The day didn’t start out too badly (Sunday that is). It was in the low 70s. I got my stew going before Brian and I headed to Macy’s in Christiana, DE to order a new bed. This was a long time in the making, believe me. My father-in-law had given us (bless his heart) over $500 in Macy’s gift cards over the last 6 months (he gets them at Caesars in Atlantic City), so we applied them to a higher price ‘plush top’ bed. It won’t get here until the end of November because I didn’t want to wait around on my birthday for a delivery truck to come. I also used one of my Entertainment.com coupons (that’s a great book-check out entertainment.com) to get 10% off a new set of pots and pans-an early birthday gift. I was checking out a good knife, but the prices were skyhigh. I really needed some new saucepans because the T-fal stuff is coming off the inside of the ones I use a lot.
So on the way down to Christiana (about a 25 minute drive), I felt something funny on one of my bottom teeth. I looked in the mirror and the top part of a tooth had mostly chipped away revealing some decay. I was so bummed! I hope it can be repaired so I don’t have to get a crown or root canal. Not sure how they handle teeth with no flat surface like molars. Wish me luck.
We came home (after a trip to Borders books and Acme supermarket) to find the stew was turned off with no liquid in it at all-Sean said he ‘watched’ it. I had to ‘doctor’ it up again and we had some delicious ‘soft’ round bread with it.
I had gotten some Ben & Jerry’s frozen yogurt and Brian forgot take it out of the bag. He had unbagged most of the stuff while I fixed up the stew. So that was the ‘ugly’ part of the day. I never have seen a more sadder sight than melted chocolate frozen yogurt!
