When Home Goods Comes to Town

I have been waiting for years for a Home Goods to call my own.

On October 22, the wait will be over!

I will no longer have to travel 50 miles one way to get to a Home Goods.

We will finally have one locally.

I cannot tell you how happy this makes me!

In all honesty, the fact that we did not have a Home Goods store
locally has not made me a stranger to the store.

I would seek out  Home Goods on all my travels and vacations
hoping to find that one treasure (or 25) to bring home with me. 

My family knows the routine well.  It goes something like this:  

When my son has a baseball game 3 hours away...

 Me:   Do they have a Home Goods there?

When 11 family members go on a big vacation...

 Me:   Do they have a Home Goods there?

When my son wants to take a college tour... 

 Me:    Do they have a Home Goods there?

When my daughter wants to see a concert a few hours away...

 Me:  Do they have a Home Goods there?

So you get the idea.

My husband cannot fathom for the life of him,
why Home Goods has not asked me to cut the ribbon at the grand opening! 
(That one's a comedian, I tell ya)

He has lived in fear ever since the announcement was made
that we would be getting a store. 
Now neither rain, nor snow, nor heat, nor gloom of night 
shall deter me from going.
In other words, having one so close by could spell trouble.

So if all this causes us is a one way trip to the poor house,
I want to know...
Do they have a Home Goods there?

Have a super week, friends!
