Playin' Hooky

On Monday, I played hooky from...well, um, my house--no laundry, no dishes, no cleaning, no running errands, no eating leftovers.  Instead I went with Dave to the northern suburbs.  He had a business meeting and lunch in Schaumburg at Shaw's Crab House which happens to be right across the street from the biggest mall in Chicagoland. 

Can you see where this is going?  I drove up with Dave and while he was at his meeting, I was at the mall.  I actually hadn't been to the Woodfield Mall before.  Fortunately, I didn't buy much it was more about me just looking around and walking all over.  I seriously ended the day with two blisters on my feet.  I didn't realize I would do so much walking or I would have worn different shoes.  After Dave finished his meeting, he picked me up at the Corner Bakery where I ended up eating my lunch, then we drove home.

We got home a few minutes after Ashley was dropped off by the bus.  She has a key and so had to let herself into the house.  When she realized I wasn't at home, she called me to make sure I was okay.  Isn't that cute?
