Josh: Debt and Deals

I went to Target today and look what I found:

New and Improved race-car rug:

 $7.48 on clearance:

What a deal: 

I am also excited because a debt will finally be paid to Josh:

Flashback:

We moved to Dayton, OH from sunny L.A.:

Into a house that was half the size of our military housing:

Yikes! This meant we had to downsize everything:
So what do you do when you to get rid of half of everything:

You have a yard sale:

Josh's race-car rug was 'accidentally' put in the yard sale:

 1.5 years later...another move:

From Ohio to Virginia into a townhouse with a playroom:

Sadly, race-car rug has not been replaced:

I promised Josh a new one, but I can't even find one...

Okay, truth... I really didn't look for one: 

But still:

I have not heard the end of it:

Josh has mourned the loss of that race-car rug for about 12 years now:

Josh:

It's time to let go of the old race-car rug:

  Embrace the bigger and better race-car rug:

That I got...on clearance...

Here's my promise to Alivia:

I will never sell this rug:

You may think that this rug is yours, but it's not. It's Josh's:

I will let you play with it anytime you want:

In fact, I will make Josh play race-car rug with you  

anytime you want:

Go for it, Josh! Live your childhood:

A new promise to Josh:

I will hold onto this new and improved race-car rug:

Until I have grandkids (see previous post):

That's all the thanks I need...for now:
