I took the day off yesterday so DH could take Lizzy to an open house at school. She met a few teachers, found her way around the school and tried out her locker.
Then we went to a specialty mall to return a hat I bought at Orvis for DH for Father's Day. I had forgotten about it before we went away. I figured it was a good day as the mall gets crazy busy on weekends. It was about 45 minutes in nasty traffic to get there. We get there and Orvis is closed for inventory.
We went to LL Bean to get Lizzy a new larger backpack to fit all her big expensive binders. They were on sale 20% off and have a lifetime guarantee so I figure it was a good investment.
We went to dinner at PJ Changs which Lizzy, DH & I really enjoyed. Joe said he didn't really care about it and Emma of course didn't eat anything.
Then I noticed Joe's rain coat was getting too small so we went back into LL Bean. They had the one he was wearing but only in hot pink. They had another one he said was too plasticy and the one he liked was $159 so we didn't get him a new jacket. I'll have to order it online.
Disappointing about Orvis but Lizzy came home and fit all her stuff in her new backpack so it wasn't a total loss.
My foot is sore today. I go to the doctor again tomorrow for another bandage change. I'm hoping he'll tell me he'll remove the pin a week from tomorrow. Well I would really love for him to say it looks so great it can come out tomorrow but I know he won't be saying that. I'm really anxious to be able to drive again. I don't like having to depend on other people.
