Unnecessary Trip

Needed some 65w floods for the kitchen.  Knew I could buy half-dozen in Kokomo for half what I'd pay here in town.  Oh, and this is key.  I had checked to see if we had any here in the house.  Refer back to this statement later.

I went to Lowe's, bought a six-pack.  Of bulbs, I mean.  Came home, replaced burned out lights.

Went to store remaining two bulbs and behold, on the top shelf in the laundry room, next to the ceiling, that is, I found not one but three cartons of 65w lamps.  17 (seventeen!) bulbs.

That is life as she is lived hereabouts.

Oh no! That's funny.

Well...I guess it gave you something to do today. ;)

Lin, I thought that might give you a chuckle. And I guess it did keep me out of mischief.

Chuck, I can't tell you how many times similar scenarios have played themselves out around here.
