Friday Update

Remember when I said that I was going for a walk, and I was sure I wouldn't lose anything more?  UnfortunateIy, I was mistaken.  I had a nice 30 minute walk around several blocks.  It was cool but not unbearable, and it started snowing gently as I reached the house. 

I also had to pick up a couple of things in the grocery store, so I hopped into the car and went to No Frills.    I brought my favourite plasticized bag into the store, along with another black fabric bag tucked inside.  I generally underestimate what I'm going to buy, and end up juggling heavy items if I don't bring a grocery cart with me, so I spent the 25 cents, got the cart and put my bags in the basket. 


You know where this is going, don't you?  Somebody stole my bags out of the cart, and I never noticed until I got to the checkout and told the girl I didn't need any plastic bags because I'd brought my own... and they weren't there.  I really liked that shopping bag because it was bright red and yellow and had pictures of different kinds of candy on it.  It was very bright and colourful (I like bright and happy things). It was roomy and strong so it carried a lot of canned goods or several milk and juice containers.

I had everything I had picked out when I reached the checkout, so I know that I didn't grab the wrong grocery cart by mistake.  Somebody deliberately stole my happy bag. I got my groceries home packed into a cardboard box. 

Well, I know my favourite saying is LITFS, but I hope they put too many heavy things in that bag and it breaks.  When their eggs are on the very top.  So there.  Nobody said I had to be a grownup all the time.

Oh well, the countdown until I pick up Huck is still ticking away.  Less than half an hour to go.  I can hardly wait!
