THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME DEPOT


I out MJ'd myself today. I had a only happens to me adventure and a misremembering incident combined.

I had to run an errand before work this morning. So, I left for work extra early to allow for a fast stop a Southern States. Wrapping that up I decided I had enough time to stop a Mal Wart to look for a bird feeder or two. Mermaid is turning our yard into a smörgåsbord for all things avian. Striking out at Mal Wart I checked my watch and noted I had more than a half an hour until the office opened. So off to my second home, Home Depot.

I ran in through the garden centre (I love the alternative spelling). I made my purchases and went to check out. I handed the cashier two gift cards. She said that will be $36 additional dollars. I only had $25 on me. I had an emergency $100 stashed in my truck. I went and got my funds. I handed the $100 bill to the cashier

She said “I don't have change”

I replied “This is all I have”

“I'll have to get change” she said She phoned somewhere asking for change. She took my hundred and put in a carrier and up the pneumatic tube it went.

Ten minutes no change; fifteen minutes no change.....I looked at my watch. Then it hit me.

Today is Monday. The significance being the office opens at 8:30 not the usual 9:00. It was now 8:45. I had forgotten, I mean misremembered what day it was. That was it, I had finally forgotten to go to work

I was trapped like a rat. Late for work and being held hostage by the person on the other end of the pneumatic tube at Home Depot. For extra added fun, I left my phone in my truck and could not call work.

I was beginning to feel like Dorothy. (No I was not wearing my ruby flip flops) My fate in the hands of an unseen wizard.

Twenty Five minutes after sucking up my money. The pneumatic tube disgorged change so I could finally start my work week.

Until Next Time
I am as always convinced

There is no place like Home Depot.........

There is no place like Home Depot.........

There is no place like Home Depot.........

PS

Yesterday my and I were in Home Depot. He looks at me and says with all seriousness; “Dad you could live here and never have to leave. Everything you need is here.” I had to admit the was right.


PSS

I also misremembered a Doctor's appointment at 8:30 yesterday morning too.

I'm so impressed...I always consider myself lucky to actually make it to work on any given day with just enough time to slide into my seat and say cheerily to my Boss.."mornin'" at exactly 7:20. Even stopping at 7-11 throws me off....

Like Father like Son huh? LMAO


I make mistakes, I am out of control & at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best. ~Marilyn

After Mr Hills and I get our GarageWannaBeHouse done, he is going to make a plaque that says, "Home by Home Depot" to put above our door. We just spent over 7K on the first of several tall orders from there... and btw... my daughter works there and, no, they don't get a discount (dangit).

Your son sounds like a very intelligent young man!

~loves~

Actually I did not get in trouble. They chalked it up to me being the lovable goof that I am. It helps I am the only man in the office I guess

Actually most the Home Depots have food vendors outside of them. All of them have snacks and candy inside. Most importantly all of them have coffee in the morning

It is scary at times how close to the tree the apple actually is.
So far so good on Tuesday

When I worked at the shipyard we started at 6:45. My Boss would set the clocks ahead so either we got there early or she could write us up. Then she would set them back to the correct time after lunch to extend the work day.

I would not be able to deny him if I wanted to

Not exactly, but it did come in a orange pouch.

I am guessing bubble transportation would be faster

I wish I could take credit for the spelling. My spell check provided it for me. Glad you found your way back
