Disasters in housework

[wraithfodder]

No good deed goes unpunished.

Went back to Ikea to return a rug I bought (see previous Ikea entry). It was a nice rug, but... too white. Well, too white with a DOG. So I went back looking for a darker color. Nope, didn't see one. Figured I'd escaped with a refund. Ha! ANother lamp, base for decorate glass sphere I got last time, more towels, and geez, a stuffed weasel. They weren't there a couple weeks ago and as stuffed toys go, quite cute and well, cheap too. It sits on top of the chair now.

Anyway, spent half the day vacuuming and cleaning. Baby Godzilla is gone. I noticed him missing from the family grouping of Godzillas atop the TV... either the cat got him or the nephews/nieces the last time they were here. Darn. I'll have to see if anybody else has the tiny Godzillas.... 

Now to tackle Xmas cards. ARGH!!!!

UPDATE: Piccie below of the new weasel with the godzillas, plus that's the Ikea illuminated wreath which is really quite cool. Too bad when I put it up I knocked the clock off the wall. Blast. Back to Ikea after the holidays to get a new clock.

Ummm... you have a Godzilla collection? :-D LOL! What a hoot!

Well... um... sorta. Just three. I got the original two to put on top of the tv to stop the cat from changing the channels (the penguins didn't work, being stuffed and all, despite the wonderful Monty Python homage). Yeah, I saw a nice BIG Godzilla at one store but went, cough, gads, I could fill my gas tank in the car for that amount. I used to watch all the Godzilla flick sas a kid. Right now, though, I'm thinking I should get a few Daleks to add to the mix...

Smacks head on keyboard. FORGOT!!! But I did get some Ligonberry sauce. Maybe I'll have to go there the day after Xmas for sales. Do you know if they do after-Xmas sales??

I'm not sure about their X-Mas sale, like I told you, I'm too scare to go there! my credit-card miht never recover.. LOL!

Sooo... hahaha.. now you'll have to go back to buy the clock... I think mine is $2.99 or something.. just the plain-round one, but it works, I think they're 3-4 years old now...

Next time, don't forget the Marabou Chocolate!, you won't regret it! trust me :D

Stuffed Weasel? Seriously? How expensive was that? It may be worth a trip over my break. :)

Just $7.95

Stuck a picture of him with the godzilla family in the thread.
