Only open on Mondays


A couple weeks ago on a Tuesday I was lucky enough to partake in a conversation with Grandma Neilson and my very OCD child Carmen. It went like this:

Grandma: We need to get you tights to go with your Christmas dress
Carmen: Let's go get tights
Carmen: When can we go get tights?
Carmen: Are we going to get tights now Grandma?

Grandma: Carmen, are you listening? The tights store is closed everyday but Mondays, so we will have to wait until another Monday comes around, ok?

Oh, Grandma..

*notice she gave herself a whole week until she had to go. Sometimes this works!
