Last week when I walked into my local Sallies .I immediately saw a gorgeous dining suite ,I literally went 'ohhhhhhhhhhh ' . Then I looked at the price tag and went' ...... , (insert not so family friendly word) ,so I gazed at it a bit longer and went around the shop ,that was the day I got the bread bin .
Anyway....... (can you feel the suspense ) two days later I trotted in there again , and there it still was ,just sitting there saying 'You need me ,you need me' . I said' Oh no ,,too dear sorry' in a firm sort of way in my head, and wandered off ,with only the tiniest of backward glances .
Soooo (are you sick of me yet??) I forgot all about it over the weekend ,too busy with my nose stuck in a book--Elizabeth Buchan - Perfect love ,she's a lot like Joanna Trollope .. . But today I popped in there on the way to school ,and it wasn't there . Or so I thought!! Went out to the back of the shop and there it was ,so I walked over to admire again , happen to notice the price tag and did a double take ,the suite had been dropped in price by a lot and I mean a lot!! so I thought, 'What is a girl to do ?' that took about a second ,and I was off to the counter before you could say table ....
I bring it home tomorrow . I'll put some pics up then. Got to love a bargain as they say, and no I'm not going to say how much because I don't think anyone would believe me !!! and of course now I'm thinking it's got about 96 things wrong with it that I didn't bother checking out !! and I'll be in tears tomorrow night looking at the borer holes that I thought were part of the design the day before!! (can you see where op shopping can seem like a form of madness? ) . Do you like my cute new sign?
I put it above the stove in the hope it might inspire me to actually enjoy cooking again instead of going at it like a wild woman throwing hunks of meat to the lions. I must get to bed ,just so I can lie awake worrying instead) but hey at least it's pushed the worries about the big C aside for the day!!!!
