Today was really nice. I woke up this morning with no big plans so I decided to call my dad and see if he was free for a visit. He recently moved closer to me so this was the first time I was able to drop by spontaneously. He was super excited when I called, which of course, made me very glad I did. We went to lunch and ate outside looking over the ocean. It was a beautiful day for that. My dad, aka George Hamilton, claimed he was "losing his tan" which is physically impossible. The man is dark in December. Me, on the other hand, well I got a sunburn on my shoulders - go figure! Afterwards we went back to his place and sat out on the balcony eating Klondike Bars, his freezer staple. So good! The second he said the words "Klondike Bar" my eyes got really wide and I started salivating a little.
On my way home I stopped by Target to pick up a couple things. Target always makes my day a little brighter. I found some cute, giant, pink clothespins in the dollar section to use as passes in my classroom! And speaking of Target, since we are trying our best to save every penny now, I have come up with a Whole Foods-Target compromise because my grocery trips were getting quite pricey. All of our produce, meat and dairy I'm going to get at Whole Foods, and then any other staple, cereal, bread, pasta, etc, I'll get at Target. That will even things out a bit cost-wise and we'll still get to eat healthy!
