I decided to go back to Home Depot and get the chair. Should have bought it yesterday, but that opportunity passed. It was $34.00 yesterday. Remember that. Today when I decided to go, A partner offered to go with me in case I needed help getting the thing in the back of the car. I said, "OK," and off we went. Well...the things had been further reduced, and today's price was "29.00." He said, "See? Aren't you glad you didn't buy it yesterday? You saved an additional $5.00." After this remark, I was ready and willing to do murder, but I let it slide, bought the chair, and came home.
Diva, lounging

I did goof, called Patsy Patricia. Ya see I did not know what Ab Fab was. Went to see Patricia my sis in Utah. She kept asking me if I wanted to watch Ab fab. I thought she meant some movies that were absolutely fabulous, uno very good... geez. lol lol
OMG I laughed my guts out. I tell ya Diva I can be so down but I pull out the set she gave me and I feel so much better. I have that big set of them. I kid you not, over the years I have surely watched them at least a hundred times each.
Remember when she gets her "puffy" lips??? I still laugh so hard every darn time. lol NO more no more!!!
Diva you showed such restraint for a fiery Leo. I would have said no I didn't save $5.00 we used that in petrol doing two trips. Get a good book and enjoy your chair. Luv Leo xx
Yer killin me! LOL!!! It's a No Win isn't it? I guess you could find fault with the chair and ask him why he insisted that you buy it...haha! That would rightly mess with his head. *evil grin*

Well doesn't he know who he's dealing with? that $5 made me laugh. I was afraid you were going to say you went back and they were all gone. Enjoy the lounging life ---- Jill
Most saying's are nonsense like don't make a mountain out of a molehill but shoot, a lot of molehills make one huge mountain. I think it is exactly the mountain made of little things that can wear us down. I am glad you are lounging now too and appreciate your chair posts as I can relate to the little things that can drive me over the edge quicker than the big ones. I just about lost it when I moved a 2 litre pop bottle to the side of the table so we could all see each other while we talked. The A moved it back to the center because I moved it right by him. AAArrrggghhh!
Hooray for lounge chair winners. hugs from ddub

Glad you got the chair! Now go and enjoy it. If he wants to think that he was right, so be it. You know the truth! Remember their Y chromosome is twisted for a reason! Love and blessings to you and your family.

Diva, I just wanted to say, I love your posts. Mountains or molehills, makes no difference. They are all thorns. Enjoy your chair. HP knows, you deserve it.
Christy, you're a hoot. Your wry humor makes me laugh. Thank you.
