Hey y'all watching President Obama's Inauguration.
Can I hear a woo woo?
************************************************************

Chilly here in paradise, 67* and falling, 32* tonight. I'm so happy :O).
-----------------------------------------------------------

I may go second handing today. I started doing this when I was a kid. I couldn't pass up a garage sale. I actually got excited. It drove my Mother crazy. Now my husband too.
============================================================
A good friend of mine and I hit those stores like it's Tiffany's. What fun times we've had. The things we have found. Designer purses and clothes. Great furniture of all kinds. Antiques. Jeans out the wazoo. Paintings and art. All at a few pennies on the dollar.
Actually I found a tiny vase, signed by the artist, I paid $1.oo, after googling it,I found out it's worth $250.00.

I love those moments.
------------------------------------------------------------

The bonus is the people, aaah, the people.

We were at a Goodwill and chatting as we shopped.

At one point we separated to hunt and peck on our own.

As I browsed through some racks I heard a sound, which I
ignored.

Again I heard a person clicking their tongue, I slowly turn to my left.

At first I thought is was a child.

Nope it was a little Spanish man, actually he was a dwarf of the smallest variety. A grown person, in jeans, and western shirt. You see I'm 5' even. He was the size of my oldest grandson.

I am so shocked and okay, bemused, a lot. I feel laughter trying to subside in my throat. Until I look at his feet...he is wearing cowboy boots..they were huge..actually he looked like a rocking chair..toes bent up, my mirth is causing me to choke and sputter.
He has a belt buckle on bigger than his frigging' head.

I hear him say with with all the confidence his Lil ego can muster, in Spanish no less, "Hey mama what's going on"?

Really? Okay I am laughing at this point and I flee, quickly to find my friend.

She says did you find anything good ? Well....Yep...(laughter).. him.

She looks over my shoulder and scans down.

The man is winking at her.

It was one of those precious moments where you just have to be there.

My friend is 5'7" and I can't get her to break off her gaze.

I physically have to drag her away, only I am guffawing so loud & I'm crying and it wasn't easy.

We walk away..quickly. Thank God he got the hint.

One thing I'll never understand is the elderly.

As in any setting in public you expect some decorum.

Yet the elderly can't seem to muster up any manners.

I have been in grocery stores, department stores, restaurants and anywhere public.

The owners of everything wrinkled will, quiff, break wind, cut the cheese.....Fart.
They truly do not care.
It never fails.


I was in a clothing store and stuck in an isle , when a woman of extra age farted.

Now it's not a polite Lil toot, it's a full balls attack.

A gas explosion from the cabbage rolls she had at lunch. My eyes were watering, I am taking in very small breaths as I try to excuse myself.
Couldn't she find the bathroom or an empty corner.

This also has happened in 2nd hand stores, with less shyness.
The lady in front of me farted,again,again and again.

I seriously was worried because it wasn't sounding good.

I PRAYED SHE HAD ON DEPENDS OR HER SHOES WERE FULL.

Though she did look stunning in the hat she tried on.

Enjoy your life and want for nothing.

Be Thankful in all things.
