Suit Up!


So I get to my destination, pull into the parking lot, gather my purse and keys ready to get out of the car and then…….put on my mask.

It makes me giggle each and every time. I feel foolish because it makes me feel like a seven year old playing cops and robbers.

I don’t think anyone else wearing a mask looks foolish. I don’t giggle at them but for some inexplicable reason I feel like an idiot.

And I have this overwhelming urge to say “Stick ‘em up!” as I walk into the store……..although, I’m pretty sure no one else would find it amusing………

Shut The F*@k Up!


Years ago Husband and I were watching the news. After a particularly disturbing story about some country running amok I turned to him and said, “Aren’t we lucky to live in a country where the military doesn’t walk around the streets toting weapons!”

Then 9/11 happened and just like that there were military personnel walking around Times Square with automatic weapons slung over their shoulders!

The next comment I made along those lines was about China having to wear masks……I think I said something like, “Aren’t you glad we live in a country where we don’t have to wear face masks to be able to breathe safely?”

And then Covid-19 hit us like a ton of bricks and BOOM, here we are wearing masks!

Last night there was a story on the news about a man who wasn’t allowed to enter his town because he didn’t have the proper ‘papers’ to show he lived there.

I turned to Husband but before I could open my mouth he said, “Don’t! You’ve already jinxed us into gun toting military patrolling our streets and having to wear face masks to go anywhere! So don’t say a word! Just don’t!”

Moral of the story……you can blame me for this mess, it’s all my fault! 

…..sorry……

Can You Say Bored to Tears?

What does a husband do during a lock-down when all the chores are done, all the trees and bushes are trimmed, the boat is shined/tuned up, the garage cleaned and reorganized.......
Apparently this:
Meet Covid Man!
The squeak puts it over the top, IMHO. (I asked how he made it do that but he won't tell me his secret.....lol. )
