Hello Everyone,
Just got home from my local home supply store. Our bedroom faces the west and has two large windows on the west wall. By 5:00 in the afternoon it is 98° in there because I do not leave the air conditioner on when I am not in the room. So I have gone green and purchased this stuff that looks like bubble wrap covered in aluminum foil to cover windows and save on cooling. I have used it before and it works quite well. For example; make a condom for your cooler and it keeps stuff very cold for a long time. Now if I had neighbors close enough to see this tactic of mine I would probably not do it, but I have nothing but very tall corn on three sides of my house and a wooded area on the fourth. And actually as hot as I have been I don't care if someone does see it.
While at the home supply I observed some very interesting clothing, or lack there of.
I have to admit I may get labeled a style Nazi but at this point I don't care about this either. There is a place to wear a swim suit cover-up and the home supply store is not it. At least one of the two I saw was to the floor, not too objectionable. The other one though was no more than 32 inches long, a thin terry material and the elastic was being taxed around the booby area. If she had bent over I hate to think what would have been sticking out. I do have to say that both offenders were within their height to weight ratio, thank God.
Let's move on to the the young boy who was at least 25lbs. overweight. He was maybe 8 if that and struggling to keep up with his short thin muscular Napoleon complex adult. I don't know if it was his parental unit but I wanted to knock him down and sit on the skinny shit. Napoleon got my attention because he parked next to me and as I was loading the aluminum bubble wrap he and the kids were getting out of their vehicle. I heard him yell "shut up" in a rude nasty hateful voice then "hurry up and get out of the truck". So he takes off walking toward the home store at a break-neck speed-walking pace, all the while telling the boy to hurry up, pick up the pace, keep up. Guys like that should be slapped or sit on by a 60 year old fat broad like me. That young boy did not get to be his size on his own. Someone is feeding him all the wrong stuff. To humiliate a youngster like that anywhere, especially in public is inexcusable.
So that was my trip to the home store. Scantily clad women and an obnoxious Napoleon complex-ed man. Did I mention I don't handle heat well? Oh well, one day @ a time.
This is why I love summer ohhhhhhh the gurls and swim suites love them all well I am with you on this one Ruthanne must have a good BMI to pull it off. No wouldn't think of pulling it off, but I am a guy and you know what we think of most of the time anyway. Like you blog, and I hate that word Nazi it carries too much negative baggage for it to be attached to my friends. Maybe style police would be better?
ReplyDeleteAgree-no more to be said!!
ReplyDeleteGabby, I understand about the word N. and will choose my wording a bit more wisely next time. Thanks for reading.
ReplyDeleteI probably get too sensitive about the Nazi word and didn't mean it to sound so harsh. I hate that you can't write voice inflection into words or you would have heard my voice sound in a conciliatory manner. I hope I didn't make you mad cause that's not what I intended at all it's just well some of the political persuasion get to using the Nazi word just a bit too much and we are coming up on a really tough election and it's going to get nuts and well got overly sensitive. Well that's me love me, kick me or shoot me, been this way for a long time and don't think I can change. Still love gurls in swim suites :-} See ya. Oh yeah don't go changen on account of me and what I say, be yourself that's the way we like you.
