I went and got a spiral note book and made a list, listing each thing he needs to do and gave it to him. I told him that it was now up to him to get it done….or not. But if he doesn't it will both cost us money and get us into trouble. So now he is working his way through that list, hollering at me from the other room asking me things like, "where is that bank form again?" and "how do we pay for this?" and "do you have a cheque to void for our pensions auto deposit?" All of which I either don't have or don't know where it is. At least he is now working on getting it all done!!!
I made a trip to the fat lady store today to fill in the gaps in my travel wardrobe. I wasn't sure when I was in North Van and I didn't want to double up on stuff. There was a lady in there who was seriously seriously morbidly obese. Now, I am not small by a huge long shot, but I was only about 1/3 the size of her. And I buy the second to last large size available in that store…4X. The last size you can buy is 5X and rarely..you will find a 6X. I couldn't help but wonder what was she actually going to be able to buy that would fit her. I think the sales lady wondered too!
Well, she found a top. It wasn't a stretchy one. It was fairly form fitting, cap sleeved with a peplum type waist. There was no way was that going to fit her. It had a decorative zipper down the back..you had to pull it over your head. The sales lady tried her best to convince her that it wasn't the top for her but she wasn't having any of that! The lady insisted and got just a wee bit snippy! Off she went into the change room.
She hadn't been in there more than about five minutes when we heard (I was kind of lurking nearby) her grunt and grunt then RIIIIP!! You could actually here the top rip!!! The sales lady looked over at me with a look of horror on her face! I just quietly raised my eyebrows and murmured 'oh oh!' Another five minutes passed before she opened the door and stepped out. The top was hanging from her finger, kind of swinging there, when she tossed it into a large tall garbage (I think it was garbage) can and announced, "Well this was a piece of shit! I guess you get what you pay for here don't you? Not liking this store so much." and proceeded through the store and out the door. I couldn't believe my eyes!!! The sales lady took it out of the can and held it up…it was torn on three major seams!! What the hell was up with that?? Weird weird weird…I think she did it on purpose.
When we got home Myles and April had installed my gorgeous new light in my purple room. So pretty and different! We put the other one downstairs in the ' reading room'. I just loaded a pic here that kind of shows it and I hit a button and it disappeared! I shall go find it! TTYL
