Shoe Shopping and a Low Key Thursday

So after the beginning of the week being fairly filled, Josh and I are tired. Therefore, the thought of doing my original plan of going to IKEA made me want to run out of the house screaming. (Don't get me wrong, I enjoy IKEA, but not the trip it takes to get to the store and back). I was also planning to go shoe shopping this afternoon after IKEA. We would have never made it, or at least it would not have been pretty. Therefore, I changed the plans to just go to the little mall that is near our house that has the Carrefour. I want to make something for the barbecue, and the boys are consuming yogurt at an unbelievable pace, so I thought I would run into Carrefour and then check out the two shoes stores I have seen in this little mall.

We got through Carrefour fairly quickly, and headed down to the shoes. Tom was fantastic in entertaining Josh while I looked around and tried on some shoes. Thankfully I was able to find two shoes that would work. I was also able to manage through working with the sales clerks okay. This was clearly a cheaper line of shoes, as I got both shoes for $30, but I think they look much more designer than the price alludes. I am pleased with them and feel they will work well for Monday. The question now, is how long they will last, but when in a pinch it works. (The other shoes I bought here cost much more, and are better quality, but we were in Hong Kong when I bought them and the only store here is by the IKEA, and that was not going to work before Monday).

Now, I am just resting while I wait for either Josh to wake from his nap, or the time for me to go get Danny from school arrives. I think I will watch my new favorite thing--Dustin got me the box set of the TV series Gilmore Girls. I used to watch the reruns of this when I nursed Danny. Now doesn't that seem like forever ago.
