Ikea again
My husband and I still refer to Ikea as "the bad place". We went again yesterday. But this time there was a plan.
I went online and made a list of every item and every item name we needed. Then we knew we would only need to go to the childrens' section on the showroom floor (which is right near the end, so we could skip past most of the showroom stuff). Once there, I got two hanging storage thingies for organizing my yarn, and a reading lamp for over my side of the bed.
Then we went down to the main shopping area. We got what we needed from the kitchen section: some cutting boards and a container for storing rice. We also got a big thermos carafe because I wanted one and it was really cheap. Then zip through to the bedding. We got what we needed. Matching blankets and new pillows. I needed a fresh new blanket and pillow because I hated having a blanket that was all used and full of other peoples' cooties. Larry and I are not good at sharing blankets, so we got 2 single size blankets instead of one king size. Then there is no blanket hogging.
Today I'm cooking a barbecue beef brisket. It was cheap at the store because it was really close to expired and wasn't looking so good. But once it has cooked all day in barbeque sauce and Coke, it should be fine.
I'm bored and tired. So I'm too tired to do anything, but really bored with doing nothing.
I guess I could go downstairs and see if Extreme Dodgeball is on.
