How I spent my birthday.

 Ok so I know that my birthday was over a week ago but I had other things to post about so I'm just getting around to it.

I started is slow and easy with coffee and blogs. Then again, I start every morning like that these days. I decided I was going to go to the mall. The mall on a weekday morning is always nice because there aren't a ton of people.


I went to Bath and Body Works and they had full size body sprays on sale for $5.99 so I figured I would treat myself. Of course the next day everything was 40% off and I apparently also had a birthday coupon for a free item up to $9.99. No problem since Amanda and I were going to be up that way the next day anyway.

I also bought myself a new pair of shoes at The Shoe Dept. and a pair of pants at Boscov's and finally a couple t-shirts at Michaels. I only used 2 credit cards and didn't put much on either one so I didn't overindulge too much. I would say it was...


The mall was all ready for the Easter Bunny to arrive


While I was on my way to the mall I got a text from a friend asking if I wanted to go out for a birthday lunch. We met at Mi Scuzi's at the mall


After lunch I headed home and spent a relaxing evening at home. I did a little sewing and watched  a little tv. It was a really nice day.

What a great day!! We have no malls now, and the few around here are either closing or being torn down. I think it is a shame, seniors use them to walk in the bad weather.

walking the mall on weekdays was one of our favorite things to do, Bob and I when he could walk and that mall was closed and the door chained. we liked to eat the the food court because we could each go to a different place and get the food and then sit and watch the PEOPLE.. your day sounds perfect and yay for what you bought and where are the pictures?????

I am glad you treated yourself to some new things and then got invited to lunch at the same time. Happy for you.
Our mall closed too - the one closest to us. Such a shame.
