This past Saturday I met up with one of my best friends from college,
Laura Mercer Rada. I never knew how much I had missed her until we spent a few hours together. The last time we saw each other was November 11, 2006. That seems like forever ago!
Well we met up at Cracker Barrel. She brought her friend
Jessica aka Bubba along too. It was so much fun reuniting with an old friend and making a new friend too! We had a very delicious breakfast at Cracker Barrel and then decided to do one of mine and Laura's favorite things to do when we lived together.... Goodwill shopping! We hit up the Goodwill Clearance Center on Haywood Road. It is amazing! I want to give you warning though... You will probably feel like you need to take a shower after you leave there and you have to dig and search to find the good stuff. One of the things I love about the clearance center is that they have soooo many books! I was able to get books for my classroom collection. I got 44 children's books. Guess how much it cost...
$3.25! There are some well-known books I found too! I got
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? That book has a lot of memories for me.
I also bought a ride-on toy and a resting mat that I hope we can use at school. I got both of these things for $7.00. Sorry I don't have a picture of them. Laura ended up finding a bookshelf for $7.00. It took 2 men and ideas from Laura and Bubba, but they finally got it in Bubba's car.

Laura, Bubba, and MeI had so much fun with Laura and Bubba! I can't wait to do it again!
By the way, the Goodwill Clearance Center has everything 50% off on Sundays!
