I went to the Fredericton Mall on Saturday to pick up some dog food, lunch stuff and these wonderful drinks called "Monkey" that mom and I had tried when she and Richard visited us. Well I went to Zellers at first, but decided dog food and lunch stuff would probably be cheaper at Sobeys. So on my stroll to Sobeys I noticed a new clothing store called "Urban Planet", so I stopped in. I have been trying to change up my wardrobe a bit and wear things that aren't necessarily the first thing I like in a store (more of the same things I already own). So I went in and noticed a really hot dress, it's long and bright (red, yellow, black, white and orange). So I picked that up right away, it opened on Friday and as a promotion it was buy one item get the second 50% off on everything. So I tried on the dress.....liked it but wanted a second opinion...so I peaked out of my dressing room and looked at myself in the mirrors outside the changing room...I noticed two ladies (between 40-50) and asked them if it looked o.k. They said that it looked great and I should get it. So I decided to get the dress and went to find something else. I searched and seen some things that I liked, but were a little to much like things I already owned. I did notice some funky looking shirts with a scoop type neck and a real flowing fabric in a nice orange color. I tried it on and it fit well. I also got a free prestige card for a year (20% off). They LC didn't have any of the Monkey drinks, but I was feeling happy enough about my new shirts, so it didn't faze me to much. I got home and had the house to myself (Sam was at work). I watched some t.v and wrote a blog post. He surprised me and called at about 9-9:30pm and told me he and Jilha were on there way to pick me up. We went over there for the evening, a couple of their friends from Iran were there as well. We all sat around drinking and listening to some music. It was a nice evening...the spoke persian amongst themselves a little to much though. That was the only downfall. Sam and I got up this morning and he treated us to breakfast at Hannahs. Later on when we got home Amir stopped and picked us up to go to a lebanese restaurant here in fredericton. I got a salad that was really good, to big though I brought 1/2 home for my supper.They both got some platters of some sort. We talked and ate until about 3pm, Amir and Sam dropped me off at home and then Sam at work. I had an appointment to go do 2 hours of driving 4-6pm, so I waited around and it turned out that the actual time was from 4:30-6:30pm. The guy who taught me in class (Shaun) is also my coach in car. The car that I drove in is a Honda civic, a nice little car, but very touchy. I had driven mom's cavalier and Richard's malibu before and didn't really have a problem turning, but I cannot turn in this little Civic. I don't know what the problem is....I can stay at the speed limit, stay on my side of the road, follow at a decent distance, brake o.k, but when it comes to turning.... I suck!! When we finally pulled into my driveway he asked me if I had any questions, I said no...just next time I would like to practice turning more. I also asked if I would always be driving the Civic or if I could drive the Cavalier that he has for training. Thankfully he said that I could try the Cavalier and that he usually drives it. Driving in the city for two hours is exhausting! (Now I understand why mom doesn't like driving long distances) I have my next driving scheduled for 11:30am-1:30pm next Saturday. Hopefully I can do better at turning. BTW I have noticed.....that I am not receiving any comments from Susan.....I wonder....have you stopped reading my blog?....Is it no longer interesting to you?........(sniff sniff)......do you not love me any more? (tear) :) Come on..give me something.
