Tomorrow is Hubby's mom's birthday. I, of course, already arranged for her to receive a fantastic edible arrangement, tomorrow.
Hubby's family, however, is more of the spontaneous sort. They decided, yesterday, that we will all get together tonight for dinner. Great idea.
But it also means I need to bring a gift.
For my mother in law.
Who has everything.
Hubby suggested I print out a photo of the family, and frame it. Easy, right? I found the perfect shot of Hubby, the Sons, and Hubby's Aunt Gloria, taken while we were on vacation last month. I went to Target, with my memory stick.
Target has 2 photo printing machines. One was broken. The other one was dominated by a woman who didn't know how to use it. When she finally gave up, I realized that the non-broken machine was not compatible with my memory stick. Target is also where I saw this lovely sign. So enthusiastic, they are, about being slightly less helpful!
Wal-Mart is becoming a Super Wal-Mart. So their photo thing is down for the next week.
K-Mart doesn't have one anymore.
Best Buy and Staples don't use photo paper--just regular printer paper.
The CVS near us no longer accepts my memory stick.
But the CVS downtown, the SEVENTH STORE I VISITED, was able to process my photo.

You are a better woman that I - my head would have exploded somewhere around store 4...
Well, I'm not saying I was completely sane, by the time I got home. But, you know, Mother-in-law. It's not like I could come home empty-handed.
Next time holler girl...I could have hooked you up!
Of course had I printed them for you I would have not benifitted from the fun of reading your post and picturing your head about to explode.....
