Sorry, I just couldn’t resist saying it. I have no idea why…it was just one of those uncontrollable impulses. But seriously, lets talk Wiki. There is the great Wikipedia where I am learning all about what Jujitsu is. Why am I reading up on Jujitsu? Because Tate has his first class in it today. Yes, that does mean that he will be participating in 2 different forms of Martial Arts. Yes, that does mean that we will be at the studio yet one more day each week. But, it is the place that he loves to be. I think he would sleep there if I would let him. But, Jujitsu is very different from Tae Kwon Do. It is more like wrestling. In other words…this should get interesting.

Then, there is ShopWiki. Which is an online shopping site that finds every store on the internet. Traditional shopping sites will only show you stores that have paid for placement, and ShopWiki will give a shopper everything, which is why they have 30,000 stores instead of the usual 1,000 stores that other shopping sites have. In other words…you can find virtually everything there.

Like Car Speakers. Since mine are messed up I have been looking. In all honesty, mine are busted. Literally. No, I do not go down the road booming, they were like that when I bought the car. So, now I have a horrible radio and speaker system that I never even listen to because it is sad…really, really sad. It can be turned all the way up and you can barely hear it and then you hit a bump and it will blast you out of the car. So, not only do I need speakers, I need a receiver.

And now there is a law where you can’t drive and talk on your cell phone. So I am also looking for  Bluetooth Headsets for all of us since we all seem to be constantly on the phone when we are in the car. And I have even thought about a Radar Detector. But, the thing about living in a small town…you know where the cops usually sit. And you usually know the cops themselves. For instance, there is one State Trooper that likes to sit at the top of my driveway. No one can seem him from either way because of the trees. Most people can’t even find my driveway, you have to know it is there so it is a big surprise when he comes barreling out and gives you a ticket. Would a GPS help you find my house? I have no idea. I haven’t ever looked myself up on a GPS so just make sure that if you are in the vicinity to slow down and go the speed limit. Oh, and he also sits at the bridges at the county line…so be on the lookout there as well.

Well folks, there has been a tragedy! I hate to bring you this news. It is so hard to talk about it without falling to pieces. It has to do with these…

misc-003

And this….

misc-002

It is horrible. You can’t see it from this angle, but the back of the store is burnt. The inside is a mess.

I haven’t heard how the fire started yet, the cause still has to be determined. And they are not sure if they will rebuild/remodel or whatever. All that I found left when I drove through the parking lot was a box cutter. The inside is all black and gross. Not bright and full of life.

THAT my friends means that the closest store to me is not OPEN!!

That means I have to drive all the way to town if I want to buy stuff.

It is a terrible, terrible thing!

I am saddened and in despair.

If you don’t see me for a few days, I am in mourning over our loss. I know that we only had DG with us for about 2 years but the grief cuts deep.

Ok, so yes, I can go into town and visit one of the other 7 or 8 located in our county, but I liked this one goshdarnit!
