Chronicles of Schofield

Today I did my part to stimulate the economy.

To make this possible,

Papa Bear watched the Leprechaun,

( We are now going to refer to my strapping husband,

by the term my kids affectionately named him,

"Papa Bear".

He is not comfortable with the term "the hunk"

as it sounds similiar to "the hulk".

That's okay, we're flexible in blogland.)

Landon stayed home to replay

important scenes from Lord of the Rings

with his "action figures",

poor Frodo,

and Oliver insisted on accompanying Addy and I

on our city tour to find a store

that supplied silly putty.

We finally accomplished our mission by ending up at

Walmart after visiting two different Dollar Stores with no luck.

I should have known the mecca of all shopping

would have the coveted prize.

Addison was thrilled to get two pieces in glitter gold,

and a neon yellow and pink, both only 88 cents, SCORE!

Then,

we picked up chili from Wendy's,

breadsticks from Little Caesars,

and arrived home with pride in our hearts,

for we knew our monetary contributions would

indubedetly stop a recession from rolling on.

God Bless America,

and Walmart,

and Wendys,

and Little Caesars,

and Dollar Stores.
