i'm waiting on bathtime so just a quick note. today has been pretty good for a sunday. mom got me up early and said i had to hurry up and get ready because we were going on an adventure. oh really? so she got me dressed. i noticed dad was having some toast. i want toast. mom made me a slice of toast with pineapple jam. oh it was tasty. after toast everyone got in dad's car.
dad drove us through town. town sure is dark. where are we going in the dark? we stopped outside erin's house. she came out and jumped in the car next to me. where are we going? where are we going? no one will tell me.
dad drove for a bit and then parked the car. we all got out and mr alec was behind us. hello mr alec. where are we? we're at the carboot sale. oh ok.
i walked around the carboot sale with mom. at every table i saw something to buy. buy this mommy, buy this mommy, buy this mommy. mom was not buying anything. she said we had to hunt out the cool stuff and we would only be buying cool stuff. we are not buying stuff just to buy stuff. humph. so we walked around and around. one guy had a huge box full of cars. i dug around and pulled out a cool looking lorry. buy this mom! mom looked it over. um, no. it's just a cheap piece of junk plastic. but i want it. put it back. mom would not buy the lorry and i sulked about it. we walked around some more. we stopped at this table. mom pulled this weird looking animal out of the pile and showed it to me- how would you like this as your new friend? no! put it back. i do not want to buy that. mom bought the weird thing anyway. i yelled at her and tried to put the animal back myself. I DO NOT WANT THAT! mom said- tough, i do. he will be my friend. i got super mad at mom. after we had walked around and seen most of the stuff mom said since there was no real cool stuff, i guess we can go buy that plastic truck. so we walked back to the man. i dug the lorry out of the pile. mom asked the man how much for it. he said 50p. mom said 50p! no way, too much. i'll give you 25. the man glared at mom and eventually said- fine. so mom gave him some money and i got a new lorry.
after that mom and i treated ourselves to a bag of fresh made donuts. oh they were good. we met up with everyone and then it was back to the car.
that was the most interesting part of the day. mom's been hogging the tv and making me watch some program on the history channel all about america. ugh, so boring. i've been playing with my toys. now it's time to get ready for bed
