WAITING IN LINE-ICE CREAM

March 4, 2015

Wal-Mart keeps saying how wonderful they are. Right?  Well, last Saturday my granddaughter and I went there around 10:30 p.m. we got what we went there for and as usual walked around browsing.  Some time later we thought we should leave.  We walked to the front of the store and what a surprise, there were three registers open and at least 10-15 people in each line.  Of course we looked for the shortest line and of course they were all long.  I thought it was a policy the if there are several people in one line they opened another.  I guess I was wrong!  Some people in the line we chose had few items but some needed price checks, debit card didn't work or whatever could to wrong did.  Murphy's Law right?  All we needed were four items and it took a little more that 45 minutes, standing in line and getting out the door.

After the Wal-Mart ordeal I thought we would treat ourselves to some ice cream at a place called the Sweet Frog.  The have several flavors of custard, you fill up either small, med or large and add some of the toppings available, put it on a scale to be weighed, that was a real shocker, $18.92 for our choices, I tell you I really enjoyed that ice cream and savored the flavors for over an hour.  By the time we finished it was time for bed. The next morning the first thing out of her mouth was "can we go to Sweet Frog again tonight " and you know what, we did go back that night.  Good stuff.

IT'S OVER AND NEW HAS STARTED

2014 is finally over, thank God, and a new year, 2015 has begun.  I hope that your 2014 was much better than mine and that my 2015 will be much better than 2014.

Nothing has changed, still wake up every morning with my head spinning with all of the problems that await this day and every day.  The big  cause, which I am sure is a part of your day, is MONEY. Where is it going to come from.  I have been looking for a job, but who is going to hire a 74 year old man with cancer.  NONE.  Social Security doesn't go very far as some of you might know.  Well I guess all I can do like the rest of you in this situation is hope and pray.  Life must go on.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
