Yet last night I spent 4 hours going from store to store, shopping for Easter gifts for the Ts. When DD was little, I always got her something special for Easter. So of course, I have to do the same for the Ts, right? I know that DD is trying to declutter (she’s been working on that for a while now … and moving at the end of this month has given her additional incentive!), so I wanted to get the Ts something that they’d like, something that wouldn’t just add to the clutter that abounds when you’ve got 6 people in a house. With some input from DD, I’m going to get them pillow pets. Of course, each T has an animal that they want … and as popular and widely available as these pillow pets are, it wasn’t easy finding THE 4 pets that the Ts wanted. I found 3 of the requested pets … but not the one that T#1 wanted. After I got home, I spent a couple of hours of searching online, I found the last pillow pet. Whew!
DH seems to be doing a little better, although I’m not sure if he’s ready to admit that just yet. I wouldn’t call him a hypochondriac, but he does have a tendency to dramatize his aches and pains and illnesses (I say that with love!).
Today is going to be a rainy day … we already had a good bit of rain overnight and again this morning. Somehow it’s a little easier to go in to work when it’s rainy outside.
oh pillow pets! great idea.
ReplyDeletePillow Pets are a fantastic gift!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, I hate shopping.
Have a great day.
We are getting rain as well which is fine since we put grass down - now we don't have to water it!!! Love the pillow pets - great idea. We got the grandsons who live in CA recordable books so that Pepere and I can read to them when ever they want to hear our voices. We had to have out Easter stuff done early so we would have time to mail it out to the west coast. The east cost grand girls were a lot easier! I too am not a fan of shopping....Glad I'm not alone.
ReplyDeleteI love to shop, but internet shopping is so much easier on the feet!
ReplyDeleteBoth of my grands are so blessed with "stuff", I settled for making them a goodie bag filled with Easter candy, and added some shopping money.
I love the pillow pets, granddaughter, Madison, got the ladybug pillow for Christmas.
I did the very same for the grandkids! Great minds think alike!
ReplyDeleteThis soo sounds like something I would do. Pillow pets is a wonderful idea. I USE to like shopping around, but with these knees internet shopping has become my new best friend. Have a good day!
ReplyDeleteNana,
ReplyDeleteI looked for a pillow pet for Savy for Christmas, and I had to make do with a knockoff rendition from Wallyworld.
She's ok with it for now, I'll get her the original as a kindergarten graduation gift. Ha!
God bless your week.

Now I'm curious what pets were needed for the pillow pets and which one you had trouble finding. They are cute ideas, though, aren't they? I know the T's will enjoy them!! I'm not a shopper either, get me in and out of a store as soon as possible. It is a lesson in patience to shop with husband (grocery) when we have to slowly peruse up and down each aisle :)
ReplyDeleteglad to hear your hubby is doing a bit better!
betty
Yes, internet shopping is the BEST! The pillow pets are cute but mine are getting monogramed beach bags and towels this year. Not that they will go to the beach, but their Moms can use the bags and they will use the towels when they go swimming. That way everyone will be happy! :o)
ReplyDeleteI think the pillow pets are a great idea. I know they will love them. Have a fun Easter.
