Tax free weekend!!

This weekend everyone was out and about. The soccer fields had people all over them there was some sort of baseball tourney going on, the tennis courts were pact and I even saw a group of people playing cricket on the cricket field I didn't know existed. Overall, this weekend just felt like summer.

The new indoor/outdoor mall opened up this weekend but I didn't care to rough the masses so I headed to Academy for shoes and Khols for my shorts. The shoes I got are awesome! I spent the big bucks this time, 70 bucks normally I spend 30 at most on a pair I will keep for a least a year. This time went for something really comfortable and breaths. The climate cool addidas running shoes..They are practically made of mesh. Very nice.

After that I ran to khols to check out the sales they were having. Everything I looked at was at least 50% off. Thats my kind of shopping. I looked around for almost 10 mins before picking up 3 pairs of shorts and were out the door. I am not a good shopper. I don't really care what I wear as long as its comfortable. I get all the shirts and polos from work so I only go out to by short and pants. The biggest problem I have is that I am so short and I have such a big waist that all the shorts I wear look like capree pants and the when I said I don't mind what I look like earlier I didn't count capree pants in that statement. I don't like them on guys...They just look nerdy. So I cut my shorts and have my mom sew them to the right length. I got the best deal on shorts and now I am set for the next two years!!!

No more shopping! Yah!

There is a new IKEA store though in the mall and I guess I should go check out what everyone is talking about. I have yet to walk into one but apparently its a great store.

You didn't share how bad you guys got killed by the good 3v3 team on Sunday.

You'll have to share the IKEA experience with me, since I don't think Sweden knows about this stretch of Tennessee exsists.

PS: I knew the cricket fields were there.
