It's 3am

December 9th, 2008 at 08:18 am

And I am at work. On my lunch break of course...wouldn't want to waste company time.

It is a slow night tonight. Only 10 patients and they are all sleeping well. I am antsy about all the money I have spent recently but as long as I stay on track it should be alright.

I'm looking forward to my 3 days off. There is so much I want to do around the house. Of course there is no appt. to get to this week...I seem to only schedule those when I'm nearly comatose from sleep deprivation.

M. is headed to Chicago on Thursday and Friday. I'm going to miss him. I have finally gotten used to him being at home and now I don't want him to leave! Irony.
Just last week he was driving me crazy.

I have come up with a list of some things I need to get in the near future. These aren't exactly needs or wants...they exist somewhere in the nether regions I guess.

1. 2 bras (for myself)
2. 3 pair underwear
3. New queen sheet set for my bed.
4. 4 new bed pillows. (one for each member of the family. And then I will throw away 4 older ones.)
5. New pair of jeans (I have one pair that are way too big.)

Those are my top five for now. Of course I could name more things but these items are venturing closer to the needs list at the moment. Maybe each week I will get one item that way it won't seem like I am spending so much!

    Maybe some after Christmas sales will have good deals on the things you need. And, regarding the sheets and pillows, isn't there some time of the year that is best for buying bed linens because they typically have big sales? Naturally, I don't know when that is for sure, but I kind of think it might be January or February. Maybe someone else knows?

    January came to my mind too for sheets and pillows. . . although I haven't bought a pillow in about 10 years so don't quote me.

    Linens and Things is going out of business, so you may be able to get some good deals there now while everything is on clearance. Good luck!

    I read something that said you should get new pillows every year. I have 20+ year old pillows and I think they're fine. But I did see someone snag some beautiful Ralph Lauren down pillows at an estate sale the other day for $3.
    Linens are fun to buy, but I think Linens and Things closeout is a rip-off. Prices are higher than before because the liquidators are running it.

    castle: yes I heard that too about replacing your pillows. Mine are two years old at most but some of them are stained and not that comfortable. We have 8 bed pillows (2 per person) I just want to replace half right now.
