The Wrong Size Calapsable Sunglasses (with UV protection)

Let me tell you about my day.

First, I go out to find Brandon an outfit for Lee's sister's wedding next week. There are no formal outfits in Brandon's size other than Christining Outfits. Basic formal outfits start at 12months. So, I compromise and buy a 12month outfit that is clearly too big for my son. Mom, said she would be glad to hem it down to fir Brandon. Fine.

Next, I walk back to the car, I am about to put Brandon in his carseat and I notice, on the stroller, a pair of baby sunglasses I saw and put on Brandon to see how cute he would be with sunglasses. Well, I must've put them on the tray and forgot about them. I walked out of the store without paying for them. Dear God, I am now a thief! I kept them. They are cute and they are just a pair of plastic sunglasses (with UV protection). They probably were only $2 or $3 anyways. Besides, the alarm didn't go off cause there was no tag on them. Okay? Okay.

So far, so good. Wait for it.

Lastly, I come home this afternoon and find...my dining room table has calapsed. It caved in in the middle. Right now, it is being suspended by the two chairs that happened to be there, otherwise, I'm sure it would be on the floor. Yeah, not too thrilled about having to buy a dining room set right away. Can't really afford it right now. But I guess life doesn't care about, "Can't afford it right now."

Does anyone know where to buy a good, sturdy, reliable, wood dining room set that will seat 6 or more people? For cheapish? And not IKEA. I don't have a problem with IKEA, I just don't want IKEA for a my dining room.

And that, my friend, is karma in action.

Sorry I can't help you with the dining room table issue. Try the bargain finder; they can have some good deals.
