Christmas shopping!
The lists, the hunt, the weaving around peoples, the search for clerks, the canned Christmas carols, the cinnamon and pumpkin smells, the gift cards, the reds, oh, the reds!
We were in TSC, Tractor Supply Co., looking for our grown son a winter jacket.
Unwittingly, we were blessed with a 40% off sale. I scoured the racks, the high and the low. We slid hangers back on the central round rack holding black heavy and zippered coats, and maroon fully lined hooded coats. We browsed through the store's far right section of mens clothing. Finally, we chose The One.
To the counter.
Hand over purchase.
Get out payment.
Never mind the man standing behind us. He's patient. We're not dawdling. Darling Hubby John turns around then words unbidden escape his lips.
"Oh, my lands! What a big ol' dog! Are they letting Shetland ponies in the store?"
