I went shopping today to buy my sister an anniversary card and found Halloween candy on the shelf. School has yet to begin and the store is selling Halloween candy.
School starts August 25 here in Des Moines. I see parents buying supplies already. When I worked in retail stores, I called it shoplifting season because the amount of things stolen spiked suddenly during Back to School season. Easter, Right after school lets out, Back to school, and Christmas I considered shoplifting seasons. I am glad I work at a car rental where I don't have to watch for shoplifters anymore.
Not much happening today. I found my brother at my sister's house when I did laundry. I let my sister drive my car to the library because I blocked hers in the driveway. My sister got a new harness for one cat (the other refuses to wear them) and we walked outside. Cat harnesses are too small for her large cat, she has to buy one for a small dog. The baby got up the deck steps and grabbed the edge of the railing to stand up. I applauded her feat and she clapped too, then had to balance herself with the railing. I showed my baby niece how to walk with a shopping cart, instead of pushing it while sitting on the floor. She instantly copied me and walked around the room by herself. She even spun the cart around the go the opposite direction. I had some of my brother-in-law's ice cream cake. That is about it.
Next week I house sit for my sister's vacation to feed her cats. Then I have to decide what to get myself for my birthday coming in September. And then a wedding present for my Mom's cousin. Post later. Bye!
