nabbed

He was in his sixties. He came in with a purpose. I had other customers. I noticed him, greeted him then left him to his shopping. Once the others had left I glanced his way. He was hunched over near the moccasins and his posture was odd. Ask I walked over to get a better look he abruptly headed for the door. A moccasin fell out of his coat. "Whats with the moccasin?" I asked. "I think I just kicked it." he says. After a short while and me insisting that he return the other moccasin, he handed it over. I asked him to leave, he complied, I called security. There was over $580.00 more merchandise on him when they searched him. Who would have thought...

miss you all

My hard drive crashed again. This time Kevin and I had to reload everything from scratch. It took a few days. So, here I am again. Seems like forever since I tapped out my thoughts on the keyboards. I even dreamt I was blogging. Has it really become that important in my life? I guess I look forward to recording some part of my week. I used to write a journal. I have keep journals, off and on for 20 years. The blog has replaced that. I was wondering if I should archive the writing off line, as a hard copy. There is still something so substantial about a hard copy. Electronic will never replace that feeling of holding paper in my hand. It seems so real, so solid.

Well, I am back, and I missed you all.
