Muscles

(This picture has nothing to do with this post...I just took it of Libby yesterday and thought it was cute.) :-)

Around 10:45am Sunday morning I was online and decided to check the Michael's online ad. Since I got my Cricut at Christmas I'm absolutely addicted to Michael's. I've never been so obessesed with cardstock and embellishments. :-) Well, I'm scrolling through the ad and I see that they have Cricut cartridges that are normally $49.99 and they are on sale this week for $14.99. Holy...freaking...cow!!!! I started screaming, "Libby get your shoes, Libby get your shoes!!!" She comes running out of her room a little confused and I tell her to get her shoes quickly because we have to go. She says, "But mommy, I'm wearing sweat pants!" and I respond with, "I don't care! Get your shoes! Cartridges are $14.99!" Somehow that makes sense to her and she grabs her shoes and runs to the garage. :-) We get to Michael's and (as expected) they were all sold out...except for one cartridge that I wanted so I got the card to take up front so that they could get the cartridge for me. After that was taken care of we browsed the store and loaded up our basket. We checked out and the guy told me that they were actually sold out of the cartridge that I wanted but he could give me a raincheck. Heck yeah! So, I'm filling out the form for the rain check while he rings up our stuff and bags it. I was still finishing the form and putting my card back in my wallet when he had the bag ready to hand to me but since I was busy he looked at Libby and said, "Here you go muscles." Libby gave him a strange look and took the bag from him. We walked out of the store and took a few steps and Libby asked, "Why did he call me muscles?" I told her he was trying to be cute. She asked, "As in funny?" and I told her yes. We took about five more steps and she murmured, "Well that wasn't funny." It was quite cute. :-)
P.S. Happy birthday to my mommy...I hope you are having a wonderful birthday in heaven...I miss you!
