Crazy Idea
Okay....I need someone to talk to. I'm in Philly today and I can tell I'm out of control. Here's what's going on.....

If you read my posting from yesterday, you'll see that I was missing Phoenix and Oreganos. I really want a pizza cookie! So, you know me....I never take a trip without booking one for the next weekend. In 2005, two weeks after coming back from Australia, I was on a flight for Disney World. In 2006, the week after coming back from Canada, I was on a flight for Cleveland. Here we go again, I've been researching flights to Phoenix for this weekend. It's actually cheaper than a lot of weekends later in February or March. I'm anxious to "pull the trigger" and book the flight. I was also researching rental cars. It would cost me more money to rent a Hummer in Phoenix for the day on Saturday than it did in New Mexico. The rate was $99/day plus taxes!!! So, maybe I'll rent a mid-size if I go. My plan is to fly out in the morning and land in the early afternoon on Saturday. I'd then hop on the red-eye home Saturday night. No hotel required.

Anyway....if I go, I want to visit my most favorite scrapbook store in the whole wide world - Scrapbook Barn. I was sad to see that they don't have any classes on Saturday night. So, I started searching for other scrapbook stores in Phoenix. That's when I found it....the thing I need to talk to someone about....there's a scrapbook store for sale in Phoenix. I want to buy it. I love Phoenix. What do you think? I know, crazy huh? If I fly out on Saturday, I could check it out. It's for sale for $160,000. Is that a lot? It's an established business that was started in 2002. Therefore, they already have merchandise and a customer base. Their annual gross revenue is over $200k. The woman is selling it because she has two small kids and wants to spend more time at home with them. Help!!!
