So far I'm batting .000 for my efforts to get up earlier. I managed to turn off my alarm instead of snoozing as intended and woke up at 10:00. Sigh. Monday could be rough.
I spent most of the day doing something I never do: Shopping. I got a bug to get a different dining room chair (and someday I'd like to get a new set). I didn't care if it was new or used, it just needed to be sturdy and comfortable. FAIL. I did find an exceptionally comfortable floor sample, but it was a counter height. And I did find the set I'd like someday, it's a L.J. Gascho set sold at Art Van. I don't have the ~$2000 it would take to buy it though. During another stop I randomly ended up at the first day of the Klingman's Furniture going out of business auction. That was pretty neat and with time and/or money there were some fantastic deals. You can certainly tell the difference between premium furniture and the discount stuff.
Anyway, the upside of all of this is that I did a lot of walking. Much more than usual. I stopped by the grocery store on my way home for a couple items and that was it. Made some dinner, watched some football.
As part of the deal I called an audible on my lunch selection. I had planned to be home and was going to eat the sausages, but since I decided to head the the big city to shop I did McDonald's instead. I have to say - that was the best job I've ever done of skipping the condiments. Everything stuck to the bun! I pulled the pickles off so I got some trace amounts of ketchup but that's about it.
That reminds me, when I purchased my chunk of cheese at the store the other day, they had sharp, extra sharp and "New York sharp". I need to google the difference, it's been bugging me.
Accomplishments: No wasteful spending (other than gas) - didn't find what I wanted so I didn't buy it. Got in quite a bit of walking. Going to go finish cleaning up the kitchen which I didn't do yesterday.
