A Day Off Equals a Shopping Spree............
Yesterday my Farmer gave me the day off. Yep, that's right, he needed parts and supplies from the valley. (read You know you're married to a farmer when) I was more than eager to take on this task. I really did need a day off. To get the supplies we needed, I had to go to the valley which is about a 2 hour drive. I went alone and it really was a relaxing day. First off, I got to listen to my music, had it as loud as I wanted it, and sang as loud as I wanted to for 2 hours down and 2 hours back. Then the shopping. I made sure I picked up his supplies first, so I would know how much money it was going to cost. Then I went shopping for myself; and spent 10% of what the supplies cost. I think that's fair, don't you? Some trips I have spent more than 10%, it just depends on what I feel I'm worth that day. HA!(and maybe what sales I find) And lastly I got to go out to lunch. Huge treat for me. But the funny thing is, while I was sitting in the restaurant waiting for my food, a local couple came in, sat down, the waitress said "what's the special occasion?", and the husband (this is when I knew he was a farmer) said "I needed parts". HA! You SO gotta love the farmers and this life..............
