Last night, I took the two middle girls to get their athletic shoes. I had a coupon for Famous Footwear, plus they were running a buy one, get the second for 1/2 off promotion, as well as sales on many brands. (Wow - I'm thinking that the 'full' price would be quite scary!)

I asked how long the promotion was going, as I wanted to bring my husband in for some shoes, and the clerk said bring your receipt in and they make good on it. So I picked out some on-sale New Balance walking shoes. The girls each picked out some nice shoes. We're set!! (I also tried out my new shoes on a walk with my husband after we got back, and they are great.) I'll take my husband there soon to get his 1/2 off pair.

I got to sleep in a bit today, which was wonderful, as I've been teetering on the brink of a cold (back with a class of kids for a whole three days and arg!) Catching up on sleep (from a few nights of insomnia during the week,) and being diligent with the zinc has kept it from progressing. Actually, one more day of zinc, and I think it will be gone. Yay!

Another beautiful summer day here, so the daily laundry will go up on the line. I'm thinking we should tackle the garage, but my family may have other ideas, which is ok too. Grilled chicken and a pasta salad tonight - nice and easy. Enjoy your day and take care!
