And My OCD Pays Off

Call me crazy (maybe not, because I might really be) but I just had a feeling today. An urgent need to check Toys r' Us just one more time.

I mean, we were in the neighborhood. Really, we were. I got my oil changed today at Sears and it's just across the road.

So on the way home, I told G that he was such a good little boy, Mama was going to get him a present.

Clearly, it's for me, but I'm all about justification right now.

I knew where the empty spot was where the water table had resided. It was still empty. Sigh.

But as I turned with a heavy heart to leave, I spied a stack on boxes on my left.

An entire stack of Arctic Water Tables!! They got a shipment this morning. I snatched that puppy up and marched right up to the checkout.

Now, it's all assembled and in our living room. I can't wait to get it outside with some water and see if G is even interested in it for more than five minutes.

Maybe I'll go test it out (play with it) tonight. That little walrus is calling my name.
