Rent Toys?

So I have been reading the newest trend in toys…rent them! What? For real? I don’t think I want rented toys. It’s one thing to rent a movie. You watch it and then are done. But a toy? Come on! I saw it here http://www.hlntv.com/video/2011/12/05/toy-rental and was wowed.

I keep thinking of how nasty kids are in general. Snotty, nasty kids handling toys and then parents sending them back. Whoever came up with this idea didn’t think it through. I can see the thought of “Oh my kids get tired of toys so quickly!” And if that is the case then maybe you need to look at how much you’re buying them. Overstimulation makes them uninterested in things as well as unappreciative.

Used toys just don’t sound appealing to me. Not only are kids dirty but kids are destructive. What if you get a broken toy? What happens then? Do they send you something new?

What do you think of these used toys? Would you get in on this program?

Ever Wonder?

If you’re a blogger do you ever wonder who is reading and why? Some days I get little hits at all and then other days it is like something happened and the stats go up significantly. It makes me wonder why. It makes me wonder who.

I am quite happy that there are people reading. I used to wonder if anyone would read anything I wrote. I used to wonder if I had any talent. Now I don’t wonder quite so much. I just write. I have to. It makes me feel better and does something for my soul.

I hope that the readers will continue to go up. I love having people check out my views and thoughts. Thanks to everyone who does!
