I loved waking up this morning!
I had a nice picked-up front room, the dishes were done and it was past 7 a.m., when I opened my eyes. My first thoughts were about everything I had gotten done yesterday and what I needed to accomplish today.
I asked Curt to have to car today, and he told me that he needed it because he had a meeting.
I am grateful that he needed the car because that forced me out of the house to go shopping before he left for work. We needed laundry detergent (I kept forgetting when I went previously) and so I headed out to Fry's.
I am going to go shopping from now on in the morning and here's the reasons why:
1. I have never been greeted so warmly by the guy at the door.
2. They told me that they would honor the sale prices for anything that they hadn't changed yet.
3. I asked an employee where something was and instead of him just telling me or pointing, he took me directly to it.
4. There is just something nice about someone telling me, "Good Morning" and smiling while they say it!
5. I went to the self-checkout and had the attendant to myself. We had a nice conversation.
6. There were no screaming, tantruming children. No one I had to tell "No!", "get down from there" or "would you two quit fighting?" to. They were at home in bed or watching cartoons. Ahhhhhhhhhh, Silence really IS golden!
7. I saw a few people in pajamas, gym shorts and tees, and a few that you could tell had just rolled out of bed. I felt so at home.
8. Everything was in stock, I didn't have to get rainchecks for anything. So, so nice.

ON another note:
Alyssa's dress is mostly finished and it's so adorable. I will take some pictures and post them later. I fell like such a "Mom" lately and am so glad the kids are home for the summer.
