I let one adorable couple know they were heading the wrong way last week. They were near the end of the aisle so I told them I'd give them a "free pass" this time around, and teasingly told them not to let me catch them again or I'd call the aisle police. I met up with them again in the next aisle and the gentleman teased me right back and said he had to fetch something from the shelf he just passed, and he's going to walk backward so the aisle police don't have a case against him!

Sometimes - we find humor and compassion in the midst of difficult times in our lives.

Default Wear your mask wrong?

You would have looked silly, though, if you had put your mask--the ones with elastic ear holders--by trying to put the elastic band OVER your head and letting the other one dangle beneath your chin, as our beloved governor did a couple weeks ago.

I just looked at photos of DeSantis wearing a mask with the elastic dangling below his chin. The elastic bands are not the type that go behind the ears. The elastic is worn over the top of the head and at the lower part of the head which sometimes winds up at the neck. The elastic is much too large to be worn as ear bands.

Well, it is Florida

Sounds like she has control issues & is used to interjecting herself into others business. I would have told her “ the only person you can control is yourself, take a day off sister...”
