Off to Buy Tape

Well, the plan today was that I would run to Spring Hill early and get tape so I could protect the wood cabinets in the kitchen when I painted.

I got things done here, laundry underway, bathrooms cleaned, and took off.   I did have a couple of other quick stops but only planned to be gone an hour or two.

I did get home about 11:30 and unloaded the purchases.   BUT...where was the tape?   Not in the back seat and didn't appear to be in the trunk.

Oh well, Home Depot assured me they would see I got my tape if  I came back.   AND...I really did need a haircut.

So after lunch I got in my beautiful blue car and went back to Home Depot.   One clerk assured me we'd find it at the check out lane I had been at but no, that clerk said she had put it in a bag and remembered handing it to me.    I assured her I was unable to find it and the tape was quickly replaced.

So...home I go one more time.    I decided to check the car one more time and discovered it had been hidden in the trunk.   Not only did I feel like a thief but I had wasted a big part of the day running around buying tape and  the gal that cuts my hair was on lunch break and I didn't want to wait around for that.  

The tape is ready to be returned to Home Depot with an apology and the kitchen is painted ready for the new counter top.   First we have to get the cabinet maker here to measure for them.   Hope he is better organized than I have been today.

My mother NEVER told me there would be days like this and I probably wouldn't of believed her if she had.
