FOREVER 21

Mostly sunny with temperatures rising towards the low 80s. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph.

We had a little luncheon for someone at work today who is leaving. Everybody brought a dish. I brought an Italian Potato salad, an old recipe my mother has made for years and I don't even know where it came from. Some day I will post all of my odd recipes. It's cooked and peeled red potatoes, hot cherry peppers that have been seeded and chopped, chopped red onion and dressed with Italian salad dressing. I use Good Seasons dry mix that you make with your own olive oil and red wine vinegar.

That kind of made the day go by faster. I had some ta ks to accomplish for the Director of Nursing today sine the Assistant to the Administrator is still out sick as it the Administrator. She was quite impressed with my quick action for both tasks.

My replacement is going to work with me for 8 hours this week. It really should not take her that long to learn the system.

I went into work today at 10 and got done at 2:30 today I had a doctor's appointment at 3. I try to go to the podiatrist at least once a month. Since I am a diabetic it is important to make sure my nails are cut by someone other than myself, I can't risk getting a cut on my feet.

Got home and threw together dinner. Jumbo scallops sauteed in lemon butter and garlic, over rice.

After dinner I drove to my daughter's house and we went to the mall. She wanted to go into Forever 21. She picked out a few summer dresses to try on and we headed to the dressing room. There was no where inside her dressing room for me to sit so I stood outside her dressing room door and every time she had on something new she would throw open the door for me to see. She was occupying the first dressing room at the beginning of a corridor that had 24 dressing room. What a weird experienced that was. I would look down the aisle of dressing rooms and one at a time a door would fling open a petite little girl would step out, call to her friend maybe two or three doors down, she would step out, they would squeal at each other about how cute each one looked the they would run back in behind the door and do it again. This was happening with with two or three groups of girls. You never knew what door was going to swing open and who would step out wearing what. It is not the most sophisticated clothing store out there, my daughter says nothing is less than $20 and she certainly would not be shopping there if is wasn't for just a couple of sun dresses for weekend wear. This store was huge, I was exhausted after I left there. Stores should not be that big, it just makes you tired of walking around them. Plus they jam so much stuff onto a rack that you can't even look at each item. Geez was I frustrated.
