Slow day…
The internet is disappointing me today! LoL, I am soooo bored.
Anyways, this weekend me and Jose made a trip to the Wal-Mart in Council Bluffs. That’s the most Latino-ized Wal-Mart in the area, and since we were looking for Mexican movies, it made sense to look there!
We didn’t find the Verduleros nor did we find Los Albaniles. Jose found a couple of movies, and told me to pick one. We decided on the DVD with Polo Polo as the star, and I was very pleased! For $5, you get one DVD with three flicks on it. We started with movie #2, La Lecheria De Zacarias.
Very funny movie! LoL, it was very crazy and lots of boobies, but I enjoyed it.
I figure we’ll finish watching the other two movies this week, and then we can make another trip to Wal-Mart on Saturday!
For real… For $5, you can’t go wrong!
Its just been a really lazy kind of day.
This morning I went to Once Upon a Child in search of some clothing for Isabel. She’s my big girl, wearing size 7 at four years old! She has hardly anything on her side of the closet, compared to Olivia’s! Olivia gets all of the hand-me-downs, though, AND I find a lot more 3Ts/4Ts at the thrift stores and yard sales than size 7s.
I didn’t find anything for her. And even though I vowed not to buy Olivia any more clothes, I ended up buying her a super cute red/white/blue dress for the 4th of July (complete with red/blue hair bows!) and a striped sun dress from Childrens Place.
(sigh) Bored, bored, bored…
Ooo… today, I freecycled something for the first time in YEARS. The first time I used Freecycle was back when Izzy was a baby and I gave away a stroller and high chair. Today, a lady came and picked up a trash bag full of clothes the girls don’t fit into or that I didn’t want to pass on to Ollie. I tossed all the stained/torn items as I was cleaning out their closet yesterday, and bagged up the rest. All of Izzy’s clothes from fall/winter that I want to save for Izzy I folded up and put them in the top of the closet.
Boring, huh?! LOL, enough rambling…
Adios!!!

Grupo Control – El Jueves 3 de Julio!
I know I say I want to go to practically every single dance that comes up, but believe me when I say I really, really, really want to go see Grupo Control. They are probably one of the 1st Spanish groups that I actually liked. And, for sure the first Spanish CD that I bought! They came to Omaha a while back, but it was a 21+ show, and I was 19 at the time. And they came last year while I was in Mexico.
But, I’ve gotten lucky! They will be at the Guacamaya on Thursday!! Whoo-hoo!
I promised to myself I would never go to another big group at the Guacamaya after we went to see El Potro De Sinaloa, but this is different. I can’t miss Control.
Jose told me to go, since he HATES Control with a passion. Um, yeah, because it will be a load of fun to go all by myself! If I find someone to go with me, I’m so there!!
We’ll see what happens.
