For my birthday, Handsome took me to a store that I had been wanting to visit. He told me that I could get a certain amount and set me free. I was so excited and had trouble picking stuff out. It took a long time, and he waited patiently. Then nothing fit well. Nothing. I came home empty handed, though my heart was full . . . because he had picked up on the fact that I wanted to try out that particular brand and made a point to take me there to try it.
A few weeks later I still had no birthday present from him, because I couldn’t find anything I wanted to buy.
Then! I realized that my favorite socks were getting threadbare.
I went online and bought three new pairs! I’m delighted! I just love these socks! They are super comfy, match everything, and have STRIPES!
(and just for the record, the people who make them have NO idea who I am – this is not an endorsement – just sharing what delights me)
I haven’t stopped by in a million zillion years and today, as I am catching up on all your family fun this post jumped out at me! Why?! Because I have those EXACT same socks…both pair…and love them too…for those EXACT same reasons!!!!
