Or at least it looks like it in my front yard. I called someone we know and he is going to either come out here in the next day or so, or possibly send one of his crew over here. Probably tomorrow. Maggie Moo will be pleased, she's afraid of getting lost!
Bill's doing pretty good, just a little stir crazy. Not that I blame him. It's hard not to use your hand, but he's trying very hard.
Froggy, I know what you mean about women and their purses. Many times, I've seen a woman shopping and the basket with her purse in it is either behind or, our several feet away. I've seen more than one nearly be stolen, just my presence and obviously seeing the person has been enough to have the would-be thief walk away. Otter has noticed it pretty often as well. In fact, if she and I are shopping together and notice it we will make a point of walking by the basket/shopper in question and loudly (so that she hears us) commenting to each other how someone could have grabbed that purse and the owner would never have even noticed it. Otter thinks she should print up cards to leave on top of the purse with words to the effect of "I could have stolen your purse and you'd never have seen me" as a warning. I remember one time walking into a grocery store and hearing a woman yelling that her purse had been taken out of her basket. I also went to Sunday School with a woman who had her bag stolen out of her basket at a clothing store. There are enough bad people in the world, why make it easier for them? But it happens. Very frequently.
Migraine today. This is the 4th one this year. I usually average about 3 per year. This is only August, I still have several months left in 2014. I hope that it is not a trend! I did have ranch dressing on my salad yesterday, I usually don't eat ranch dressing unless I can read the label on the bottle because it usually has msg by the ton in it, but this was a prepackaged salad and I just didn't think about it. Hidden Valley brand is one of the worst, and it's also the most commonly used ranch dressing. Well, it does taste good. I think it's the most likely culprit. The headache hit about 11:00 or so, I had planned on getting lunch and bringing it back to the office so I could crochet but crochet and migraines do not mix! I was a little nauseated, which is also common with migraines. I went ahead and ate lunch, I had a tuna sandwich at Subway and it helped. I managed to stay at work but I left about 30 minutes early.
Otter needed to get something at Hobby Lobby and I had already asked her to wait for me so I could go with her, so I forced myself to go (not that it was all that hard.) I actually need to buy yarn this time, I bought 5 skeins for Uncle Crazy's lap blanket but it's going to take 6. At least. I cruised the yarn aisles while Otter was getting her stuff, the fall colors are starting to come out and they are nice! I was able to resist, but I'm not making promises for any future trips!
Froggy, you do realize that you are now an Official Conscript of the Pachinko business!
We just saw an advertisement for a can't miss movie: Into the Storm. All I got to say is, Yeah Right! As Otter says, anybody who lives in Tornado Alley should know just how B.A.D. that one is going to be. I'm pretty sure we'll pass on that one.
