@Reyn,
You boys look like you're having a bit of fun. Great to see. Hugs to ya both. xx
@Izzie,
Well, hugs to you, izzie. I was just looking for something to delight and entertain that I might post here. Still looking.
Mr. and Mrs. Fenton are retired, and Mrs. Fenton insists her husband go with her to Wal-Mart. He gets so bored with all the shopping trips. He prefers to get in and get out, but Mrs. Fenton loves to browse. One day Mrs. Fenton gets this letter from Wal-Mart:
Dear Mrs. Fenton,
Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and may ban both of you from our stores. We have documented all incidents on our video surveillance equipment. All complaints against Mr. Fenton are listed below.
Things Mr. Bill Fenton has done while his spouse was shopping in Wal-Mart:
1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people’s carts when they weren’t looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in House wares to go off at 5-minute intervals.
3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the ladies rest rooms.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, “Code 3 in house wares”… and watched what happened.
5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and asked to put a bag of M&M’s on layaway.
6. September 14: Moved a ‘CAUTION - WET FLOOR’ sign to a carpeted area.
7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he’d invite them in if they’ll bring pillows from the bedding department.
8. September 23: When a clerk asks if they can help him, he begins to cry and asks, “Why can’t you people just leave me alone?”
9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror, and picked his nose.
10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, asked the clerk if he knows where the antidepressants are.
11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously loudly humming the ‘Mission Impossible’ theme.
12. December 6: In the auto department, he practiced his ‘Madonna look’ using different size funnels.
13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browse through, yelled “PICK ME! PICK ME!”
14. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumes the fetal position and screams “NO! NO! It’s those voices again!”
And last, but certainly not least…
15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, “There is no toilet paper in here

Hey, hi there Izzie! Nice to see you, too! Why not join in on the fun? The more the merrier.

I laughed hard on this one, Edgar. hehe, I shop at Wal-Mart, too, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
@edgarblythe,
I likes mine soft boiled with soldiers
@edgarblythe,
<quietly asks Edgar how his brother is doing? hoping all is OK but doesn't wish to pry - gentle hug>
Waves to Reyn - hope all is good in your world
@Izzie,
My brother has not improved. I believe he is probably growing weaker.
@edgarblythe,
Ah, Edgar, so terribly sorry to hear that. I hope that he doesn't have to suffer discomfort, pain or the indignities of lengthy illness. Healing thoughts for him. Take care of you and yours too.
Have you made any wooden Crimbo decorations? Would love to see pics if you have some. WIll catch you later on - have a good day love. x
@Izzie,
I am moving slowly just now. My wife is about to have shoulder surgery and we have had other unexpected expenses. Trying to do things without going broke in the process
@edgarblythe,
Shoulder surgery!
My goodness, I'm sorry to read about that.
I hope it all goes well and her recuperation is complete.
@Reyn,
She had a nearly identical surgery on the other shoulder, just over a year ago. She recovered very well that time.
@edgarblythe,
That's certainly reassuring. However, I always worry when Vivienne needs something done. It's in my nature.
This business with her abdominal hernia surgery is ongoing. The last work went well, but the fluid build-up in going to with her for some time. Regular drainings still need to be done. She is quite stoic about it, even though I know it gets her down.
@Reyn,
We opted for a different doctor, in a different hospital this time. The first operation, they gave her a nerve blocker shot, or something. But they missed the spot and had to do it a second time. My wife said she heard a nurse say that she (my wife) stopped breathing during the procedure. Things like that scared her.
They billed us for both nerve blockers. My wife said they are not getting paid for the nerve blocker to the wrong area. So, they put a bill collector on us. She answered the phone to them one time. She told them she would not pay. Since then, the collector calls here about ten times a day. We just turn off the ringer.
It's gonna be a long weekend for moi. Hope I can stand having my four hour days cut to zero after today.
