Another weekend gone by

I am clinging to these last moments of the weekend even though I am tired and should have gone to bed an hour ago. The idea that time seems like it speeds up as you get old is soooooo true! Add to that the shift to Daylight Savings Time. There just isn't enough time! I need that hour now!

I didn't do a lot this weekend. Half-hearted attempts at painting some tiny watercolor faces. I walked to Lynn beach, but turned back because my legs were way too cold in the rainy wind. Such a wimp! Didn't quite get around to doing my taxes. Since I moved back to a state with state taxes, I haven't been very motivated to get them done early. I did manage to bake a loaf of no-knead bread and spent a little time on work stuff to prep for a meeting tomorrow.

Saturday I went to Liberty Tree Mall mainly to visit the eyebrow lady. She was busy when I got there so I walked back to Old Navy. I don't know why I even bother with that place anymore. The quality is so bad now. Even the clearance rack has totally lost its appeal. What was interesting though is the old Walden Books space was replaced with a comic book store called Harrison's. They didn't have anything that couldn't be bought on Amazon or elsewhere for less money, but it was just exciting to have them there as opposed to Baby Gap, for example.

I thought about stopping off at North Shore Mall on the way home, but what's the point? It's funny, when I was totally broke I wanted to go shopping all the time. Now that I'm slightly less broke, it's the biggest chore in the world and I just can't find anything appealing. The problem is I like super duper plain clothes which for some reason are really, really expensive. i guess I'll just have to save up!
