Hello World Part 1 (100 Day Photo Challenge!)

Day 79: The Last Thing You Bought

I bought a sleeping bag.  Yes, a green sleeping bag.  This sleeping bag will come in handy in many ways in the future.  What if my blankets catch on fire?  I'll need something warm to sleep in.  What if I go camping?  I'll need it!  What if I have a friend stay the night and she needs something to keep her warm?! 

I bought this sleeping bag for my last reason.  I had a friend (nineler) spend the night. We had just walked around the city for hours and needless to say I was kind of tired.  I could hardly hold myself up when we were in the store.  I was leaning on the pole that was next to the face wash.  I was leaning on the basket.  I was tired.  But we had to go to the store because nineler needed a place something to sleep on and she also needed her face...stuff.  (she left her purse on the train)

I feel bad.  I offered my bed a gazillion times to nineler but she took the floor.  My floor is tile.  All she had to sleep on was a foam pad, a blanket, and this sleeping bag.  She insisted the floor wasn't bad.  I kept thinking that it is really bad and how can she sleep there?

The sleeping bag is the last thing I bought :)

Today I let the boys I nanny come into my room after I was off work and we worked on a craft project we started a couple of days ago.  It was like everything was new to them and they wanted to touch everything.  It was kind of funny. 

First, they wanted to know if my ipod had games.  Next, they found my Kindle which I then had to pry from one of the boys hands.  After that they found my renuzit (a little thing that makes my room smell good, it has this gel stuff that smells good).  Well, these boys informed me they had never seen one before and they just stood next to it sniffing it and sniffing it.  So I came up with this brilliant idea to put it on the floor in the middle of our art supplies so they could smell it as we worked. 

This soon proved to be a catastrophe.  The oldest boy picked it up and started rubbing his hands all over the gel part...he didn't understand that was where the smell was coming from, he wanted to find what was making the smell.  Then the youngest boy reached over to do the same and jabbed his finger into it creating a huge hole! (I'm laughing as I type this...it was just too funny).

I quickly took it away and explained how the device worked.  Both boys just sat there with their hands held out as they realized the wet stuff on their hands was what was causing the smell.  I grabbed a tissue and wiped the chunk of gel off the youngest boys fingers and then the liquid-y stuff off the oldest boys hands.  It was too funny.

After that they were on to the next thing.  It was a miracle we even finished our art project.
