Now that I live in a bona fide suburban neighborhood (for the first time in my life), I’m enjoying the new sense of community. So, when I saw the sign for a pre-St. Patrick’s Day event at the local community center, I was determined to be there. The Pumpkin Festival was so much fun, that I figured this one would be great too!
As often occurs in the life of a new home owner bent on decorating and renovating, though, my Saturday quickly whizzed by in a whirlwind of visits to Lowe’s, Home Depot, and furniture stores. Which left little time for Irish-themed revelry and merriment.
That being said, the day was a great success. I found a wonderful outdoor furniture set (with green cushions, in honor of St. Patrick’s Day). And the store was offering to put an extra 10% of the purchase price of a store card back on it. A great place to hang out as the weather gets warmer, and free money to boot! I must have the luck of the Irish.
