Today at work this man came in. He's a regular customer. He was chatting about how he'd went to get his chew, and the lady asked to see his ID. Once she read his ID she looked at him and told him You look pretty good for a man of almost 67 years! He told her thank you and said that he asked for 2 cans instead... Later on that night he and his wife were at dinner. He was telling her about the compliment he received, earlier in the day at the smoke shop. Oh I know which store you went to! His wife told him You do? he said Which one? The one that old BLIND lady works in! his wife replied. I am pretty sure I could write a whole book, about nothing but funny stories I have heard from customers!
Then when work is about over, I realize my son has walked away from home. Destiny was watching him and Hannah, when Bailey got upset and said he was going to walk to daddy's work. Destiny blew him off and I guess figured he'd walked to the gas station with his 5$ prize left from the tooth fairy last night.
At 2pm my mom calls, asking if I had Bailey now. He had been up at HER WORK getting a soda!? You have to cross like the busiest intersection IN our town to get to my moms work, which he is not allowed to do... As if you didn't know this. Hell I dont even like to cross a street like that. O M G so of course all my hair is instantly grey. I have no brown left in my head.
We found the boy, obviously or I would not be patiently sitting at my computer blogging. I would be frantic. So anyway turns out he went back to my moms work, and she called me. Tim went and got him. When I got home he was hiding under his desk. I talked to him and told him to get some lunch. We talked about what he could have done, when he was upset, and what he had BETTER do the next time, instead of walking all over God know's where alone and nobody know it.
Later he asked me to get him something, and I told him to do it himself, he said oh well I kind of thought I would not be allowed to leave my room for at least the night. Out of all my kids, Bailey is always the one who admits he was wrong, says he is sorry and really, honestly means it.
So of course in the heat of it all, Destiny made time to ask all of facebook if they have seen her brother, who is missing...(and facebook is a good outlet for missing kids so it was not a dumb idea) I figure why not share with my blog, and facebook since they already know through Destiny. Promise even called, asking if Bailey was home, and seeming worried. Go figure. They do love each other, and even worry about one another. Huh. Who knew?!
Oh and have I mentioned today is not even nearly over? Yeah its just now 4pm. I do believe I will partake in some pucker and diet sprite here shortly... They have driven me to drinking!
