Not for me, thanks!

I haven't been sleeping too well for the last few days due to a combination of arthritis and sciatic pain and now the lack of proper sleep is catching up on me. My eyes are very puffy, I find it hard to concentrate and every move is painful so today I decided to go out to get some fresh air and get some more milk.
The weather is much milder now as all the snow is gone and last night we had a lot of rain too so I put on my hat, coat and gloves and set off. The local newsagents is still closed until tomorrow so I walked across Castle park to the shopping centre. There were lots of people about loaded with carrier bags from various stores taking full advantage of the sales but to be quite honest, I can never understand what people see in them.
Perhaps it's because I have rarely found anything I liked, or found clothes and shoes in my size. Usually the stuff they have on sale is either too big, too small, rubbish that has been brought in specially for the sales or things that I paid full price for a week or so before. Not only that, even the sale prices in the posh shops in the new shopping centre are way out of my reach. Neither can I understand how people here can afford to spend so much right after Christmas because I know that most of the wages around here are not high yet people seem to have an endless pot of money. Perhaps I should ask them their secret, maybe I'm missing out on free money. More than likely they've maxed out their credit and store cards which means they haven't really got any bargains but will end up paying several times as much for their goods!
Anyway, I bought my milk and walked home but I'm still feeling very tired so I think I'll have an afternoon nap when the washing machine has finished it's cycle.
