If you look for rude and miserable people on the golf course, Aldi's, Winn Dixie, walking around; you will find them.
I'm still looking, maybe tomorrow. |

A small annoyance, very true until someone is bleeding and/or bruised. I think it's not only rude but dangerous with some people running stop signs, changing lanes without looking, etc. I have only been here for 3 months but I finally figured it out ~ shop EARLY in the morning to avoid problems! And honestly it's not only the elderly, a 'young person' about hit me today on 441. I looked over and the person was obviously texting because her head was looking down at her lap. All in all, I love it here!

Here's a prayer for all of us as we age:
Lord, Thou knowest better than I know myself that I am growing older and will someday be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion. Release me from craving to straighten out everybody's affairs. Make me thoughtful but not moody. Helpful, but not bossy with my vast store of wisdom--it seems a pity not to use it all, but Thou knowest, Lord, that I want a few friends at the end... Keep my mind free from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point swiftly. Seal my lips on my aches and pains. They are increasing, and love of rehearsing them is becoming sweeter as the years go by. I dare not ask for grace enough to enjoy the tales of others' pains, but help me to endure them with patience. I dare not ask for improved memory, but for a growing humility and a lessening cocksureness when my memory seems to clash with the memories of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken. Keep me reasonably sweet; I do not want to be a sour old person--some of them are so hard to live with and each one a crowning work of the devil. Give me the ability to see good things in unexpected places, and talents in unexpected people. And, give me, O Lord, the grace to tell them so. Amen.

Almost the first thing that most Police Departments do now in all accidents is try and determine if anyone was texting or talking on the phone.

I was over by Publix on Bichara yesterday during all the madness. A woman began to cross from the parking area to the sidewalk. A guy in a golf cart had stopped at the stop sign and proceeded to go. When he got about 20 yards from the woman he stopped. The woman look at him and began yelling, "You're supposed to stop at that stop sign". The guy just smiled and waved for her to continue crossing. She yells back, "Are you trying to kill me" The guy just smiles and waves again.
As she crosses in front of my cart she scowled at me and says, "Some people are just nasty, aren't they?" She was talking about the guy who did nothing wrong. He had stopped at the stop sign and then stopped well before the spot that she was crossing to let her cross. I just shook my head. But I had to agree. some people are just nasty.

Aren't people funny? I guess all one can do is shake their head and hope that they don't become that bitter.

In my three visits to TV, the last one three weeks ,I never met anyone that would fit into this group. But then I ooze sweetness, like sap from a Maple tree. To be near me just makes people glow with a goodness they never new thay had.
