Hey! There's toliet paper on your shoe

So I went to see my Auntie Elaine at the care facility yesterday. She's looking much better but was so tired she could hardly keep her eye's open to talk to me. She rang for the nurse shortly after I got there to have someone check her blood sugars. I could be exaggerating, but I swear it took almost 10 minutes for someone to come to her room. Then it wasn't the nurse but a woman who asked if it was something she could help with. Elaine told her she needed the nurse so they could check her blood. 10 minutes after that, the Aide came in. Again we stated we needed the nurse so she could check her blood. It was almost another 10 minutes before the nurse finally showed up. I didn't say anything, because I was thinking that at least they showed up, but I was a bit upset that we had to tell two different people before we got the person we needed.

I left not too long after that and bumped into Bill as he was coming to see his mom. We chatted for a few minutes and I told him I was meeting Beth to go shopping because we had discount coupons at Fashion Bug. He asked me to take his wife to dinner as she needed to get away. I said, not a problem!

We met at Fashion Bug, but I couldn't find anything I liked that would fit me. Why oh why do they make big girl clothes so, grandma-y? I'm 37 not 67. I want to look younger than I am. I want to be comfortable in my clothes. I swear I need to learn how to sew and design my own clothes. I found a great pair of pants that would fit me length wise, but darn it, Elephant butt strikes again. The legs were so baggy that I could have fit a penguin in each one.

I finally gave up on me, and started looking for some shirts for Lorie. Her birthday is coming up, and I don't think the housing is going to get her bushes pulled in time to get her flowers to plant. She's hard to shop for, as I have learned the hard way that even if she says something is cute, she doesn't mean she wants to wear it. So I sent her some pictures and questions and bought her a few shirts. Of course some where on clearance and so they didn't go towards my coupon/discount. I ended up spending $60.00 anyway. hum.... I need to rethink my shopping processes.

After Fashion Bug we went to Souper Salad because Beth is trying to be eating better. We sat and talked for some time, and soon I needed to use the restroom. I came out and walked back to our table, where I told Beth I was going to get some desert. As I walked towards the buffet, Beth in a not so low voice says " You have toilet paper on your shoe!" I look down and sure enough I had a friend attached to the bottom of my shoe. I am sure I turned pink, I bent down to grab it, looked back up at Beth and started to laugh. She was laughing so hard I thought she would fall out of the booth. I ran back to the bathroom to toss the paper in the garbage and re-wash my hands. Then I came out and with much dignity I walked to the buffet to get my desert.

When I got back to the table, Beth apologized for shouting it out. We laughed about it some more. Thankfully there were not many people left in the restaurant when she kindly told me about my tag along. It could have been a more embarrassing moment.

It's good to know that I have such comforting friends. I mean who else would have friends that will shout out about the toilet paper on your shoe?
