Day 35 - 42

Friday we went to the gym and watched some movies.

Saturday we worked on unpacking and put all of Tom's clothes in his closet. We also went shopping for a couple things.

Sunday we went to Northern Heights again. It was good. At the end of church they asked for some helpers for Awanas. I really wanted to jump up and yell "I'll help!" We have only been to the church 3 times. I don't think that they will let strangers help. I talked to Tom about as we walked to the car. he said that if they ask for help again next week I should talk to them. After church we went to Sonic for lunch and picked up some milk. We then came home and watched some movies.

Monday...I don't remember what happened on Monday.

Tuesday I went to the gym and cleaned the apartment. We were going to go to small group but it was really cold that day and Tom came home exhausted. We watched a movie and went to bed early instead.

Wednesday I paid the bills and went grocery shopping. Ok, Henry rant time. First of all it was expensive to shop at the Hyvee (one of the two grocery stores in town. the other one being the Thriftyway) After gathering most of the groceries I needed for the week I took them to the check out. Here comes the rant. If someone hands you reusable bags, one of them being a thermal bag, obviously they don't want paper or plastic and obviously they want the cold things to go in the thermal bag. Duh! And another thing, as the bagger it is your job to bag the groceries. That involves putting the groceries in the bags QUICKLY! Not try to make conversation, not flirt with the customer, just put them in the bags. This was the slowest unimaginative bagger I have ever come in contact with. Not only did he bag the groceries SUPER slowly but he also felt the need to try to flirt with me, even after I told him I was married! He also couldn't seem to figure out that I wanted ALL of my groceries in the bags that I gave him even though I told him that they would fit and I didn't care how heavy they were. Ugh! I am not going there again. After that I went home super grumpy and put the groceries away and did some more dishes. When Tom got home we had dinner and watched a movie.

Thursday I went to the gym. After the gym I went home to shower and change. I then went to the mall to find some new pants. As I was looking around I started to miss Beth Hansen a lot. She was one of my favorite shopping companions :(  As I made my way through the mall I came across the Radio Shack there and remembered that I needed to get a thing to plug into our desktop so that it could access the Internet through our  wireless modem. I changed my course and headed into the store. As I walked in I saw a sales associate walking out of the back and headed towards him. As I walked up to the guy I said "hi, could I ask you a question?" He just stared at me! He had a weird expression on his face like he was waiting for me to say more. I explained what I came for and he said " they are right there" pointing to some boxes with USB looking things pictures on the front. He gave me a weird look like "duh! you are standing right next to them" How was I supposed to know? I didn't know what I was looking for. That is why I asked! So I asked his opinion on which one I should get. I got the one he suggested, paid for it and left. The whole time he was giving me this creepy look like "what are you really here for?" What the heck?! Not going back there ever again either! After shopping I came home and did the dishes and started on the laundry. We had dinner and then watched a couple movies.

Today is Friday. Today we went to the gym again. The girl working gave us a hard time about Tom coming again. When I joined she said that I could bring guests three times for free. After that they had to pay $5 each time. I brought Tom once last week. That's it. Therefore he should be able to come 2 more times for free right? She was being kinda a jerk about it. After working out we went to Wendy's for lunch. Yeah, I know, kinda counter productive. Now we are sitting at home watching a movie.
