But! I'm back! And, I finally had a chance to get my bearings. What does this mean? I went shopping!
Now, when I went out today I just needed to get out of the house. I dropped my husband off at work and went to the mall. I was planning on buying movie tickets (which I forgot to buy... And just bought online cause I really want to see that movie). Well I got distracted by the giant (and I mean giant) Forever 21 across the street. I went in looking for a purse. I tried on 4 or 5 things (only fell in love with one of them, but just couldn't justify buying it).
And then it hit me. I am living in a new, rather affluent area. It was time to go to my native turf. It was time to find a thrift store.
And, thanks to google maps, I did just that! I found myself a nice little Goodwill. And, for the price of that one dress I got a floor mat, a pair of shoes, a dress, two shirts and a skirt. I kid you not.
But it didn't happen by magic. Want to see how many things went into the dressing room with me?
| You can't tell, but that's like 14 different things. |
Remember how I said that you have to try on a lot of things sometimes to find those thrift store treasures. (Don't remember me saying that? Then you might want to read up on some thrifting rules.)

| The Finds! |
Thanks for all your patience! I can't wait to continue our adventures. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
If you want to share your thrift store finds go ahead and post them to my Facebook page.
