Long Day....

What a day I had, a very long day.......

Last night, I didn't go to bed until almost 2am and I had to wake up early to start my day, no sleeping in! I needed to get up early because I wanted to take a shower before heading out to Coquitlam to pick up Jas so we could shop at the huge IKEA store. Don't worry, I only spent $30.00 and that included lunch! In the last two trips I have been able to walk out of the store without spending over $40.00 so it is POSSIBLE. I picked up a couple of discontinued door boards (for kitchen cupboards) because I am doing an art project, making a necklace holder for my growing collection and terry cloth slippers (for my at home foot spas). After shopping at IKEA, we headed towards Carmen's place to pick up the girls, we had arranged plans to take them to the mall and to build a bear at the Build A Bear Workshop because Winnie The Pooh is here!! We let the girls head off on their own for a bit while Jas and I did a little shopping for ourselves. I ended up buying these, they are so cute! Not too bad in price and will be nice to at least match my work clothes as I walk about 10 blocks to the bus stop and in no way can I do it in 3.5" heels. At Jacob, I picked up this, on sale (for more details, click here). We decided to stop off at Starbucks to grab a coffee (by this time, I was having a migraine) and to sit outside in the sunshine. KD and her friend were also in the mall so she stopped by for a bit of chit chat. They didn't stay long and Jas and I only sat for another 20 minutes or so before heading off to BABW to meet the girls. I had the girls build me a Pooh bear because I am much too old to be doing it. After BABW, we headed over to The Boss for dinner and to meet up with Vince. We were suppose to go out for drinks to celebrate Jas's new start and Vince's belated birthday but Vince had gone out clubbing the night before and was still suffering the after effects of the alcohol so after dinner, I drove the girls back to C's place and met them for bubble tea. We probably sat around for a good two hours, talking and catching up before calling it a night.

Sheesh, I am too old to live off 6 hours sleep, I need at least EIGHT HOURS or else I cannot make it through the day..... glad the day is over and I'm off to bed.....
