Our Lowe's Addiction

We should definitely know better... than to EVER go to Lowe's. It's absolutely impossible for us to go through that store without finding a zillion things we have to have. Costs us SO MUCH money and time! We just love that place- the smell of wood, the fun house projects... the outdoor gardening section. This last weekend, we ran there for just a couple things. Jim really did have to get a small plastic elbow for a drain that broke. Ok- our total with tax could (keyword) have been less than $1. NO- not that easy. As we were walking out, Jim verbalized what we both knew- we just purchased about two full days worth of work for ourselves. What can I say- we can't help it!
So, we spent last weekend in the yard planting grass around our shop and four new trees! A beautiful maple, oak and two sweet peach trees. Of course, we're so excited! Sunday night, we received the first rain (downpour) we've seen in months. We're just hoping it didn't wash all of our seeds away. Guess we'll find out!
As Granny told me this week- you work to make more work. Doesn't make sense, but it's true. I'm sure the boys are thrilled with the extra mowing that will need to be done once the grass is up! Maybe, they haven't put it together yet!
