Rural King #2

Today started like any other morning: Dustin making me breakfast and lounging on the couch. We decide to head to the commissary to get some groceries since we were low on fresh items. We first stopped at Borders in Castleton and man has that mall changed! I worked at the Finish Line there when I was a freshman at Butler. I knew the mall like the back of my hand. Now they have all sorts of new stores in there and no more valet parking out front! Dustin bought the new book by Anne Coulter--Guilty. We thought it was funny that she planned for this book to come out in competition to Obama's book that came out on Inauguration Day. I love that girl and she is so hilariously honest about politics. I bought Host by Stephenie Meyer. I did fall victim to the Twilight saga and haven't found a book to take its place yet! I'm currently reading The Shack so I'm going to hurry through that and start this new one!

We then went to Trader Joe's because they sell this crack known as peanuts and almonds. It is insane how deliciously good and addicting they are!! I also got some fruit leathers and some other fresh organic grociers.

After going there we head to the Fort Harrison Commissary to pick up the rest of our groceries and head home to relax.

After awhile, Dustin and I were talking about how much fun we had at Rural King in Kendallville, so we decided to see if there was another one closer to us. We found one in Martinsville about 30 miles from us. A random trip landed us to have some interesting fun! I first found this:

Furniture for my brother Eric! As soon as we saw these matching rocking recliners we thought of Eric. We busted out laughing so hard because it would seriously sell in no time to someone like him.

Here is my first attempt at using the website called picnik.com. Eric's girlfriend, Dora, uses it all the time and so I decided to try it. So much fun and the possibilities of photoshopping are endless!!!

Here's a pic of Gracie being all sweet at the 'rents house.

Eric and his Beagle, Sadie. She used to be able to fit inside our winter coats... that was also the same time that Eric was still shorter and weaker than me.... Those were the days and oh how I wish those days I wasn't so mean to him!

Eric on the floor playing with all the dogs!

On another note, we finally took the Christmas tree down! If it wasn't me sick, it was Dustin and we've been out of town and busy every chance we get. By the time we have gotten home from work we've been so exhausted that some nights we didn't even make supper because we just ended up falling asleep.

This week should be a bit better. Monday my ladies church group meets for its semester kick off on Monday. Check out their blog at the right if you wish to check it out. Wednesday Dustin has a colonoscopy, so I'm taking a half day to take him in for that.
