My Treat
I had to get milk tonight after choir. I would get it at Walmart since it's close to the church. I knew all day that if they still had what I'd seen when I was there last week, I would get it for my own treat.
I went first to the place where I'd seen it among all the display of African violets at the front of the store. It's a medium red-purple violet with a ruffled lavendar fringe. I don't need another violet. I have violets to give away! But I have mostly dark blue violets, a few white ones and even fewer pink ones. After I got home and thought about it, I decided that I could make room for this one more violet and if it was there the next time I went, I'd buy it.
I saw three of these violets left tonight. I bought one. I think it's an extended-birthday present for myself.
Next time I go, I'll look for some spring bulbs to tuck into the yard somewhere. Flowers are such delightful treats!
