Morning all. Happy Hump Day. But honestly, it feels like it should be Thursday by now...
Ceejay - I'm going to MO at the end of September for my mom's b-day. Re WW, I'm still going to meetings at work. It might be nice to re-read The Great Gatsby before you watch the movie so you can refresh your memory of it. I still think it's funny that I could have sworn I read the book way back when and when I started reading it, I realized I hadn't. Wonder what book I was remembering instead?? At least someone's close to their weekend!!!
Mel - Hope you get to be outside in the good weather for a bit today.
Hellos to the rest of the Worldlies.

After work, I took a different train line and met bf up on the "north shore" to look at a headboard we'd found on craigslist. Just what we wanted, in great condition, and a great price. I still like the queen headboard that we originially bought with our bedroom set better, but this king headboard is very nice and is nicely contemporary.
We actually managed to fit it into the back of the loaner SUV we had from the dealer and get it home without too much trouble. Interesting trip because the people selling it had a house in a very rich area and the house was huge, the property was huge and it was literally across the street from homes that are right on Lake Michigan. Lovely view. Don't often get to see up close and personal how the 1%'ers live.
Next step for that headboard - aside from a good dusting - is to buy the thingies that let us attach it to our sleep number bed - apparently our bed doesn't have a traditional frame, so we need to fork over some $$ to buy some sort of adapter.
After that, bf went off to the dealer to drop the loaner and pick up our car - it had three different things repaired, and the bill sure reflected that. But it's generally been a good car. Sure hope it continues to be.
Nothing else to report, so I'll post. Have a great day everyone.
