Good Bye Harry Potter

Yesterday, I DID get my car cleaned out!! YAY!! It feels good to have a clean car again!

I also worked on the pictures that I was downloading to my computer. Whew! They take forever! I don't know how often I will be doing THAT!

Miranda ended up coming home around 11:30. I wasn't expecting her to. We had talked about going to see the last Harry Potter movie together in the afternoon, but we couldn't agree on a time. She had a hair appointment at 2:00pm. When she left for school, yesterday morning, I didn't expect her to come home until AFTER her hair appt.

But, like I said... she came home after school instead of staying in town. She then asked me if I still wanted to see Harry Potter. I said YES! (It was a rainy, yucky day yesterday. A perfect movie day!) So, we agreed on a time that would work -- 3:30pm -- and headed to town. I dropped her off at the hair salon and went over to the movie theater to buy the tickets, in case they were sold out when we showed up at 3:30! After that, I went to the book store to browse while I waited on her to call me when she was done getting her hair cut.

I wanted to look at the NYC books -- (If you follow my other blog, you now know where our other vacation destination will be!!). I had gotten a really good one from the library that had a pull-out map in the back, and I wanted to see if the book store had one like it. They didn't have THAT particular book, but they had plenty of others! So, I grabbed a few that looked good and found a comfy chair to sit in so that I could look at them. I finally settled on one and headed for the check out. The store was a bit crowded, for whatever reason, so I had to wait in line for a few minutes. I hate that because I end up "browsing" while I am standing there and I see LOTS more things that I want to buy!! But... I did good. I didn't buy anything else!

Right after I got back into my car, Miranda called and said that she was done. YAY! On to Harry Potter we would go!! 

The movie was not crowded like we had expected. I think everyone had gone to the midnight premiere the night before! Ashley did! So, that was good. We had good seats for the movie!

I was pleased with this last EVER Harry Potter movie. Ashley had said that she was disappointed in it. But, Miranda and I thought it was GREAT! The end was totally different than what I expected and that made me very happy! I even got a little teary-eyed when the credits started rolling!

It warms my heart that Miranda enjoys hanging out with me and WANTS to do things with me! Even tho I shouldn't have spent the money to go see the movie, I couldn't say no to her wanting to see it with "me".  --- Plus... I really did want to see it! **Smile**

When we got home, we watched the first Harry Potter movie!! It's still, by far, my favorite!
