Thursday's Odds 'N Ends . . .


Another hot, humid, windy day . . . Tuesday set record high temps.  Weather people seem to think it could happen again today.

first fall color

Garage sales are more plentiful this week, but the merchandise isn't . . . at least for me.  Noticed this red tree as I was leaving one of them.  One of the few trees that I'm sure is changing color due to fall and not to lack of moisture.  

Those aggravating, little blued-haired ladies were everywhere this morning.  One of them did a pretty good job delaying my departure from a garage sale.  She is the one with eyes in the back of her head.  Bet her kids got away with nothin while growin up.  Anyway every time I was about to take a step to the right to get around her, she took a step to the right.  If I went left, so did she.  She was able to block a driveway to a two car garage.  

At the local grocery store recently, I had one of those little blue-haired ladies offer to let me get in line ahead of her.  I had 3 or 4 items . . . she was about to unload a cart full of stuff.  I wisely declined her invitation.  I'm sure she had an aggravating catch to her offer.  Might be a blue-haired lady change of strategy to aggravate me.  I'm gonn be keepin a sharp eye out for them for a while. . . . 

Had to take a set of cookie cutters to the Post Office this AM.  Hopefully they will end up somewhere in Norway.  While standing in line I got lured into a tounge sticking out altercation with a probably 3 yr old little girl who was in line ahead of me with her mom.  The clerk asked me what that was all about when I got to the counter.  She couldn't see the the little girl over the counter.  Hey, I don't usually go lookin for trouble, but I'm not gonna walk away from a tongue stickin out contest with a little kid !!!!

Now I gotta decide tween two auctions to attend latter this PM or not go at all . . .
