So, today I went to Poland!

Yeah, I went again. And bought a ton of stuff. Again!

It was so much fun though. Long day, but fun. I woke up when it was still night! Really, I left my house at 5:30 am. I drove with two friends to 'the Polish Pottery town' (I don't know how to pronounce the place!). It was a 4.5 hr drive. On which I almost ran out of gas... Really, I pulled up to the pump and the needle was hovering over the red line! Wow, that was close. We discussed it and decided we only made it to the pump because we were all having an internal talk with God!

We shopped and the first place we went to was the one I NEEDED to go to! Last time I went, I found these awesome teapots/cups at this one store- the only place I found them. But of course I didn't buy them. So this time, that was my first purchase. And I bought 2! Then we hit another dozen stores and bought so much stuff the three of us filled my trunk.

I love everything I bought. And it makes me sad that it is just going to go down to my basement. All my Polish pottery is wrapped up and in boxes because I do not have room for it in this house. I cannot wait to actually use it. Heck, I cannot wait to be able to look at it! Because it is all so dang pretty!

On our drive home, I was just so happy. I got to spend a great day with two awesome ladies. And then I got to spend 4 hours driving home with them, talking. I think I talked about every hot topic in the world today. Politics, religions, races, counselling... You name it, we discussed it! And that was nice to have intelligent conversations with women and not worry about stepping on toes.

Yeah, it was a pretty great day.

Oh, and your Irish lesson - Even the Polish people love the Irish, the shamrock spoon rest I bought is proof! Ok, not really a lesson. But I am tired!
