DAY FOUR: 9/13/09

Sunday today and we treated it as such. Matt got up around 9:30 and I sent him off for donuts. He then went off for coffee by himself while I stayed in and watched HGTV. I got a bit woozy so called him for orange juice and took a rest. The housekeeper came by twice but I finally just told her to switch towels since I could not seem to get up the energy to do anything. I think the combination of heat and green chile caught up with me.

We planned to shop at the Jackalope today and see a movie. The Jackalope has a combination of souvenier items and local artist work. One booth contained clay items made by a couple from Mexico. They made us a flower and stem and gave it to us for free. I told Matt to buy something, too, so we got a small cow playing a fiddle. The man gave us an information sheet and welcomed us to visit them in Mexico. The information sheet told us his mother made the first chia pet.

We enjoyed a sandwich at the original Schlotsky’s Deli (I had the original sandwich, as it only seemed right). We tried to find a park so we could call home but didn’t have much luck. We drove around some of the outlying neighborhoods, in search of said park, so we got to see some local housing and a very colorful cemetery. We ended up at Border’s for about 15 minutes and then went to the movies. We saw “Julie and Julia” which was absolutely fabulous! I told Matt afterwards that I wanted to buy it and he thought I meant the cookbook.

Tonight, we are staying in and relaxing since we have been so busy.
