A Man and His Bedding and .... (Funny)

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Country Families : One Thread

Okay ... we have several uses here for the pine bedding you get at WallyWorld and the DW informs me yesterday that we were out. I had some packages to mail, pick up a few groceries, and my mom wanted to go renew her boat license - that's all we had to do! Out, take care of a coupel things and get back home, right? NOT! Ladies, if you have a man that gets spring fever NEVER send him to Wal-Mart to pick up a bag of bedding that's kept in the gardening section! It just doesn't work!

So what did I come home with? A big bag of potting soil, 6 packs of little peat-pots (12 per pack), 30 (count em' - 30) packs of various seeds, and of course, the bedding! Well, after all - I DID just put together that greenhouse - gotta fill it with something, don't I?

I figure my DW will be somewhat upset that I spent nearly $20 when I was supposed to pick up a $5 bag of bedding, but she wasn't. She informed me that while I was gone she'd ordered some heirloom tomatoes (Coustralee), some peter peppers, and had someone from the forum sending her some heirloom tomatoes also (thanks!).

Naw ... we don't have spring fever! If you believe that after this post, I've got some pretty watches here to sell you ...... :8)!
