Still Laughin' After All These Years - Story #1

Had a best friend way back in the 70's - she was a real nut, said lovingly. Anyway, I used to take her along on my weekly shopping trip as she didn't drive.

We didn't lock our cars in the "good old days". B. had completed her shopping, loaded groceries in the car and sat her ample bottom down.

He wasn't all that polite (per B.)- "What are you doing in my car???!!!"

Never one to back down, B gave it right back to him - "This is Jean's car!!!"

He pulled out his registration to convince her. As she told me the story, I was rolling hysterically. Being the creature of habit that I am, I always parked in the same area. That particular day, the lot was full so chose another one.

That unfortunate guy had the same model, color Toyota I had - too bad for him.

Anyway, RIP, B. You were a real character and I hope you don't mind if I post the occasional story of our friendship!

"Roundabout"

We have a fancy new traffic circle - it's actually very efficient and after suffering with construction for 4 months, was glad to see it completed.
Yesterday, a flag man was directing traffic while they painted lines. I pulled up, stopped for his sign, smiled and waved.
Eventually he allowed us to start moving again. Just as I got to exit road, remembered we had Rx's to pick up so there I was again, smiling and waving at him. The look on his face was precious.
I read his mind to pass the time, "Weird old bat, can't make up her mind."
"Can, too!!!" I yelled as I drove away.

Weird and Wired

Why am I so weird and so wired? Maybe I'll become a bag lady, pushing my cart of possessions without a care in the world.

I have a car, home, food in the fridge and clothes on my back. I have to give up this worrying. Why do I worry about every little thing?

Used to ask my man, are you worried about "---"? "No, you do it for me."

Got up a half hour ago - woke up, thought of something and had to think (worry) about it. Am I the only one who does this? It doesn't change anything to worry.

Sorry, no posts, in a funk! It won't last:)

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas - I've got the spirit! Today, after home care, I'm starting my decorating.

Our guests left early this morn so I started bringing Christmas stuff up - it's kind of "like Christmas" to see it all ornaments again:)

We're to get snow today, so our deck lights will have to go up first. We both love blue lights and he especially enjoys them.

If you think I've started too early, at least I waited til after Remembrance day!

Happy Friday, everyone.
