I took Kara with me to go to the local home improvement store, Lowes this time, and she had energy. A lot of energy.
As we walked around, she ran back and forth, like on an invisible leash, never getting more than about 30 feet away, but certainly with her own ideas of what she wanted to do.
So here is a sampling of some of the moments.
In the electrical aisle, she stopped by the conduit and grabbed a fitting that she began to pretend was a gun. "Pew, pew, pew" and all. Another one was a cannon.
She went for the clearance priced disco ball like a mosquito to a back porch light.
She wanted to sword fight... with long florescent tubes.
She found that some people had put PVC fittings back in the wrong boxes. She spent 10 minutes or so trying to sort them back to where the needed to go. If left unchecked, we would be there until closing while she sorted.
She opened the display doors by the door section.
She sat on a display commode to "see how good it felt".
She picked up a variety of hand tools and proceeded to tell me what she was going to do with them. No, Kara, you can't paint with a concrete chisel.
She danced in the hardware aisle, she was singing by the power tools.
And all this took place in the span of 25 minutes.
