The state of Illinois seems to have a soporific effect on me. I seem to be incapable of getting enough sleep. At 9 I’m still in bed and could sleep for a few more hours and then at noonish I need a nap. Of course this could be because I don’t get to sleep until after 1 a.m., but in SD I did the same thing and managed to get through the day without a nap. I hate napping too, it makes me groggy in the afternoon. But here in IL I feel like I could go right to sleep at any point of the day. I blame the corn pollen. Yep, that’s what it is.

Went to ‘Dulce Vita’ to get my hair done today. My friend Anne owns this great new salon and I have been made an official gold card member; that means big discounts for me on all of their salon and spa services. It’s good to have the right friends. Well, it pays to be supportive of your friends when they first start out on a new career. Will be going in for a massage soon.
After the hair appointment, J and I spent the rest of the day together. First we went to the hardware store for softener salt, a dehumidifier for the basement and some replacement light switches for several that have stopped working in the house. (I need a course in electrical, and I need it soon!) (Will attempt replacing switches myself tomorrow.) Then we went to CPK for lunch, it was very yummy. Then we wandered around Geneva Commons and tried stuff on at Banana Republic and Anthropology. Browsing and trying didn’t actually lead to buying but it was fun. Then we went and got pedicures to pamper our tired dogs and make them pretty and soft. Then we went to a movie. Well we tried to go to a movie but the projector was broken. They refunded our money and kicked us out. Overall though we had fun and we had some good mom/daughter talk.
Sorry to all of you who have phoned me and not gotten a response. I have a habit of setting my phone to vibrate when I go to movies and then forgetting to turn the ringer back on.
Dinner and a movie with the Ya-ya’s was great fun last night. We went to Vick’s afterward and had some fabulous pie and coffee.
That’s all for today. Nothing funny or spectacular happened today but it was a good day.
Off to bed…at 7:00 p.m.!?
