Who Think Of These Things?

Yesterday was a lovely day, it was my day off and I decided to go to my favourite shop in the World! TKMaxx, I was in no hurry and had plenty of time to look at their wonderful things. I first looked at their lovely handbags in the reduced section, but I’d recently bought a lovely bag from there, so I didn’t look for a long time, for one of the main reasons I was shopping today was for winter clothes! So, I bought various knitted tights and various socks, cause I always wear socks in the winter, or tights or both!

Next, I went over to the tops, I love baggy tops, and SO many were reduced to between £5 and £7 I chose some plan and some coloured ones, then I looked at the lovely selection of dresses, again baggy, some were medium length some shorter and others quite long! But I love the Lagenlook, where clothes are layered and with the longer item on first then the next fab item on second and finally the third item shorter than the other too, all can be seen together they are quirky! They are Me! I chose some fab designer pieces, they all went in my red basket with wheels. This was good therapy, if therapy was needed.

After the dresses I found the perfect shoes! Oh my goodness, gray in colour, my favourite colour, and slip on, but they were a size too big! I did wonder if I had socks on would they have persuaded me to keep them! I tried them on again, after I’d took them off, but they seem to come off too easily, so I took a photo of them, in case I happen to see them in another TKMaxx store but in the next size down, then they would be mine! I did try two tops on, to decide which one of the two I liked but I loved them both so I added them to my red basket on wheels!

So, with my goodies I joined the long queue, and others joined behind me. Then it was my turn to be served, it was Chloe who served me and I told her, “I will try and do the feedback so I can be in with a chance of winning the prize draw. I left the shop happy and content.

I came home and didn’t take my coat off straight away, but an hour or so later. And when I did and was about to hang it up I was horrified! For on the back was a huge, massive bird poo, and it was long! So, all that time I was in TKMaxx it was on my back and even worse when I was in the queue, and eventually at the till, all those other people still waiting their turn to be served could see the horror that was on my back for all to see!!!! When I thought about it, I was SO embarrassed. Now, if I’d seen that, I’d have gone up to them and told them, discreetly after they’d left the shop, but no one told me.

And then I remembered years ago, I went on a weekend holiday with some mates from work, and one of the girls she’d put her cardi on inside out! I said, “Karen, your cardi is on inside out,” She said, “It’s bad luck to change it back on the same day,” I replied to her, “So, you gonna look like you can’t dress yourself all day, with the tag sticking out an all?” She said, “Yes,” And that’s exactly what happened, we walked around Blackpool with her looking like she got dressed in the dark!

It reminded me that I heard someone say, it’s lucky to have bird poo on you! Well I didn’t feel lucky I felt foolish, who think of these things?
