Today, I am fabulous!

Recently, I wrote about how I was having one of those days. Well, as not-so-great as that one was, this one is fabulous!

Today started with the boy sleeping until 8 am! This is almost unheard of in our house. If He sleeps until 7, I consider myself lucky.
After taking a shower and dressing a well rested boy, I decided to try on my new dress for The Body Shop at Home national convention. This isn't just any dress. I got this dress for $10 (originally $60) at NY and Co. It is a very cute dress. I normally wouldn't even look twice at the clothing at NY and Co., because they are an "average size" store, and I am definitly not an "average size" person. However, while on a trip to the mall, The Makeup Goddess let me in on a little known fact - NY and Co. started carrying plus sized clothing! You should have seen all the twiggy women I pushed out of the way to get to the sale rack! I was so excited when I found this dress on the sale rack for only $10, not only that but it fit! Just barely, but it fit. So imagine my pleasant suprise when I tried it on again today and it fit better than when I bought it! Oh happy day! I can't wait to wear it at the convention, I will look fabulous.

After breakfast, the boy and I took some donations over to the Milagro house. We were able to get a whole butt load of school supplies for less than $15 (thank you walmart and staples). I mean really, it's tough enough to be the homeless kid, but to also be the kid that had to come to school with out any school supplies? That sucks. So we took our donations over, and not only did we find our way there without a problem, but we also got a great parking space! Milagro house is in Lancaster City, a place that I am not only unfamiliar with, but not exactly comfortable driving in either.

We ran some other errands and then came home. The boy decided that he was hungry and ate 2 plates of leftovers! Yay! Then, miracle of miracles happened - The boy fell asleep at nap time! Will wonders ever cease? You know what that means? I was actually able to get things done! My list of things to do got shorter instead of longer! I was able to make my work phone calls (with much success I might add) without someone interrupting me every 10 seconds.

This has really been a fabulous day so far. I think I am going to continue in the fabulocity (is that a word) and go do some laundry.
