on Shopping.

Sharing my Facebook post for tonight.  This was my day.

Bon Ton Aggravation Take Ten: When you wait all week to take advantage of your $50 off of $100 coupon and you carefully and painstakingly select just the right bargain for the day and after half an hour of comparing prices and making sure your final merchandise will be accepted for coupon use you stand in line for 20 minutes holding 4 heavy skillets and your $50 off coupon and the 96YO cashier is talking to the customer in front of you about all the great buys she is getting today and how she can even save more if she digs into the bottom of her purse and finds yet another coupon that is lost there and then she talks about some other things that are of little importance to her job and your hands and arms start shaking because the pans are heavy and finally another cashier opens another register and says I will take the next customer here and you go over there and ask can I use this coupon and she says sure you can and then she scans the skillet and says sorry, this is an exceptional value but it didn't say it was an exceptional value and who can read that teeny tiny print on the back anyhow and then she scans the other pan and says sorry, another exceptional value so you rip the coupon up and toss it in the trash on the way out and swear you will never shop there again.

Surgery for Gracie

Dear Diary,  It started out great.  I was going in the Buick and I was going to get to see Dr. Fox.

But things turned quickly bad when we got there.  First some strange lady stuck something up my butt. So I tried to bite her. (I missed).

Then Dr. Fox made some moves that I found inappropriate so I tried to bite him too.  It was around about that time that Mom asked for a muzzle. 

Now,here's the really bad news.  Doc says I need to have surgery next Tuesday to remove more stones in my bladder.  He gave Mom some antibiotics for me to take until then.  Mom and me are sad.  Daddy is sad too.

Why does life have to be so hard?  Gracie.

Daisy Cake

Today I have overdosed on cake which my husband so kindly had sent to me after an enlightening episode of Shark Tank that covered ~ Daisy Cakes.  *sigh*

First ice cream.  Now cake.

Have I ever told you that I love that show?

I have been shirking my responsibilities as a fellow blogger lately.  I need to get back in the game because I sure do miss everybody!

Dear Diary,

I wish I would have taken a picture.  Honestly, The Nag has lost it.  She was all whoop-de-doo excited when she got this cake in the mail today but that smile turned upside down when she discovered it was rock-solid-frozen!  I tell you..  that woman took a knife to that frozen cake and chiseled out a pile of frozen cake crumbs that would put any cake obsessed/chocoholic to shame.  BTW - I got 2 whole licks of the peanut butter frosting while she devoured that entire pile of cake crumbs.  Selfish?  You be the judge.  Gracie.
