I had a few more things that I needed today, so I headed over to the Raposos to borrow some tools, picture hanging supplies and a couple things I left behind. Then, Lurline, Talia and I headed to Canadian Tire and Wal-Mart. Talia and I bought some shoes for work - we both needed closed-toe shoes. Then we all did some grocery shopping. Afterwards, Talia came to see my apartment. She read her Cosmo magazine while I puttered around doing some odd jobs. Then, she tried on some of my dresses and shoes - she's looking for stuff she could wear to the bar when she goes out. I told her she could borrow whatever she wanted until she got some of her own dresses. Every girl should have at least ONE little black dress, right?
Lurline and Dave came to pick her up a little later. Afterwards, I did some laundry and a little more cleaning and organizing. It's kind of a challenge that I don't have internet or TV, so I've been doing a lot more reading. I couldn't update my blog, so I've been writing everything and just saving it on my hard drive for when I get connected again.
This is how bare my apartment looks. It echoes. I got some nice stuff, though. The sofa was $40, the solid oak table with four chairs and glass table top was $100, the chair with foot stool was $12, the lamp was $10, and the 2 white end tables were essentially free. I even got the clock on the wall from Value Village for a couple of dollars. I'm thrifty.
