So there I am, walking to the local Salvation Army (currently, I am the large circle on the right). I smelled coffee just outside the door and it just tuned me in immediately.
As I walked in, I couldn’t help notice one of the volunteers in a big purple dress walking toward me from down the hall. Without thinking about it, I said to my 4 year old, Cody, “Mmmm coffee, I wonder when it’ll be done”. My husband and 6 year old joke about my coffee being my main meal of the day. Plus Cody knows that coffee for me means an equal treat for him.
Just after I said that, the Purple Lady putting away some clothes she picked up near checkout said, “Golly, that’s quite a sniffer!” Yes, she did say “golly” and she did say “sniffer”. “I literally put that on just seconds ago all the way in the back” she points down the hallway.
Remembering my previous lack of proof, I walked down to the break room and pretended to look at crafts. Lo and behold, the coffee was only now starting to drip. Hey! Lookit! I’m special! So basically I was smelling probably coffee grounds from either the breakroom or wafting from her. Whichever one, I was outside in the fresh spring air. So, I’m thinking I’m everything like a hounddog. I ain’t never caught a rabbit, tho….okay that was way funnier in my head.
Still no real proof. I’m thinking when I get my OHIP card that I’ll see about having my “sniffer” tested. May seem silly to some, but for someone with a steady headache, it could be research.
No crazy bargains so I’m ready to leave, but I decide to check out the jewelry/watches/sunglasses. I heard you can get lucky with vintage stuff, just gotta keep your eye out. I saw a pair of thick framed tortoise shell sunglasses. They looked like they might be from the 80’s so I put them back. When I tried to look at another pair, the tortoise shell glasses fell face down and folded. It was then that I saw the signature cK logo and decided to buy them for $.25. When I got home I looked online for the same ones and I couldn’t find them anywhere. Guess it would help if I had a photo to show you. Thanks to my dear husband, my camera was left at a business meeting where some schmuck took off with 50 or so pictures of me and my kids along with the camera I took them with. Mike made a small attempt to get it back, but to no avail.
There’s a few things I wanted to show, and Mike promised me a camera in my near future so don’t lose hope on me now.
If a blog falls in the world wide web, does it make a sound?
