We did 3 errands this morning, not counting dropping Kate off to her bus stop at 7 am, and then walking the kids to school at 8:30.

We went to Target, Staples (when will the back to school shopping end?), and Safeway. I hate Safeway because they always have sales on ice cream. This time it was listed "buy one get one" (DH always says, knowingly, you mean "BOGO"?-- see he worked as a checker when he was in college -- the fastest checker ever so he says -- and feels compelled to give me the lingo of those "in the know".) Anyway, it really wasn't, and so when I was reviewing my reciet, I saw that I paid way more than I intended. I sat in the car for about 2 minutes debating... But then I went in to customer service and got my $7. I try to think of these things in terms of lattes. Would I go into the store for 2 free latte coupons? Even with a tired 3-year old? Yes? Then ok, go in the store.
