The silly season

Posted under General by Kimberly on Thursday 18 December 2008 at 3:44 pm UTC

Yesterday we had to duck into town to pickup a couple of things. Low and behold trying to get a car park was a nightmare. You can definitely tell school holidays are upon us. But it makes me wonder what the hell everyone is on about with regards to the supposed recession were are in. There seems to be a lot of spending going on this past week, I guess next week is going to be even worse with the lead up to Christmas.

 

Then today we went to pick up a couple of movie tickets for tomorrow afternoon. We thought we’d park in the Downtown parking building. Yeah, well. We got up the ramp to find a ‘Full” sign.

 

What a fucking stupid place to have a “Full” sign. Wouldn’t it make more sense to have the sign at the bottom of the ramp where one can see it from the road so we don’t waste our time driving up to find it’s full.

 

Well, I noticed not long after I had done a U Turn and found a park on the road, that 3 more cars had to do the same.  Next thing you know, the dopey security guard who watched us do a U turn is standing down the bottom of the ramp telling people it’s full.

 

I think I’ll hold off going into town again until after New Years.. :)


Retail Therapy

Shoes 002A girl can never have too many pairs of shoes. :) so when we were looking around No 1 Shoe Warehouse and I found these for $10.00 I couldn’t just leave them there.

They had to a part of my foot wear collection. And they look as hot as hell with a pair of jeans and tight t-shirt :D

We initially went to buy some sandals for wearing during summer. Which I managed to get too. :) So all in all I guess you could say I had a good day shoe shopping :)


Retail Therapy and Other Things

dress Ok, I couldn’t resist when I saw this on sale at EziBuy down from $109.95 to $50.00

I initially looked at it a few months ago but couldn’t justify the $109.95 but at $50.00 I knew I couldn’t pass the opportunity up to have this in my wardrobe

I also purchased a couple of pairs of jeans so all in all I had a good retail therapy morning this morning.

We decided to head over to Feilding to go to the A&P show at Manfield. Over all I guess it was nice to see and get up close to some of the animals. Although I have a problem with the cost of the side shows. Biggest waste of money around. Good way to blow $50.00 in an afternoon though. Mind you I did spend more than that in the space of an hour this morning :)

The weather here in Palmy has been brilliant all day so I also managed to get the Pool pump and sand filter setup on the pool. Unfortunately there was no pump/filter with the pool when we moved in, but we managed to pickup a bargain off trademe for a pump and 2x sand filters.

I feel absolutely shattered and think I’m going to sit down with a nice bourbon and coke after dinner. We are having BBQ pork chops and it smells so nice. So without boring you any more I’m going to go and eat. :)


New Boots

So I’m a boots girl… :)

A girl can never have too many pairs so while we were shopping for some for Sarah I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity when I saw these.

While I’m not exactly short, now I can be taller than dad. hahah.. :D
