A Day Away

Yesterday i headed into Calgary to go shopping with my sister.  It was 50% off at Value Village and her boys needed summer clothes.  She got them a whole lot of shirts and shorts.  And we had to look for ourselves while we were there and I ended up with 1 pair of capris, 2 pair of shorts, 7 shirts, a dress and a couple facecloths all for $39!  I was pretty happy, but now I gotta get rid of some of the stuff I have to make room.
I drove by the same spot with the big metal horse and my sister tried to get a pic of it, but its hard when driving, but he looks so cool!

On my way home I stopped at K and K and was looking for a smaller bosal to ride Razz in so I can get her into the two rein and eventually the bridle.  And they had one, and the felt pads I love.  But they didn't have any hangers or reins I wanted so not a big deal, I can make the hanger and guess will have to find reins elsewhere.  I also found this conditioner I never heard of before but the best thing about it is that it can be left in.  So I don't have to worry so much about getting it all out.  Figured it might help Jessie and her dandruff.  They don't carry the step 4 feed I wanted either, but I think UFA might.

I came home and last night headed out to Pollockville for a ladies hair and makeup night.  I thought I should go cause I don't do much community stuff cause just not interested.  And this was OK.  I did learn a few new simple ways to do my hair, but the makeup stuff I had all heard before and since I don't wear it very often just wasn't what I wanted.  But I did get to visit with some of the ladies I just sometimes feel like an outsider cause I didn't grow up here and I don't have kids, so I lots of people I don't know or not real well anyways.

I'm like you and don't do many community functions....if I'd have heard about that one I might have made a run to Pollickville too.

That sculpture is SO cool!! :)

That last paragraph, wow I so get what you mean. I've actually had a couple neighbours tell me that since we don't have kids and neither of us are from this area that we'll probably always be considered "outsiders" (they weren't being mean about it, just kinda stating how people around here are)
