It’s the little things in life
Lee and I took a romantic trip to Target earlier this evening. I just love it when we get this special time together.
We had a short list of things we needed to buy; peanut butter, socks and underwear. Yes, we’re wild and crazy like that.
45 minutes and $250 later we walked out of the store. Wow, peanut butter’s gotten so expensive. Just kidding. Of course we bought things that weren’t on our list. Lots of things. When the cashier asked us if we found everything ok, Lee said, “Yeah, a little too well.” And they were out of Wii Fits or we would have been closer to $350.
But what’s sad about this trip is not the amount of money we spent (although that may bring me to tears). No what’s sad is how happy I am about my new socks. I love them. They are so comfy. They aren’t special socks. They are just Hanes, but they are mine. And they are pink so nobody else will wear them. They are just mine. I’m giddy about the thought of not having to share my socks. How sad am I?

What?!? No toes?
You should clip your nails. I love new socks with freshly clipped nails. Now slam a spoon into that new peanut butter. You’re set.

What’s their slogan…”wait ’til we get our Hanes on you”?

I experienced the same emotion when I bought socks for myself not too long ago. (First time ever buying a pair with a picture) It didn’t last long though, when my daughter started wearing them. Ahhh, C’est la vie.
