How to enliven a very dull anecdote by employing creative literary techniques

Use exclamation points:

Recently, I bought a spray nozzle for the hose! But then I lost it! So I bought another one! A couple of days after that I found the first one I bought! Now I have two!

Add adjectives and adverbs:

Recently, I bought a fabulous spray nozzle for the long, slinky hose. But then I totally lost it. A couple of harrowing days later, I suddenly found the first one I bought. Now I have two fabulous spray nozzles.

Lie:

Recently, I bought a spray nozzle for the hose. But then I lost it. So I bought another one. A couple of days after that I found the first one I bought. Now I have two. Also, I won the lottery.
