A Few Bullet Points, Since I'm Short on Time

• The people at Home Depot haven't escorted me out of the store saying "Ma'am, we think you've had enough paint chips" yet. Yet.

• Yes, you can go to home improvement stores every day for two weeks straight.

• "Florida Mango" is a pretty screaming bold color when you've been living with off-white walls for the past 10+ years.

• When you walk through Ikea shrieking "and it's only $3.99!" for two hours, somehow your cart will total over $300 when you check out.

• It's really hard to clean a carpet with a chubby baby on your back. They're not real patient about you marking neat stripes to be painted on the walls either, even if it is for their bedroom.

I have all this other stuff I'd like to post about, but there's just too much happening. Busy with house, work, etc. I'm reading a couple of really good (and disturbing) books on marketing to children that I'd like to discuss at some point (if I haven't decided that we need to throw out the TV, grow our own food, and live off the grid by then...), and oh yeah, a certain little Bug will be A WHOLE YEAR OLD on Monday!!!
