This past weekend I was able to go to the grand store - IKEA - I had been to the Ikea store in Seattle many years ago and looked forward to going to the "new Ikea". I was blessed to go with my wonderful wife and darling daughter (Carly)... they spent the time looking for specific things they needed and would take back to Boise with Carly. - - - I looked at a way to remodel the bathroom and the master bedroom in my house and use the many styles and configurations to use the space more wisely with the space saving furniture. I also should see my unfinished office completely furnished and decorated - at a reasonable price.
Somehow the time flew by and I found myself wanting to stay longer - so I did. I haven't really left yet... My body came home with the family, but the mind and the dreaming have remained. I'm not sure I will really ever get out of that store. . . it has been nearly a week.
Now what? Do I leave and get home? Do I go back and feel the wallet lighten? Or - I'll just enjoy the time I have left here at the fine IKEA.
I Kind of Enjoyed this - Alot.

I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did!
I'll be coming down in March for a 3 day weekend and we'll have to make a trip up there again (as well as to Chadders again. I've been craving those fries and shakes!)
Love you!!
Carly
Ha! You got sucked into the IKEA vortex! It's a crazy phenomenon. You feel like you are overwhelmed but seduced at the same time. And why wouldn't you buy a lamp for $22.99? Or a mirror for ten bucks? It's funny how when I'm there I think I need to come home and redecorate in art deco, plastic furniture and paint my house in bright primary colors. Oh well, it's fun to imagine!
