Sales!

Oh my goodness, Roberts Craft at Brickyard is closing. I knew about this for awhile because I have been hitting the 30% off and 50% sales. Today however Denise said, lets go to Souper Salad for lunch. No big deal, sounded good to me. So we are leaving and I am heading to the bank to get some cash and I drive by Roberts. I ask Denise if she sees what I am seeing and sure enough 75% off. Well I never made it to the bank instead I flipped a turn and we ran inside. We only had fifteen minutes left in our lunch but we split and hit our favorite aisles. I have been looking at these wicker and wood shelves that were priced at 150$ for my craft room. They stand about two feet tall and are probably 4 feet long but they have 4 wicker drawers also. They would be perfect in my craft room. I was not going to pay that much for them, today I got two for 80$. I never realised how much I loved a sale until then. The adrenaline was pumping and the smile was huge as I handed over my debit card. Yes that means I have to eat lunch at work the rest of the pay period and yes I have to stay home instead of going out this weekend but that's okay because saving 220$ was worth it to me. :)

Ramblings, Rumblings, Rimblings?

Perfectionist's should not be allowed to work on projects.

Teacher's should be given a nice test before being certified.

Sugar/honey/lemon does NOT belong in Tea.

Gourmet coffee should be able to be bought by the jug and remain hot until finished.

The extra few pounds from the holidays should melt away without exercise in January.

Snow is only allowed in the spring if it does not kill my flowers.

Husband's should not be left alone to have free reign in the home improvement store.

If your child can not behave don't take them out in public, also pay attention to what your child is doing in the store, it is NOT all right for them to climb to the top shelf.

Not all women like pink, stop making all women's sections be about the pink, especially in the spring.

Just because I live in Utah does not mean I ski.

Just because I am tall does not mean I play sports.

My kid may look like me but trust me she is much sweeter.

Tall girls do not have wear flat shoes.

A Typical Suburbanite Mom

I finally came up with something that describes me for my blog name. Now my friend told me that I am not typical but I like it because I am not. I do live in the suburbs now and I have the two kids and the two cars, two cats, two TVs, two computers, so in that respect I am typical. However I hate Wal-mart, as the same friend says "The Evil Empire", I hate large crowds, freak out if to many things go on at once and have one of the most convoluted families. I hate the color pink but love the color brown. I love dressing up but hate going places to show it off. I am just a contradiction. This is just me and this is how I am.
