flowers for zoe

yesterday, after seeing a house that we deemed too small, angela and i stopped at this place that had $2 tulip bundles. totally wicked. we each bought 3. and i bought a new plant for beside my bed. it has adorable little flowers that are pink and fuschia-ish. the woman was from budapest... and angela and i loved her! she was a total riot. she's taking a flower arranging course, and we want to be in her class. :o) actually, we may sign up for a class together. which would be lots of fun. i commented on how it's weird that i have so much in common with a "40" year old mother of four, who happens to be the mother of a good friend. but that's cool. we sew and cook and house hunt together. and hopefully take a flower arranging course.

last night yvonne and i made a quick run to jeff's shelter to drop off shoes and clothes and toiletries. i totally forgot a bag with soap and cutlery in my car. which pisses me off, cause i thought i was finally done with it. anyway... there will have to be another trip bearing gifts.

oh, and i got a new phone yesterday. it took way longer to set up than i had wanted, and i was getting so annoyed i couldn't even work magic to get free stuff. which is really the entire point of getting a new phone. i did get a decent deal, and i changed my plan to weekends and evenings for free. so after 6, i'll be more than happy to take your call on my cell phone. now i should find a women's shelter to donate my old phone to.

today an apartment came up that isn't exactly what i want. it's one bathroom, and no den. so basically it's two bedrooms with a GOURMET kitchen. i can't resist. i need to look. it's also below the 850 sq.ft. that yesterday (after seeing the place) i decided to stick to. but how can i resist a gourmet kitchen? i can't. and it has a fire place and 2 parking spots. i could probably manage with one bathroom. hopefully i can see it tomorrow.

today will be making frozen lemon mousse (martha style) and housecleaning/organising. i hope i only need 11 lemons, because i seem to have lost one. maybe in my car, maybe not. oy.
