Lessons In Living

It's yard sale Saturday in my 'hood. So I spent the morning with Honey (Mr B's mamma) and her sister BoGee (both in the feisty +65 yrs club) driving around and looking for bargains. When lo and behold, a lady driver in a hurry comes rushing up on my bumper...and stays there. Yes-I am driving slower than normal-since kids, pets, old folks, kids on bikes, babies in strollers, pedestrians, and lolly gaggers are leisurely walking through the car lined streets. I can imagine that someone in a hurry would be having a conniption fit right about now. But this is YARD SALE SATURDAY-for cryin' out loud. Well-this gets our dander up-and Honey and BoGee are turned around in their seats staring her down and giving her the what for-but she ain't letting up-no way. She has somewhere TO BE (yeah, right). So BoGee (who is wearing an adorable blue knit skull cap to cover her bald head from the cancer treatments and wearing her diamonds and Irish cross)-gives her the bird finger!-and keeps it up while staring her down-all while wearing her Psalm 23 rosary bracelet that the nice Catholic ladies made for her to use during times of trial and tribulation.

Girls-fingers UP in salute to Aunt BoGee!!!
