Exciting Trip

Since school has started back and I don't have my helper Brianna, I have been buying groceries at night.  Normally on Thursday.  I hate going to WalMart, the money I spend there, people poking along, and men with lists when they don't know where anything is.  To make it worse, it's race weekend here in Concord.  I love the race, love watching them, would probably love to go to one, but these huge groups of men descend upon WalMart to stock up on their supplies.  This supply list includes enormous amounts of meat, eggs and bread.  There were NO hamburger or hot dog buns last night. Anyway, that's not what was exciting about my trip.  When I was walking into the store, there were cops everywhere.  Yep, several people were being arrested for shoplifting.  I have not seen a good shoplifting takedown since I stopped working at WinnDixie. We had a manager there that would chase people through the parking lot!  I think you have to let the person get out of the store with the items before anything can be done.  Anyway, it was very very exciting.  It made the extra people in there more bearable!  

The Littles and I went to eat lunch with Brianna yesterday.  She didn't know we were coming.  I think it made her day.  Today is her school picture day.  I used to hate having school pictures made, I still hate having my picture made.  

I am going to hop on my soap box for a minute.  I saw an interview with Cheryl Burke yesterday, she is from Dancing with the Stars.  I am not a big fan of the show, but have watched it a few times.  Anyway, she was on there because several bloggers and tabloids have commented about her weight and how she needs to go to Jenny Craig.  She is a flippin size 4, she could stand to gain a couple of pounds.  It just seems ridiculous to me that people are criticized for their weight. Does this determine who they are?  If someone is overweight does that mean they are a horrible person?  Do people think that because she is a "celebrity" it gives them free reign to say what they want?  What gives anyone the right to blog and demean people for their weight?  Nothing does. Brian doesn't even say anything about my weight, not even when I was at my biggest, which was over 300.  Okay, I am hopping off the soap box now.
