Fleet week!

Finally - another item sold! Today I shipped out my LV accessory and the money is waiting to be deposited into a bank account! Yay! Now if only I could get the last big purse item to sell..that would be fabulous. And I swear, this weekend I'm really going to take photos of all the jeans/makeup to sell and get the ball rolling on that! I do have a gal interested in about $90 worth of makeup..so that would be another big help as well.

Today starts San Francisco's fleet week - so if you are out and about in San Francisco and hear a huge noise - look up! If you are fast enough you just might catch some of the blue angels flying overhead. Courtesty of www.visitfishermanswharf.com, here's a list of events going on this weekend:

Yay for all this - and a lot of it is free! Very excited - I just hope the weather stays good here in the bay area so we can enjoy a weekend outdoors.

Yesterday I found out that one of my closest friends is in the hospital and will need some physical rehab for her legs. I'm thinking of sending her a little care package - some cards, maybe some candies, and an eyeshadow that she really liked when she stayed with us. I wanted to save the eyeshadow for Christmas, but I figure she may need the pick me up now.

Anyway - the jets are flying overhead again so I'm going to run to the windows to look out - I swear this never gets old!

tiny sale plus free ice cream!

Thursday Thursday. Last night brought the return of our roommate home. I can't wait to sit down and talk to her tonight about her adventures in Africa! Plus girltime and galtalk will be good again too.

Today I sold another item - just a bracelet for 35 but every little bit helps. I think I'll go ahead and add the 35 to my fun fund. That'll bring the total up to about 80 - but its still growing! Today I'm also shipping out my bag sale - it's a little bittersweet but at the same time I'm not feeling any major remorse. I may sell off another balenciaga bag - we will see though. I do know that my tomato day will never leave me - that bag was such a steal and I love it. But obviously if push comes to shove and I ever needed money that I would sell it.

This weekend will be exciting - it's my 10 year grade school reunion. I know - it sounds weird, but since I went to Catholic school and spent 9 years with these people it will be good to catch up. My best friend will also be staying overnight with us - so poor BF prolly won't sleep since we'll be up laughing like morons. But that's okay! Laughter is good. So there will be dinner and drinks - yay!

Also - today is free ice cream day at coldstone! Today is the world's largest ice cream social
