Wednesday seems the day for a larger group to eat at Maryjane's. Nothing replaces Fun, Food and friends having fantastic times. Of course I wouldn't really know but can only guess. When the "advertiser" young man came over my house to get a head count ie ask if I was going to which I said a firm no, I was surprised when he just said okay and left. After all of the advertising he did a few days before I thought for sure he'd ask or say more, but maybe even he can only take so much. That I definitely understand.
Since I knew I was going to have to make a last minute appointment for a kid who said he wanted one, I knew breakfast would be out. So I thought while having to do a few kid errands and one for me, we would get lunch out. We stopped at a great deli a few doors down from a Pharmacy on George st. and Country club road. The deli is on George st in a mini strip mall. The owners sell delicious and fresh Italian lunch meats, as well as many others, all kinds of salads and I am very sorry I didn't get their card to mention the deli. They also make omelets and I have had them too on occasion.
However today we ended not staying, not that I didn't want to. It was certainly good enough for me, but it just didn't work out. Some days will be like this. So Mary Jane ladies I know you all had a great time. School will be starting soon and I will be off to Isaac's on White street once a week, and working out four days a week. Lots of housework to be done, painting and repairs coming up.
A last thought. Christmas will be in a blink of an eye. Remember American craft workers. I have decided this year, no electronics, no batteries and buying as much American as possible. With gift cards, that's very possible. Gift cards for gas, groceries, book stores, clothes (AMERICAN MADE) look on line first. Be practical. Kids will ask for everything. What makes them entitled? Give because you want to, but don't break your budget after all you work hard for your money. If you have children who truly appreciate what you do, say, and all that good stuff, fine, but if you have kids who feel you owe them, ask why? Sure they're entitled. To education, clothes, food, medical, shelter and to be protected.
Yup, a long last thought. They are not entitled to anything else. Take a good look at who you are buying for. Why are you doing that? Then they only expect more, talk to you like crap, treat you disrespectfully and what happens when they don't get what they think you owe them-they give you attitude, not gratitude. I heard a couple of kids a few days ago talking to adults in a real nasty voice saying this, I know you got money, why can't you buy me...and it went on and on. Maybe first they should learn to speak English well, then learn to appreciate being cared for, then earn a buck or two. These kids had on one hundred dollar sneakers, and more brand name clothes made in China. Maybe they should live in China or where ever they want mom and dad to buy their brand name clothes from. Good Night all.
