UGH

I lost my wallet yesterday. Before Triple S left for work, I looked through the car, to no avail.  So I spent my morning calling where I lost it, figuring out what I needed to take to motor vehicles, getting my cell phone info together, checking my credit cards. I got Bea all bundled up for our 20 degree weather and into the car. Only to find my wallet. In the car.

Since we were already out of the house, I figured we should go somewhere, so we went to a small local grocery store. But Bea fell asleep (something she refused to do just a short 30 min prior, in her bed, warm and snuggly) so we sat in the car for half an hour. If I had brought my laptop I could have worked!

This recent thing of napping in the car is not good for my miles-per-gallon. I always thought it was fortunate that the places I like to go are close to where we live, but now I need some long distance errands! OR everything *everything* needs to be drive-thru.

And now here I am procrastinating from editing a manuscript that has lots of English words in it, but that doesn't read at all like English. I think this one will be billed at top rate!

One of the reasons we love the Sit-N-Stroll is that taking it in and out of the car does not wake up the sleeping baby. We've used ours for 4.5 years now, at home and traveling - great for planes, taxis and subways. Definitely worth the money!

This sounds very much like something I would do. I'm glad you found your wallet, and I hope Bea had a good nap.

Glad you found your wallet in the end. I hate that panicky feeling when I think I've lost something!
