First of all - love your last post J. You should be inspired by your mom. She's a dedicated, hard working, loving person. I hope all teens can be inspired by their parents.
I got a surprise cheque in the mail today. My grandma passed away about a year ago at the young age of 102. She was very ready to go! She didn't have much of an estate but the little she had was just divided up to her children and grandchildren, now that all the legal stuff was finally taken care of. Grandma had a large family so the cheque wasn't large but it came in handy while I had an unexpected time period in town to waste while I waited for J. to finish getting tattooed tonight (henna - it's okay). I stopped in at a store, just to browse. I left half an hour later with the inheritance gone and my closet four tops richer. (I told you, it wasn't a large cheque). I'm not usually an impulse shopper but it felt kind of nice to receive that money and splurge by buying myself a treat, just for the fun of it. I don't condone blowing an inheritance in one shopping trip but tonight, I did! Now I'm done shopping for awhile :) A.
