The best part about working hard at the salt mines and my other little side projects is that I get to shop! (My favorite hobby?!)
Today I got to have a little big of "me" time. I started out at Jo-Ann (the craft store) and check out this super cool Ergonmic Crochet Hook and Loom Knitting Tool set from Provo Craft. I was tending to bend the Loom Knitting Tool that comes with the Knifty Knitter looms and this is not only sturdier but also has a nice ergonomic grip and the choice of 2 different handle styles.
I then proceeded to the local Barnes and Noble where I bought a couple of books. I've been eying this 365 Stitches a Year Perpetual Calendar, and of course I had to have the new Amanda Quick (aka Jayne Ann Krentz) book The Third Circle, I also picked up a new paperback romance by Jo Beverly, who I really enjoy reading. Ok, its not great literature, but its better than not reading anything at all, right? Give a girl a break already - I gotta have my romance novels.
Now after this shopping extravaganza, and proceeded directly over to the Nail Spa and had a nice Manicure Pedicure. Ahhh... What could be better? Jin made Sloppy Joes for dinner and then we're making an early night of it.
The only thing left to do is to mention the really neat walk in tubs I found on the internet at AR Wholesale. Did you know that even if you are disabled or can't get in a regular tub due to your age or physical condition you can still take a totally immersed bath? They have these fantastic walk in tubs with doors - you can put them right in your current bathroom where the regualar tub is now. Some even have whirlpool and hydrotherapy features. Boy, I really could have used one of those when I hurt my back when I was pregnant with Adam! I went the whole 9 months plus without taking a bath because I thought I'd get stuck in there because of a back spasm. AR Wholesale even has a sepcial technology to make the tub drain faster so you can get out withiut waiting forever for the water to go out like with a traditional drain. Cool stuff.
