Llamas! One step closer....

Another weekend gone. I'm not looking forward to work tomorrow, no fun.

Saturday was the pet expo! It wasn't a very big expo and frankly I was a little disappointed. But it delivered one thing, llamas! There were all sorts, probably about 20 of them. They were cute. I learned about the many things to do with a llama. Apparently you can get them to carry stuff on hikes, they don't mind. You can teach them to pull things, like a sled and apparently you can teach them to do tricks, like fetch and lie down. I learned how to care for a llama, and what they need etc. Too bad llamas don't fit in condos. One day I'll have room for one, but at least now, I'm one step closer.

I said apparently they like to do tricks because we sat and watched a llama relay race and the llamas didn't look too impressed going through an obstacle course. One didn't seem to care but the other 6 didn't really want to be doing it.

Darrell and I went shopping on the weekend as well. I'm to the bottom of the barrel on my sports equiptment. I've needed new running shoes for over a year. The last ones I bought I threw out, since they rubbed against my right big toe nail and it ended up falling off. It grew back, but yeah, totally gross. And only the one foot for some reason. I found some new Nike ones this weekend and wore them all over today, to break em in before I take em running, and I noticed they rub a little too. So I cut that toe nail as short as I can and see if that makes a difference. But it's so weird, any runners out there know why this happens, on only one foot? I bought roomy sneakers this time and everything!

I also got a new racing swimsuit. It's time to go back to the pool. I was disappointed at the selection of racing swimsuits in town, it was truly dismal. I found one, but it's not very exciting, black with the a blue strip and racing back. Oh well, it suits my purposes and is not see through, it has everything I was looking for.

Today we did some midtown wandering, to break in the new shoes ;) I found my new favorite top, a short sleeved turtlenecked brown sweater dress. So cute and comfy and warm. It goes nice with my skinny jeans, which I'm still not used of wearing. It takes a while to get used of them after wearing over 10 years of flares and bell bottoms.

Tonight Darrell made me supper and I relaxed all my sore muscles in the hot tub. So relaxing, and so nice not to cook.
