Only problem, the one you may want to hug are among the panic-stricken!

There's 3 words that don't exist in my vocabulary, fear, panic and worry, all these do is weaken your immune system.
Are you sure they are not in your vocabulary?

or maybe just doesn't appreciate being hugged by every Tom, Dick or Harry.
Me for instance. If we're close friends ok. If not, don't.





that's my complaint I guess. People who hug everyone and anyone. Yuk.

I’ve never liked my personal space violated, no hugs or kisses to say hello or goodbye. The only exception has been my immediate family members.

I was just thinking of another person's post talking about ordering toilet paper and something else at an online site. Put items in cart and went to get their credit card but by that time the item was gone and no more to get. Isn't one's cart considered sacred ground?

Reminds me of a shopping event at a brick & mortar store during Black Friday some years back when a customer took an item out of another person's cart.

When I worked at the library, one of the staff members was collecting holds and had a patron take an item off of his holds cart. I started to label my cart as "mshultz's cart" in order to discourage that.

I don’t mind if anyone wants to do “their thing”. Just go and do it as long as it doesn’t affect “anyone else”. However if you cause others to have issues than YOU ARE THE PROBLEM so grow a brain and behave yourself.

It only takes ONE to be a problem so don't be an idiot and step up first in line.

One of our fave mayo’s - Kraft Chipotle, discontinued. Sometimes we’d put that (little bit) into our tuna fish salad. I’m sure someday down the road, we’ll find another.

Exclamation Phone Scam

Yet another phone scam. Yesterday Mrs Aks received a call on her cellphone, it was a robocall. Disgusting how they use their tricks of the trade to alter their “caller ID” identity. Then the recorded mechanical voice telling her that a $$ amount charged to her account was made. If she wanted to undo or to check the transaction she should call XXX-XXX-XXXX and speak with Jeff the account manager. There were “red flags” all over this call, so instead of calling the number they provided she called the credit card company and verified with them. Things worked out well for her but I couldn’t help but think of how so many others & seniors could easily get taken by this type of robocall. So the warning is DON’T press any keys on the dial to speak with someone just hang up!

Of interest!

If necessity is the mother of invention then I'd like to kill the jackass who coined the phrase "social distancing". The media and corporations sure seem to get off on that stupid phrase.

Hope for their sake our paths don't cross. It assuredly won't end well for them!

This is the first and last post where I use the phrase "social distancing".
