Fairly boring commentary from an oversensitive, emotionally demanding computer nerd (with a not-so brand-new 4-year-old, and two cats)

Yard sale madness
This morning we hit what was probably about a dozen yard sales looking for kid-related items, and that's if you count a neighborhood yard sale as one. We got some good stuff, including a fairly good glider chair for $10 and a Trek bike trailer for $125. I really wanted the latter because it will give us a nice way to get out and get some exercise with our new boy. After that we went looking for furniture for his room, without finding something we were sure we wanted. We went to the giant Jordan's Furniture in Natick (nice stuff, but a lot of it pretty pricey). If you have never been to this store, however, you have to go just to see it -- the inside has this bizarre looking New Orleans street, with a maze of showrooms off of it designed to get you lost and disoriented enough to buy something out of sheer panic. I usually hate to shop but shopping for things for a new son is a lot more fun than normal. BTW, no real news on the adoption, we hope we are close to being done but we just have to wait ...Posted by markj at May 17, 2003 07:38 PM
