"DSW, Sear's, Macy's, Oh My!"

Yesterday was VERY BUSY. Mom had the day off and we decided that we didn't want to putz around the house all day. We went out! We discovered a new second hand shop along with a new Mexican Restaurant, "La Hacienda Vieja" - The Old Ranch. It was very good and VERY cheap. Including drinks, my lunch was only $7.45 before tax. We then headed to Arborland Mall where we visited Bed, Bath & Beyond, DSW, Dress Barn and Marshall's. The sales were good, but a little picked over. All of the Spring lines are out now (including swimsuits).

We decided we would head to Briarwood Mall to watch a movie. We arrived there at 4:15 and discovered that "Mad Money" (the movie Mom wanted to see) wasn't playing until 7:15. We had three hours to kill! We managed to handle it. I was happy to visit the T-Mobile store to get my phone fixed. The back panel was lost in the car accident and the battery has been falling out each time I use the phone. T-Mobile replaced the part in less than a minute for free. I was ecstatic!

Mom and I headed to Sear's for the Lands End sale. We each got a cable knit sweater for 70% off and then my Mom got her employee discount, 20% off, on top of that. Once again, I was ecstatic! I love a good bargain!

After dinner, we realized it was time to head down to the theater. We watched our 7:15 showing of "Mad Money" and then drove home. We arrived at the house around 9:40. We were exhausted, but happy to have been out in the sunshine all day. I slept like a baby last night and am off to the Village (downtown Ann Arbor) today to enjoy more sunshine.
