Good afternoon, everyone. I didn’t sleep well last night, mostly because my dogs were hot, uncomfortable, and needed me. So, I think it’s going to be a “fake it ‘til you make it” kind of day.
Even though I didn’t massively oversleep, I got to the coffee shop later than I had intended. But what are you gonna do? *Sigh* At least I ate breakfast and took my meds early enough.
Shortly after getting to the coffee shop, my best friend asked if I wanted to run to the Dollar Tree and back. I’m not going to see her all weekend, and it’ll be one less place to go tonight, so I agreed. Actually, I agreed on two conditions: it had to be nearby, and I needed to be dropped off at the coffee shop.
I didn’t get much because my pay won’t clear until this evening. Plus, I don’t need much right now. I was originally going for body wash, but my PA bestie told me she had stuff. I picked up face wash until I can get my usual from Target. I also got detangler, woo! My hair is thick and wavy, and I’ve been needing it for a bit. And that’s all I got. I was planning to eat lunch when I got back (just finished), so I didn’t need any snacks.
Oh, I did order a raspberry iced tea at the coffee shop. The baristas were nice enough to put it in the refrigerator until I got back. I’m a regular, so they know me lol. They’re also just nice and didn’t care about keeping someone’s paid-for drink cool until they picked it up.
Later, I’m going out with my brother-in-law and nieces. We’re going to the thrift store, and I want to look for a sheet to cover with and maybe PJ shorts. Sometimes, I need a cover, but it’s too hot for my throws (and definitely too hot for my comforter). I don’t know what happened to my sheet, so I’m going to look for one and wash it right away (if I find one). The PJs shorts would be a nice-to-have, but not a serious need right now.
I also need to stop by Target or something to pick up a personal care item. It wasn’t on my original shopping list, but it is what it is. Plus, we may stop by Home Depot for new trash cans.
I’m hoping that’s it because I don’t want to be out all night. But I’m not the only one who needs to pick things up.
Afterwards, I’ll take care of stuff at home and relax for the night. I need to lie down early tonight because I’m so tired, but we’ll see if that happens. Fortunately, I’m probably not working tomorrow, so I can lie back down after taking my meds if need be (but not for too long). Hopefully, I’ll sleep well and not need to go back to bed in the morning.
Alrighty, I have another post to share, so I’m going to wrap this one up. I also have work to do. So, I’ll be back shortly.
