A Day Late and a Lightbulb (or two) Short

The kids and I went to one of those home improvement type stores today.

I took them out against my better judgment (rowdy little buggars) and thankfully it worked out okay.

Did you know that the store like that that starts with an “L” has cool car carts with TWO steering wheels? Yeah, saved my bacon.

We went because I needed an organizer thingy for my continued closet organization project, as well as humming bird feeder stuff, door stops to prop up my laptop (I LOVE the ideas I get from “Real Simple” magazine) and light bulbs.

It’s funny how replacing one or two light bulbs REALLY can add light to your life. I hadn’t had a working bulb over MY sink in our bathroom area for a couple of weeks and it was getting quite bothersome. Now I can see my self first thing in the morning all the better. Wonderful.

And then there was the itty bitty light bulb needed for the night light in the kid’s bathroom. I don’t think that one has worked since a couple of weeks after we moved.

When I switched it on I smiled a little. Now my babies can SEE when they need to go potty at night! WHEE!

It’s the little things.

Like light bulbs and non-overheating lap tops and feeding the humming birds. Oh and organizing closets. Which is actually a really BIG thing if you ask me.

Anyway, I hope there’s a little extra light in your lives today.

I have these four, so I’m good. 🙂
