IKEA Rambling

It has been ages since I have posted on here. Mainly because some people think that I write my blog so they can pick it apart and make it sound like I have some kind of agenda. Well, honestly, I could care less what anyone else thinks about me and mine. I am not living for these people. I live for me and my family. They always come first and the hatred that is spread like poison is just a ridiculous waste of everyone's time.

Anyway, my post is about IKEA. We had not been there in a long time but we went today after work. Our goal was find our son a new bed. Well, who the heck can go in that store without coming out poor?! I just love it. Every time I go in there I just get ideas. Now I know the quality is not top notch but that is not why I buy stuff. Most of the purchases I make are like home decor or something... today was no exception. We ate dinner there and spent a good three hours. We cannot go there without spending some major time. I think it is because we live so far away from there that it just doesn't make sense.

We did manage to get the bed... plus a little matching bedside table. New sheets, duvet, a down comforter, lamp plus lampshade, rug, and a bunch of odds and ends and by the end of it all we were so beat down tired! We managed to squeeze everything into my car. Brian had to ride with his head cocked to the side cause something was so long it invaded his head space. LOL We just laughed about it.

It really is the little things that you treasure. My son is spending the night with a friend and is going to his baseball game tomorrow so I hope to surprise him with all his new stuff tomorrow. I am SO excited to do things like this. His birthday is in a few weeks so he is going to love to show off his new room with his friends.

Well... this was just a rambling of my thoughts at the moment... I will try to post more often... I have a lot going on in my life that I just need to blog about to kind of relieve the stress of it all.
