Steve Is A Quitter!

Today makes 5 days of no smoking for Steve. Pretty great, huh? Now we are both non-smokers. I am quite pleased. I'm still not exercising or eating healthy yet. I don't want to take my ability to snack away just yet. Since I'm not smoking, I'm eating out of sight (as mom would say :)



So today was interesting. We have had some very nice weather up until this weekend. It has gotten cold. Well, when I went school clothes shopping for Chloe, I got some VERY good deals. You see, instead of buying the new back to school cold weather clothes, I purchased the mega percent off summer stuff. My thinking was that when it got cooler, I could just get her some warm stuff then. The problem is that the weather didn't like taper off. It was nice and then the next day it was cold. There wasn't really a cool down period. Not that I didn't know that it is October, I just wasn't in a rush. Well, I was off work today so I ran down to the Goodwill to try to get some jeans for her. I haven't been there before today and on my way I passed the Springs CCU. That's the school my brother works for. I didn't have much luck finding any jeans in her size. I did however get a brand new pair of gymboree corduroy pants and 2 long sleeved shirts so it wasn't a total loss. Next we went to Macy's because we had a gift card from there and a guy called and said we could dig up some small aspen trees from his yard. I wanted them for my brother. So then, not even 5 minutes later, my brother called. He was coming here to do some work and wanted to have lunch. What luck! So we met up at On The Border. Mike says the wait staff touches the chips with their hands, but I still ate them. The chimi was good, I got to see my bro-bro and he picked up the tab. All in all a very good day. Okay, so now it doesn't seem very interesting, but it sure was to me at the time.



Oh and by the way, I have another kidney stone.
