But the old towels didn't have any holes and they were still the color as at first use. They weren't worn out! Darn those old towels. What was I to do. I couldn't get new ones, not till the old ones wore out. Habit said you didn't get new towels till the old ones were thread bare. Isn't that the law??
Well, I took a leap this morning and bought 5 (count them) 5 new, fluffy, and soft hand towels at our favorite store, Target. Some good points: they were on sale (only one dollar off), they were extremely soft, they felt just-right. Before I could change my mind: I Bought Them. This was so fun. I spent at least twenty minutes picking the colors. It was hard to decide whether to get all the same color or all different colors. I decided on getting different colors.
They are washed, dried, and put into the towel basket waiting to be used. I'm so excited. Out goes the old-habit theory for towels. I'm all for soft. Excuse me, I think I need to go wash and DRY my hands.
And here I thought she was "working out" - physically at least. She was, but she was also thinking. She was so proud of herself. I always thought if you had Levis or socks, why use a hand towel, but I guess I'm learning otherwise. Also, I can't get my hands "too" dirty. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteGood for you Joann! I love getting new towels too - there's something about their fluffiness! So...where did the old towels go???
ReplyDeleteGood job mom!! I am really proud of you:) Can't wait to see then in a couple of weeks:)
ReplyDeleteYay for Mom and new hand towels. When David and I moved into our newest house and we had finished cleaning the old house, we were leaving the old house at 10pm and we didn't know where a single towel was. So we went to Wal-Mart (target was closed) and bought 2 new towels and a hand towel. I love them for being so soft!
ReplyDeleteWhen you told that story, I thought of your fiesta ware in the cupboard. Do they match?
