10% Off

31 Mar

Someone I love is addicted to OSH.  She makes stealth trips to this hardware store when I’m not around. Sunday mornings. Saturday at lunch.  During the week when I can’t tell.  Sometimes I don’t even know when she gets there.  All I know is that when I get home there are work gloves, paint, and yellow CAUTION tape strewn all over the place.

I don’t mind the addiction, but it amuses me.

Who gets up and first thing thinks, “Gee, we need sealer for the back patio?”

I don’t.

Who reads the Sunday L.A. Times and finds the most interesting piece to be the “10% off anything you can stuff in this bag on Sunday” ad? 

I don’t.

But she does.  I think she might need help someday.  I just hope she doesn’t come looking for me when she needs help painting.

    She says I should feel lucky that she only flirts with visits to The Container Store, because a full blown addiction to that would be much more expensive.

    I find this perfectly normal…..Spring is especially the time of year for projects that require SEVERAL trips to the hardware store…..
