at night. They nibble things they shouldn't touch and no one seems to like them much, but I think mice are nice."

43 packages?! I don't even have 43 sales total in over 6 months!
ReplyDeleteThe difference in the postage rates is ridiculous. They need to get their act together. I hope the boss tells that person a thing or two.
I gave up dieting a loooooong time ago!! Good luck!
I still can't get over 43 packages.....
But the 43 packages is over an almost 3 week period. I wish I had 43 packages to mail a day (not really though, I would totally freak out). Yes, I'm going to call my friend tomorrow. I was going to e-mail her, but I think it would be easier over the phone. I've got to get to the bottom of the postage deal and find out how much I'm supposed to be paying. Thanks, Ginger!
