We woke up to a clear sky, beautiful view, and eggs, bacon, sausage and hot chocolate for breakfast! We went back to the bike shop this morning because we had gotten an extra cassette and when Joe replaced the chains, both cassettes accepted the new chain so we didn't need to replace those (sometimes it will skip if it needs to be replaced). Returning the extra cassette saved us some money this month and made it so we didn't have to carry it too. Dave dropped us off near Wal-Mart, the Mall and Value City so we could finish up getting the last few things we needed while he went to help at the studio. The mall was really neat because there was a movie theater, an ice skating rink and a bowling ally in there! We were able to find a pair of shoes for each of us right where I new we would, at Payless. I am super excited about my shoes because they will somehow go with all my dresses, which was hard because one of them is navy blue, so black wouldn't have looked to good. We went over to Value Villiage again today and I was able to find a pair of jeans and a shirt for a good price. The last two things we needed were a belt and white t-shirts for Joey. It was a workout trying to find a wardrobe for both of us. Either way, I had fun going shopping since I hadn't done any clothes shopping in a really long time; Joe on the other hand didn't have quite as much fun as I did. When Dave came to pick us up, we offered to help at the studio if we were needed, so that's what we did. Although there wasn't a whole lot we could do, we did get to help a little. It has to be so hard to decide what to take with you and what to sell when you have been working on carving glass for so many years. Dave took us back to the house and I spent the rest of the day on the deck enjoying the view, sunshine, playing with Jack, and catching up on my blogs since I was so far behind; Joey watched a movie or two and just relaxed. Dave came home with pizza for dinner! Another fun day. I am glad that we have everything we need for the cruise all ready to go. Yay! Hopefully we can leave tomorrow to ride to Homer, weather permitting.
