    Gotcha!

    My mind has often been wandering into the "get another senior" mode. I've expressed this to DH several times. He wants me to slow down and think it through. What's there to think about?

    So, needed to go to the commissary and exchange on Sunday only to discover there was a local pet expo. Told DH I was going there first. He gave me that "look" and warned me about all the rescues that would certainly abound. It was so much fun, even seeing Archie's trainer. She put on a display of nose work and freestyle doggy dancing.

    A little background: Have been pondering what to get DH for his birthday, he has all he needs. He has all the wood working tools to the point I can't even buy blades for the saws, they are so specialized.

    Walked into the exchange and they were having a tech sale. Ah Ha, a new bigger TV! He's joked about this saying he wanted a 2000 incher or some such crap. But, the prices were right so I got him a 48" with a Bose sound bar.

    On getting home, he walked out of the house to help carry in the groceries. I stopped him mid way, putting out my hands, and told him I could not help myself after going to the expo. "You've got to see what I got!" The look on his face - priceless. He was sure it was of the four pawed, furry variety. "Help me, help me get it out!" His jaw dropped when he saw the TV.

    Gotcha!

    I know from things you've said here that he sure deserves one (along with the rubber mallet). Doggy/pet/animal shows are sure to look great on it too.
