I'm too good!!!
I made my oldest son sooooo happy today! I am proud of me. But I guess I better suck up the love now, because Dada's probably gonna get pissed when he gets here---too bad, it's out of my money. *shrugs* What in the world are you talking about, you ask? Last night when I was tucking my biggest boy in bed he said with a sigh, "Mommy, I wish I had a bunkbed."
"Why's that sweetie?", I asked.
To which he replied, "I can hang on hang on it and it would be cool."
So like they say, when it's meant to be, the opportunity presents itself. When I walked in the door to the thrift store, to find myself some jeans, I had to go down a hall where they store "new" things, to go to the restroom and I noticed a bunkbed. It wasn't priced yet, so the clerk said she'd find out and I went on with my shopping. I was in the mist of trying on a dozen pairs of jeans to find one that would fit, when she came to tell me what's up. $30. That's it. This is a nice set maybe from the 70's--with a built in dresser and shelves and a secret hiding place (a closet), all solid wood, even came with mattresses (which I will be replacing with my newer ones I already have). I was giddy with excitement to make him so happy and he really was impressed. I love to give my kids what they want. And hey, we will need another bed when Jason leaves his crib anyways.
Yay Me!

Truly, yeah you!
BTW, good to see you back. We've been missing you.
You're back!!
Don't leave like that again, you scared me.
I kept bugging Kaci about you, I think she was getting sick of me asking so for love of my on head being attached to my body I stopped.
Glad you're back. :)
Oops, was I not supposed to come here?
Ok, that's cool, I can respect privacy.
See ya 'round Queeny!
AHHHH!! The secret's out! Oh, well *shrugs*, I guess I just can't stop ya'll from loving me. Just watch out--I have a nosy SIL who likes to tell people I have internet boyfriends if any men post on my blog. And yes--like dummy I slipped up and gave her the addy so I would have to retype what's going on with my son. But I'm not saying not to post--bring it on--she can just go on talking!
Just to be clear, you had commented on Kaci's - I just clicked on your comment and followed the link back.
I've got someone checking ID's at the door, so you shouldn't have too many problems.
