THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER

Have you ever had a day like this?

Yesterday I went to TJ Maxx looking for some workout shorts. After trying on five pair and not finding a single one to buy, I walked out to discover I'd spent half an hour in the men's dressing room.

Then I walked over to Shoes on a Shoestring where my daughter was trying on tennis shoes. The "discount" shoes were eighty dollars. When I returned home I realized I had a card on my key ring for a ten percent discount. If only I had figured it out an hour earlier...

When I told my husband the story I said, "I could kick myself in the butt."

He said, "I'd love to see that!"

So I tried to kick myself in the butt, but I couldn't even do that right. The dog was standing behind me and I accidentally kicked her in the head.

She ran away from me the rest of the day.
Thank goodness dogs are forgiving
and forgetful.
