Was just at Lowe’s where they had no cashiers working. A long line of people with two self service machines. Watched one man hassle with scanning large pieces of lumber because there were no hand held devices either. When it came my turn, they wanted me to scan a special bar for the paint. Since I had no idea what this special bar was at the time, I declined to scan it. Later when putting the paint in the car, realized the special bar must have been the strip on the top of the can.
Does Lowe’s really want me to turn a can of paint upside down at their scanning station? Imagine the mess created if the top came off the can of paint. There is not much time before the paint covers a large surface area. Bob suggested that the best way might be grabbing a dustpan or a hose to cordon off that paint. And I don’t even want to think about cleaning it out of the cracks. At that point, I would be like “There is a spill here, can you get someone over to clean it up?” Wonder if I would get a new set of clothes out of them to replace the paint covered ones?
There is an art festival in downtown Vista today. Someone had a lot of fun putting up signs like “tearable puns”, “trolls looking for a home” and “Found Cat”. The found cat poster showed a black and white skunk with text detailing how to pick up Stinky. I’ll see it later today when I meet friends for dinner and an art class.
Bob thought he would conserve water by sharing a shower last night. Boy was he surprised to learn I was taking a literal cold shower.
Went out for breakfast this morning with Bob, Mary, and Elly. Curbside was busy; lots of dogs outside. So Elly got excited. She was a real stinker; kept wanting to bark. Like having ill-mannered little kids, Bob and I spent breakfast time taking turns with eating and walking the dog.
Charlie is really hard on the hair bands. He’s managed to steal most of a new package from me. It’s hot, too hot for down hair. So this morning, I was reduced to using a hair stick instead of a hairband.
