Mind your business!

Today was a glorious day to have off.  The sun was shining and the weather was blissfully warm.  It was the perfect day to put on the first dress of the year…or so I thought.

After spending the morning cleaning, packing and doing laundry, I decided to get dressed in a cute purple dress that hasn’t seen daylight since last summer.  I thought it looked good, until I was stopped by an elderly couple at the grocery store that bombarded me with questions about my “due date”, in their oh so sweet southern drawl.

First of all, I was buying WINE and cheese.  Does that look like a basket of goodies for an expectant mother?

Second of all, I am wearing jeans now. That dress may not EVER be worn again.

Third of all, I’m moving in a week.  No one talks to strangers in the grocery store at home.  I am looking forward to this.


Random Thought

Is it a coincidence that the German word “grosse” means “large one”?

I thought about this today while stuffing my face at lunch. Don’t know why, but it helped me to eat less.
