random rumblings of an wannabemerican

Jenny and I had a rather busy day today! 
It started with a grand idea to hit up costco together. 
Then Karen made a doc appointment for herself.  She was short of breath, and had a very sore throat.
Jen got stuck in a border line up. 
They decided to meet at Milion Smiles Playground instead of Karen's place.
Karen went to the doc where she learned she had tonsilitus, and only about 70% of her normal lung capacity.  the doc sent her to get ex-rays to make sure the lungs were okay.
Karen met Jen at the playground, the kids played for a bit, and then they were on their way.
Karen tricked Jen, and stopped off at Second Chance where they scored on some books, and shorts for Ali.
Then they headed to get the ex-rays done.  (they showed the lungs were A okay!)
Jen waited in the car with the kids, and Karen headed inside.  She emerged 25 min later, and htey were on the road again... the burb needed an oil change, so they stopped off, dropped off the car, and walked to the bank to get some cash.
When they returned, the burb was not done, so the kids played for a bit in the waiting room. 
Finally burb was ready, and away they went (finally!) to costco. 
They got their grub, the school kids gained a backpack each, and they hit the road... finally homeward bound. 
Phew! 
What an exhausting day!
