Isn't the first step admitting you have a problem. Well here it is, I am obsessed with Costco. Yeah, prety much I love that store...alot. In fact I spend a ton of time on Costco.com just checking things out. And seriously, I like just talking about that store. I mean hello, it's awesome. I fully bonded with a girl in our new ward because she loves Costco too (though I doubt as much as me!) I love to read the Costco Connection (it's their totally self-promting magazine that I read cover to cover) AND I was THRILLED to learn in the Costco Connection that they would be bringing back the chocolate and almond ice cream bar, I enjoyed one today, much to my and Ryan's satisfaction. I have found that they sell EVERYTHING at Costco. In fact, I have thought A LOT about items that they DON'T sell...there aren't many, in fact I have thought of two currently...fabric by the yard (and other sewing accesories, not to be confused with sewing machines because they do sell those) and fences. I am in the market for a fence (to fence my child in and my neighbors out, don't I sound so friendly :) and so I noticed that you can't buy a fence from Costco...yet. Perhaps I should make this suggestion. As I have mentioned before, Costco does sell caskets, but I did notice when reading the frequently asked questions (I was looking for the answer to whether the purchaser must be a Costco member or if they could use the deceased membership card) that they DON'T ship caskets to Georgia. Soooo....if I am in need of a casket while living in Georgia, I also would not be able to get that at Costco.
Yeah, so I like Costco...and I don't see an end in sight, because I feel that it is a healthy addiction :)
Another shout out goes to this man.
I think of him every year right around this time. You see, one of my FAVORITE days of the year is DAYLIGHT SAVINGS. I think it is wonderful. I love when it is light outside for longer, and it feels like the beginning of spring. And EVERY year as a child I would wish that daylight saving could be longer....actually I would wish that it could be all year however, if that happened then I wouldn't get the joy each year of SPRINGING forward. And back in 2005 this dude signed a bill EXTENDING daylight saving for an additional 3 weeks on either end. So thanks President Bush. You are awesome. I will be thanking you again in October when I get to enjoy daylight savings for an additional 3 weeks!! Did you know in some states they don't participate in daylight savings? First of all, get with the program and stop trying to be different...Secondly, sucks to be you, you are missing out on one of the best things about spring!

I love Costco too.
This post is everything I love and miss about Lisa.
FAB post Lisa! You know I have to admit I'm obsessed with Costco...it's scary when you're single having such a close relationship with a "large size" store. I mean, I buy food there that I then have to eat...and they don't sell "singles" portions. HA! That would be boring! I like changing my clocks too...except now that I'm in the choir..."spring forward" is soooo not fun! Thanks for sharing!!
I'm glad someone else is obsessed with Costco, too! I could walk up and down every single aisle and not be bored. Love it!
Hi Lis, We don't have a Costco, we have a Sam's club. I know there are major differences, you should blog about it. HAHA. I would drive to it if it had sewing supplies. I have to go to JoAnns to get my stuff and I always get in a super cranky mood because I HATE JoAnns. Tradeoff of living in a small, quiet town, LOUSY shopping and selection. When I was in Houston visiting Brian and MJ I went to a fabric store right by their apartment and got SUPER mad because I couldn't take the amount of stuff I wanted on the plane. Amazingly, Salt Lake is not a very good place for sewing stuff, New York, Los Angeles, Houston, Atlanta (yes, I've looked stuff up) and Seattle are the best!! I would have to rent a Penske and drive to these places to bring stuff back - shipping is always tons - oh well, my stash of sewing stuff is already too big. That was a long comment. HAHA I love you Lisa.
We really don't Want or Need any extra daylight in AZ!
Arizona does not deal with daylight savings. I think I'm okay with that.
Also, I love Costco & I spent time with Suzy, Nate & little Parker here in AZ yesterday. That little family is too fun!
If it ever rains and we can't go to the park do I take my children to one of those bouncy houses? Or to a friends house maybe? Nope, Costco. Joe never leaves without saying hello to the dude in electronics, Ellie has never worn a pajama that was not from Costco and one of the guys at the door knows Carters name so- we might have you beat. But I've never eaten a pomegranate (nor am I sure if that is spelled correctly).
