Momma Drama

Spent the day in Grand Rapids. And not doing the border in Trent's room.

I needed to shop for bathroom *stuff*.....and boy did I shop. Dave's favorite thing to do. Maiya was with us, and she was a peach. Linens & Things loves me right about now. I can't say as I've ever broken out in a cold sweat while writing a check to pay for any purchase. Until today. We ended up with a double towel bar, two glass shelving units, a towel ring, toilet paper holder, 2 robe hooks, new shower curtain, hooks and liners, some guest towels that match the shower curtain, new wastebasket, cup, toothbrush holder, and soap pump that all match the other stuff (beige with soft green ivy and some burgundy berries throughout.) I really splurged and got some Brita filters (ha!) and a nice green candle and some new lotion to put in there too. Four. Hundred. And. Sixty. Eight. Dollars. I shit you not. What a freaking racket that matching shit is. It is very, very pretty though. Who in their right mind pays $26 for a toilet paper holder?!?! It wasn't over priced there....it was all the same at Lowe's and Target. I thought I was going to actually swoon at the checkout. I was half hoping they would deny my check for some reason.......I'm damn sure going to take pictures. And scrap them.

I really need to get into the mess we call the attic tomorrow. What kind of mother has no Easter decorations up and out yet? We need to go get my purchases from the antique store tomorrow and get some eggs for dying.

I spent yesterday at the antique stores, in search of an old pie safe that I could use in the bathroom. It sucks having no cabinets in there, and I need the dresser that we use in there for Trent's room. Struck out though. I did find a white, enamel top kitchen cupboard that I had to have and a black and white mixer with attachments. I spent way less money on those two items. Thank God for that! I don't think I had better spend any more money for the time being, or else my hunny will start frothing at the mouth. Which reminds me, I need to mail off a check for $550.00 for those TWO hockey playoff games. *Wink*
