Shopper's Remorse

As I sit here in my bed typing out yet another late night post, I'm reminded that a few weeks ago when visiting my friend Meredith in Novi that, while shopping at the ever popular IKEA, I wanted to purchase a lap desk.

I don't know why I let myself get talked out of purchasing said lap desk (by myself, no one talked me out of it but me... I'm my own worst enemy or something like that). We passed many different styles and colors. And yet when I walked out of that store I had bed slats and a salad spinner.

So I guess I don't have "buyer's" remorse so much as I have "wish I had bought it" remorse.

The bed slats are great, my box spring had been broken for years due to my brother jumping onto my bed to wake me up shortly after moving into my house (such a brat), and the salad spinner has come in very handy! But as I prop my iPad on two pillows and position it just right so the keyboard registers, I find myself in a very non-ergonomic position trying to keep everything balanced.

I think the stupid thing was only like $10, which makes it even more ridiculous that I didn't just "splurge".

I do really enjoy the bed slats though... that was such a good purchase.

Much love
