Plato's Closet

I skipped a few days, woops. I'm too good at this already ;) so after I posted the last time, we went to the commissary. We really stuck with ALL organic food and I discovered one of the best foods ever. I'm not too big of a fan of granola bars but needed something fairly healthy for snacks seeing as chips really weren't an option. I ended up getting a majority of Cascadian Farm products. Their Peanut Pretzel granola bars are delicious! I also got the chocolate chip. We purchased organic sugar since we were all out, and have a whole lineup of things to buy once we run out - that are healthier alternatives, of course! I feel better about eating these types of foods, and though sometimes they might be the same price but have less, I have to remind myself that you pay for portion control. People always want more for less but shouldn't sacrifice their health for that.
Since then, we've put up all the curtains we've bought back home in RI... finally. I'm such a slacker. We've also found a desk for the spare room - my new office/school/kittens room. I'll have to post pictures. The house looks good, besides the kitchen. I'm not too happy that we still have lots of ants running around, though we've found the main food source!!! Well, Ryan's patience has found. A broken open container of honey. No wonder they've been coming in from the window to the cabinet!!!! I've also been harassing the landlord, but we've really found about 15 ants since last night, which is a record. We had about 100 every 5 minutes no matter how fast we kill them. My kittens are getting smarter by the day. They love their momma. Their daddy, not so much. But when momma ain't around he's best! :) Sassy just came up and drank out of my cup. Yea that's too much, I'm gonna have to get some more water. We had burgers and salad for dinner. Didn't realize til I ate the whole burger that um, it was still red. It's a miracle I'm not sick right now. I'm pretty grossed out though. I finally got the clothes off my floor!! I put them in the storage thing that got sent to RI when I had meant to send it here. Today was pretty eventful. When I was putting all my things together last night, I got rid of some clothes. We went to Plato's Closet today and sold what we could. Got $30 for 10 pairs of shorts/skirts. I love it! I will be back there. It's a store run by a military couple, they buy and sell used clothes, but it has to be in good condition. Awesome stuff! The rest of the stuff we're going to have to find a Goodwill to donate to. I'd like to find a way to recycle here, but there doesn't seem to be anything at all. Guess I'm gonna have to do a search. I also want to find a farm so we can get our milk there, and find something for our meats. On the bright side, only a few weeks til we can go to the Clarksville Farmers Market!!! And next weekend is the military ball. We may or may not be going - even though we intended to. The weather has been a topic to talk about lately! Seriously it's been 95 degrees. Hot as hell. I had to buy a new bedspread today because my thick down comforter has been killing me while I sleep. My cats are maniacs though and are yelling at me to go feed them. So farewell, friends.
