The necessities of life...

DAY 180 - June 29, 2009


This is what my car looks like every morning as I head into work. It pretty much looks the same in the afternoon on my way home as well. Every day I take my bag to work and most days it comes home untouched. I keep things I "need" in there and feel the need to carry it with me. It contains things like doctor bills that I need to call on about insurance issues (is there ever a time they'll actually bill me right?!?), ads I want to look through, coupons I want to cut, a book I might like to read at lunch but never find the time for, and an umbrella in case it's raining when I leave work. It also contains my lunch bag...this bag is my life though I rarely get through it all. Often I'll try to sort through it and end up throwing things out that I had good intentions of looking through. The bills don't get thrown out though as much as I'd like to toss them!


DAY 179 - June 28, 2009


I got new shoes today! My tennis shoes were in need of replacing but I just never got around to it. I've been running 3 days a week for about 2 months now and I knew I needed some new kickers. Dick's Sporting Goods was having a clearance sale and we were tipped off by a friend that works there. I rarely go into Dick's so I was happy for the info. She also turned me on to a coupon so I got these $120.00 shoes for $70! It's more than I like to pay for shoes but I figured I needed some good ones if I was going to continue running. My regular tennis shoes still have some life in them so these shoes will be used only for running. I never thought I'd buy orange shoes but I do really like these!
