Todd took the day off of work to help me with a few housekeeping things.
First on our list: a trip to Ikea to pick up new dressers for the kids and a new TV stand for the much anticipated overpriced technical abomination we bought on Sunday.
First roadblock: arguing all the way to Ikea about Todd's driving and the all the while at Ikea because we cannot agree on anything.
Second on the list: going to Target to pick up a cheap bookcase to house our (rapidly growing) DVD (soon-to-be-Blue-Ray) and video game collection and see if we can get Lucy's new carseat there rather than ordering it.
Second roadblock: The carseat is expensive (about as much as the warranty on said abomination) and we don't need it right now so Todd does not see the need to purchase. The fact that I did a ton of research to find the perfect one at the best price will barely be acknowledged.
Third on the list: Constructing all purchases.
Third roadblock: This should be obvious, since Todd is thorough but not the best with a hammer and I can create with ease but hate following directions. We will fight lots, until everyone else stays away from us and one of us gives up and admits defeat.
Bottom line...if we make it through today without petitioning for a divorce, we will consider it a success.
