Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Black Friday

It's Black Friday!!
I got up early, or actually I should say I woke up early.  Mostly I snoozed on and off till around 0430, which is when I normally get up.  Morning person here.  Oh, and I get to go work.  Joy of joys.
Just before I left work on Wednesday I sold around $2500 of flooring... well, I didn't actually sell it, the customer decided he was going to come in today and buy it... and take it home since he was going to have his father's truck.  I told him "it's going to be Black Friday.  The store will be busy."  He said, "I'll probably be there around noon."  That should be fine.  By then the crazy Black Friday shoppers will have cleared out; that starts happening around 1100.  To be honest, he, himself, isn't buying the flooring - his father is.  In the 15 minutes it took me to sell the flooring his father told me a lot of things:  that he has a big Ford truck, he showed me pictures.  He uses his big truck to haul around his $100,000 camper / trailer (he made certain I knew how much it cost).  His father told me he was letting his son borrow the truck this weekend because he had to go down to the beach house and clean out the refrigerator.  He told me he had 5 children.  He thought he was impressing me.  He wasn't.  I do not doubt for one second that he voted for the Idiot Jerk in the White House.
Speaking of the Idiot Jerk, I guess everybody knows now he's signed another Executive Order giving the troops down at the border the authority to 'shoot to kill.'  Those damn Mexicans.  He will do anything to keep them out of this country.  What a loser he is.
Yesterday I had Thanksgiving lunch (it's not really dinner since we ate at 1230) with my sister and her family.  I was there for... oh... maybe an hour and 45 minutes.  It was nice.  My sister and I get along.  I even got her to have her picture taken with me.

Doesn't the little bit of hair I have left look dark?

I told her we both look fat.  She told me to speak for myself.  We talked about the snow last Thursday and how bad it was.  We didn't talk about our Mom.  Nobody did.

    1. Yes she does, but don't tell her that.

      Can you imagine the uproar of someone actually shoots and kills a woman or a child?

    1. My hair looks silver to me and evidently isn't.

      Mr. Camper must think somebody's impressed.
