Forgetful Amber

Today I got off work early- that whole no work= no hours thing catching up to me. It's pretty cold outside but since I've missed some walking recently I knew I had to go. (Unfortunately, the DVD we purchased has no sound for some strange reason and I will have to see if I can return it.) While driving home I decided that to make today a little easier to do, I would have a destination and walk from my house to this destination and back.

So I chose the post office. We ordered a couple things that we need a little while ago- back when we felt like we had money- and they should be arriving any day. As soon as I got home I pulled on my backpack then grabbed my weights and headed off.

One note about the weights: I apparently have really wimpy arms right now. Within two blocks my arms were feeling it. My arms may be a little sore tomorrow but it will be worth it in the long run.

So I walked to the post office and on the way there I passed the library and realized that I had the wrong bag to have my library card. Too bad, because I want some new books to read. That's ok, tomorrow or Saturday I will plan to walk there and then carry around those books in my backpack for the rest of the walk. With that happy thought in mind, I continued on the the post office... And got there only to realize that I forgot my PO Box key! It was at house in my messenger bag along with my library card! I'm such a dork!

I took a slightly more round-about way back but had to give up on the weights and put them in my bag when I was still less than half-way home. Maybe next time I will be able to use them longer. I called Branden when I got here and it turns out he'd already stopped by the post office today, anyway.
