Just tooling around
My birthday is tomorrow, so my son and his Uncle gave me a little bit of money to go shopping or do whatever I wanted to do with it. Oh I thought of a million things I could do. I could get my hair done, I could get a pedicure or a manicure. Or..my absolute favorite store to shop in is Lowe's Hardware Store. We're talking tools, baby, tools!!!! I get as excited about a new tool as most women do over a new pair of shoes.
So getting back to my garden that I made a few weeks back, and the little white picket fence, some of the pieces of the little fence needed to be stapled together to get them to fit perfectly. So I got a super duper heavy duty stapler. I mean this baby will staple anything. There are so many projects that I'm going to be able to use this stapler on. I can even build a new custom headboard now. I can reupholster some furniture. I can make picture frames. Wow. The list is endless! A new tool!
A few years ago I went on vacation to see my sister in NC and found a sale on a cordless drill that was just too good to pass up, so that was the only souvenir that I bought on my vacation and she had to ship it back to me. I'm always working on projects around the house, and you gotta have tools! Guys know this. That's why they always get the cool tools for presents and we women get a blender. Well, I have to do all the projects myself, so I'm happy when I get tools. I'm way past the point of thinking duct tape can fix anything.
Oh, and I also found a great sale on those new florescent bulbs, so now I can change every single one of the light bulbs in my house to save energy and they are better for the environment. Those bulbs also last a really long long time! So now I'm happy. I got a new tool. Saved the environment. What more could you ask for in life to be happy?
