Tony and I purchased Kayaks on Black Friday...
Actually, our friend was going to fight the crowds to buy himself two kayaks, so I asked if he would please just pick up a couple more for us...
I realize that it is a tad bit more inconvenient than asking someone to pick you up a loaf of bread, but there was some serious reasoning behind this...
This way there would be two less people filling up the store...
PLUS
We were just trying to do our part to help with crowd control...
He didn't buy that story either...
Being the good guy that he is, he agreed anyway, but also hinted that he might not be willing to get up at 5 a.m. to ensure said purchase...
In the end, he scored big time and called to let us know that we were now the proud owners of shiny new kayaks...
One yellow, one red...
Only one facet of this entire experience was going to cause me stress...
I now was faced with the deciding which color I wanted...
Tony always lets me choose first.. because he's a good guy.... he wants me to be happy...
This is a good thing...
EXCEPT -
I have a terrible time making those kinds of decisions!!
It's weird... I know!!!
I've raised five children and made literally thousands of choices that were FAR more important than this, yet each and every time I am faced with a judgment call of the color palate variety, I agonize over it...
My initial reaction was "I definitely wanted the red one...."
no question about it...
Then I started wondering if I would tire of paddling around in a kayak the color of an atomic fireball...
"I may want the yellow one..." is what I announce to my guy several hours later
I'm pretty sure that this was totally, NOT a surprise to him.
Over the past several days I have vacillated like this repeatedly.
(We have been toying with idea of buying a new car and I know that a color decision of that magnitude would probably necessitate a prescription of some sort!!)
But there is good news!!!!
I've decided that I am going to stick with my original color choice... RED!!!
Most Likely...
