Did you know that Lowe’s is open on Easter?  I know Wal-Mart is but I did not suspect Lowe’s would be.  I had to go back into town this morning (my mother-in-law was not answering her phone when my wife wanted to talk to her, her car is in the shop so she is stuck at home, it turned out she was out walking the dog and talking to the neighbors for two hours) and to make my trip worthwhile (she called back after I was almost at her house) I went to see if I could get some hardware to fix my closet shelves.  I was going to Wal-Mart when my wife suggested that the hardware would more likely be in Lowe’s.  Boy, did I get a surprise that they were open.

We had a good time at the Easter family gathering.  I guess everyone else had a good time, I fell asleep right after eating.  To my defense, I had been up early this morning after going to be late so I had almost no sleep.  The wife and kids wake me up hours later to go home. Yes, hours.  I get home and go right to fixing the shelves which to my astonishment took exactly as long as I told my wife it would.  And here I was expecting it to actually take a whole day. I need to go back to the Scotty school of engineering.
