Half the fun a...Those strawberries are scrumptious! Half the fun and horror is meeting all the characters in our journey for junque. I've developed a thick skin but I allow myself to be appalled now and then.<br /><br />Like the time I went to an estate sale where it was the second day of their sale, everything was left out in the rain the night before, nothing was priced and I was the only one there. As I asked the price for this or that, the woman looked everything up that I wanted on eBay. She would show me her phone and say - see - this is how much it sold for. I humored her for awhile but then I finally said well if you want eBay prices, then why don't you sell it on eBay because I'm not paying eBay prices. I don't have time for this, I have other sales to go to. And I got in my car and did just that. I could have been more graceful but I didn't feel like it. I felt like knocking her out for being so condescending. Holy cow Boo - my junque journey has turned me into a savage ha!Ree Ceehttp://nanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-19237638402252292842017-08-29T16:49:49.993-05:002017-08-29T16:49:49.993-05:00Sounds like your step dad is on the right track.

Still trying to get a couple of issues with his foot healed, but otherwise he's doing OK.

I know your husband had lots of issues with surgery. I hope he's doing well now.

You got some great things, even though you had to put the overpriced things back. Hope your step dad is feeling better soon. My hubby had same problem with some heart/blood pressure meds. Better now that he's off then. Also, be sure he's drinking enough water. Hubby dehydrated which also had an effect on dizziness.

Serves them right for rudely talking about you.<br /><br />SO what kind of necklaces do you make with scrabble tiles and flashcards and dominoes?Kim@Snug Harborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12066749954523201722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-729558951158574292017-08-28T21:24:33.809-05:002017-08-28T21:24:33.809-05:00They were nice to me while I was shopping.

If I had been told prices were $1 on some items that would normally be higher priced, I would assume all is low priced, but you just never know, right? But, if they were rude, even if I really wanted something, I'm putting it all back. I don't care. Everyone deserves respect. I can't tell you how many times it has happened and it seems to be happening more and more frequently. I'd blame it on the state of the world, but who knows!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07465862144480036138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15117059.post-84536711691345568712017-08-28T14:20:29.536-05:002017-08-28T14:20:29.536-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.genius786https://www.blogger.com/profile/17150410416195741689noreply@blogger.com
