Part of my "blah"dom was spent having a pity party of one bemoaning the fact that I can't decorate or have cute little things around the house because there's just no room. Oh woe is me...I suffer so.
So I forced myself into some clothes, got in the car and went in pursuit of some retail therapy. After a little lunch with me and my best friend, the Kindle, I walked over to Shopko.
There I met a sweet little metal bird that was half price. Hmm, he made me smile...he's lightweight and not easily broken. Sold.
Then it was time for a trek through Michael's. Here I stumbled across a cute little wooden box that looked like it would fit nicely on my kitchen countertop. Yup. It was just the right size and now I have a place for some cat food, cat treats, cooking spray and Fit vegetable cleaner. I debated painting something brighter, but kind of enjoy the soft bluish color as it is.
I was feeling much better by the time I got to Hobby Lobby. There I found a little metal sign for my kitchen area. This is perfect for me, because Left Brain is the chief dish washer in our RV.
It turned out to be a fine day after all.
Long Live the Queen of Blahs
Nothing beats retail shopping except going with a bud.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you got some retail therapy! Cal Italia pizza did it for me! Okay, a couple IPA's didn't hurt. When we get together in Mpls we'll have to do a little TJ for old tyme's sake.
ReplyDeleteThere you go. I love that bird. The key out of Blahs is to find the muse. It leads the way to the light.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, I love love your little birdie!! He's adorable. What a great way to get over the blahs. I think I could use a day of retail therapy too. I'm itching to get near all the new plants and large bags of dirt and other garden goodies. Hmmm, I had planned on getting rid of a few more dust bunnies today, but maybe I'll take Pogo and go shopping. You have a wonderful day, hugs, Edna B.
