Maxx Adventure
Today, a break. Renovations are going fine, normal setbacks, above normal completion rate. Today, no workmen in the house and I run free, I am celebrating.
And how do I celebrate? Well . . . here I am at Barnes and Noble, where I can buy some wireless time to upload some photos, and oh yes, the new James Lee Burke / Dave Robicheaux novel is out so I had to buy that, too, for the next long plane ride.
Earlier, a trip to TJ Maxx. It is a TJ Maxx Home – I’ve never been in one of those before, and oh! what a thrill. I found a carry-on, just like the one I have only a little bigger and at HALF what I paid for the one I have now, and have loved, and don’t want to part with except that it is splitting in some places where I have had to pack it too full. š¦
And I also found what I was looking for. Remember I told you about the Misto, and told you where you could order one? I found it on the shelf at TJ Maxx, marked WAAAAYYYYY down. I love it. See if you can spot it.
I also thought of you when I saw this sign. Kuwait isn’t the only place with ambiguous, and very funny signage:




HAHAHAHAHA!
Ahhhhh the family store! Dear God, how much I miss TJ Maxx when I am overseas! I love that you went there (and I’m jealous!).
And what a hoot about the sign. I’ve shopped the “active tops” and “active bottoms” sections for years without once thinking: who came up with such unfortunate descriptions!
bouncing actively from top to bottom as I laugh š …!
I thought of YOU, dear one, especially in the suitcase section! And how our family is always running out to buy one more suitcase for the trip home!
LMAO @ Active Bottoms!
Whoever came up with this sign is a GENIUS š
Kinan – I am so glad to see you! Sometimes you just disappear for a while. Welcome back.
