Ikea cones


I forced myself to sit at the beach today, which was nice but always boring when there is no one to sit with and talk to. Everyone else was sitting around me with their friends and children and whoever else they went to the beach with. Last year I dragged Will with me every time I went, and even though he covered himself with 70 SPF, hats, and umbrellas it was still fun to chill at the beach with someone. Hmmmmmm, now I'm sounding lame. YES, maybe because I'm done with summer.
After that I came back and took like a 3 hour nap, which left me feeling groggy and moody and ick.
HOWEVER the highlight of the day was IKEA, I love that place.
And the best part was the end, the $1 yogurt cone:) It made everything all better.
That and this guy in front of us who was complaining about the lack of icing on the $1 cinnamon bun he was buying, he was being such a jerk to the young girl waiting on him. Like she iced each and everyone of those cinnamon buns and in the process purposefully skimped on the drizzle that goes across them. I just started laughing right behind him, obnoxiously loud. There are more important things to complain about other then $1 cinnamon buns, errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

And there you have it, the cone that saved the day!

Oh, and eventually I am going to get back into making things and being all crafty. I just lost the knack for a bit, and I have been trying to put together "The Creative Type" so I have been sidetracked and inspired BUT yet uninspired at the same time. Does that make sense???

you'll get back into your creating groove... I was getting that way and now I'm making stuff like crazy. So it goes!

HI! I would LOVE that alone time at the beach! (Dont have a beach here...lest you like salt flats :/ )

It really bothers me when people act like children about trivial things!
