Today I met hubby at the grocery store for a quick run to stock up his truck for an overnight trip. We went to our local Grocery Outlet store as they have really good prices on the cranberry juice he drinks non-stop.
I don't know if you have Grocery Outlet stores where you live, but they are kind of low rent stores. They are like the Ross or TJ Maxx of the grocery world. Leftovers and odd brands that you don't find in Safeway. But they are a good place to get canned foods and staples.
So while shopping today we heard a loud commotion going on up near the check out stands. We could hear a woman yelling and a man screaming "he's going to kill me!" over and over. Hubby went up to look, I am a chicken and stayed put in the chocolate aisle. Apparently a man had grabbed a woman's purse from her shopping cart and was trying to run out the store. She screamed out and the store clerks stopped the bad guy before he ran outside. Four men from the store were sitting on the guy until the police arrived.
What a dork!
So I am on my own again for the third night this week. I get pretty lonely and really miss my hubby. I am glad for the company of Ollie, Honey and Dodger but they really aren't very good conversationalists. Lately Ollie has been sitting on the back of the couch on the other side of the living room instead of on my lap. He is getting tired of Dodger biting and chewing on him and wants a break. I can't blame him, but he is so cuddly! I am looking forward to having hubby home for the Memorial Day weekend.
I hope you all have a great holiday weekend!
hugs,
Judy

I would be hiding with you in the chocolate aisle if there was even a hint of possible violence. I am all too familiar with the phrase "And then shots rang out."
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you're missing your hubby. Ollie, I expect you to step up and be better company!
