So today I went into Target to buy a giant clock but struck out. All of them were boring, fancy or too small. As I made my way to the hardware/automotive area for metal washers I somehow stumbled into the seasonal section. Spring is just around the corner and this isle was filled with toys to reflect that. Bubbles, jump ropes and sidewalk chalk! There is something about timeless children’s toys that bring back fun filled memories. Toys have evolved and changed over the years but outside simplistic toys that require no batteries are fun for everyone of all ages. Which I think is the reason why I bought a hula hoop today! They no longer are made with beads but filled with water instead or they have LED lights that go round and round. I bought the basic water one and big enough for me to “jump rope” with. I could hula hoop in my living room rotating in either direction for hours…literally. I even participated in a contest for who could go the longest. I am loving that the sun is coming out to play more often the past week and until all the snow has melted I will be smiling inside hula hooping my little girl heart out!

If you haven’t figured out already, I am not your stereotypical woman. I hate to go clothing and shoe shopping but take me gadget shopping, especially cleaning gadgets and I am in heaven. I have joked in the past that I am the one woman in the world that you could buy a vacuum cleaner as a birthday gift and could get the same reaction that most woman have from receiving jewelry! Now don’t get this idea that I live in an immaculate home or if you are envisioning Monica from friends who is a compulsive cleaner and can’t stand anything out of place, you are far from reality. But I do get excited about new cleaning products that make life easier and am always willing to try them out. This Scrubbing Bubbles product came out a few years ago but I think have tried everything on my current toilet and due to the bowl shape it never seemed to stay clean, until now. This has been a life saver and I haven’t had to scrub the toilet once since using the toilet cleaning gel! Yep – true love for cleaning product.

I honestly think this is one of my favorite places in Denver. The Denver Performing Arts Complex – the worlds largest arts complex with ten performance spaces. Thursday my family and I went to see “Two Things You Don’t Talk About at Dinner”. It’s about an annual Seder dinner filled with politics, religion and other dark real life issues. It ended up being more intense than I thought but was still funny and worth going to. My mother already has tickets for us to see “The Book of Mormon” but I am hoping to see some other shows this year. Whether it is a play, comedy, musical or the ballet I always love the theater and take any chance to go.
