Serendipity

My husband and I ran into Hobby Lobby a couple of weeks ago for something but I can't even remember what it was.  Whatever it was, we must have bought it because I remember being in the checkout talking with the cashier.  I asked her about a lamp that caught my eye.  I wasn't there to buy a lamp; I wasn't even in the market for a new lamp but I saw this one and we were meant to be.  So I'm asking the cashier about the lamp.  It seemed everything in that store was on sale except the lamp.  I asked, "Are your lamps on sale too by chance?" She replied, "No"...but then she added "but they will be next week. They go on sale every other week."  Well, that's a great tip.  So, next week I went back and just as she said, the lamp was on sale at 50% off!  Yep, I bought it...mostly for the shade.  I love that little shade.  That lamp came home with me and I put it in my den in progress.  Although I wasn't looking for it, it was meant to be.
