Saturdays

So it's Saturday, and it's been a good day so far.

This morning I weighed myself (i've been eating well this past month or so) and I lost 2 more pounds, which puts me to a 13 pound loss! I was very excited. I thought I wouldn't loose anything because I had cake and some crap this week. But i'm very happy and grateful I lost 2. :-)

While watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding, amazing movie i'm sure you know, I made myself a change purse! My wallet isn't huge, so the change in the little back compartment was bulging out. So I made a cute, little cow print change purse. I had th
e extra material laying around. Here's a picture:It's a kinda dark picture, but you can still see it good. I love it!

Restart

Hello blog world. I'm Dana . :-)

Now that we've met, i'm just going to dive in.

So i'm sitting here on my computer, listening. There's fireworks going off in the distance. At first, I was fooled, thinking it was thunder. But nope, just fireworks...2 weeks before the forth of july. The weather in good 'ol michigan (and everywhere around the great lakes) has been crappy. i haven't washed my car in weeks because one day it will be beautiful out, sun shining, lovely breeze and temperature, and then the next day, cloudy, cold, and raining. But I guess that's mother nature for you.

Today, I went to PetCo and this little pet shop called Critters with my friend Brendon. He wants to buy, get this, a chocolate chip starfish. We finally found them, after looking in the millions (exaggeration) of fish tanks, and it really does look like a cookie or something with chocolate chips on top. Here's a picture:

I've never heard of a chocolate chip starfish before. That's a interesting name for a starfish. We found him at PetCo. Brendon also wants to get a little Nemo fish too. They were really cute.

Then we went to the store Critters. It was a darling little store with the outside painted with fish and snakes and whatnot on the windows. Inside, holy macaroni. There's stacks and stacks of fish tanks with trillions of different colored fish. I've never seen anything like it in my life. They had really pretty neon pink and bright blue ones. They were beautiful. They also had a lot of birds, and little hamsters and mice, and turtles, and some snakes and lizards. This store had everything; or rather, everyone. I really wanted to see the dogs, so we went down a row with more fish and and at the end was the dog cages. Inside the dog cages, there was one dog. It was the cutest little puppy i've ever seen. He was semi-small, a light brown, and sad eyes. It reminded me of those Human Society commercials on tv, where they show the dogs in the kennels and they look like they're crying and the little boy comes by and pets the dog, and then just walks away. Those commericals just break my heart.

Anyways, I had to walk away from the little puppy (just like in the commercial :( ) and say goodbye hoping that someone, soon will come and adopt it. I didn't want to leave him, but i had to, otherwise, i would get too attached to him or her.

Well, that was what happened today. It was a good day.
