Today I Did Something for the Very First Time!

I did something today I have NEVER done for myself.  I mean, ever! It is really kind of strange, actually, when you think about me being 36 years old and never having done this...


I bought myself...

a set of sheets!

Now, do not misunderstand me. I have bought sheets for my kid's beds. I have shopped for sheets for me, but I am just so darned picky about my sheets and I never want to spend the astronomical amount that good (by my definition) sheets cost! 

I have a set that my aunt gave me over 16 years ago...can that be right?? Wow, they lasted a long time, but are, sadly, worn completely out. I also have a yellow set my Mom gave me and a white set my Step Mom gave me, so I just rotate these around.  Actually, that is not entirely true. Each set becomes my favorite at different times (I know, I'm weird). If it is the current favorite I will just wash them and put them back on the bed. Besides I only want sheets on my bed that have that very fresh, clean combination of Tide and Downy. See? I told you I was picky!

So, today I must finally put the set from my Aunt to "rest" (get it? Sheets/rest?...never mind). So while I was in Sam's Club buying diapers (ugh, will that EVER end?) I decided to check out their sheets, as I know the set my Step Mom bought me came from there.  Boy did I luck out. I found a great set, so very soft, for only $50! I was impressed. They are even a soft olive green color to match my room.

They are divine! I came straight home and put them immediately in the wash with my trusty Tide and Downy! They are now on my bed ready to lull me to a blissful, sweet dream filled sleep...

Nighty night, ya'll!
