I stopped at Books-a-Million at our mall today. Couldn’t find a darn thing. They should have stopped at 500,000.
On my way home from picking Lily up this afternoon, traffic slowed as all cars funneled into a single lane. To my right was this tiny, old lady – she must have been 95 years old. (Very quicky, let me point out that I don’t think anyone under 90 is “old”. And I reserve the right to change my mind on that at anytime). She could barely see over the wheel and I would have been more than happy to let her into my lane as she was in the lane that was closed in the next quarter mile. I waved. I even tapped my horn. No response or acknowledgement of my offer. And it wasn’t because she couldn’t see me. It wasn’t because she couldn’t hear. The old lady was reading a book! While driving! For all I know, she didn’t even know her lane was ending. She might have just thought we were all driving slow so we could read too.
I love our Christmas tree this year – lots of little ornaments that Lily has made at school.
I have seven Starbucks in my area. Honestly, they are all about the same distance from my house. By 9:30 am, I had visited and made a purchase at three of them.
Bummer about the weather in the mid section of the country. Ice, freezing rain…yuck. But it’s so pretty. Until a tree crashes into your house. Thank you, but I’ll take 75 degrees. Great – snow on Christmas Eve – big deal.
