I love how he walks in casually, then speeds up on his “getaway”.
A seagull in Scotland has developed the habit of stealing chips from a neighborhood shop. The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn’t looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos. Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds. The seagull’s shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen, Scotland, and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he’s become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips. Customers have begun paying for the seagull’s stolen bags of chips because they think it’s so funny.

Spent some time on the phone yesterday. First, a call to the #Honda place to get an appointment for an oil change and some recall work done on Tracey’s car.
We were supposed to get the recall work done four months ago but they didn’t have the parts in. They SAID they had them but after driving all the way out there —— they didn’t. I really hope they checked this time or I’ll waste another trip today!

My second call was to PetCo to order Jake his special dog food. He has to have dog food with no grain in it because of his allergies. He chews his feet bloody otherwise. That will be another trip to the big city because Jake is special!

And I called the #TremontClinic to make an appointment with my little girl Dr. I’m sure she wants to harass me about my cholesterol, blood sugar and weight. She’s too busy harassing other people to see me until the 25th and I will be counting the days (NOT!) until then.

We had some excitement last evening. Aaron lost the keys to the Ford #Taurus. We know they have to be somewhere between the car and the house or in the house because he drove home. Tracey, Aaron and I spent a lot of time looking for them and still haven’t found them. I can’t imagine where he could have misplaced them but he did a good job this time. I suspect we will find them some day but for now they have disappeared.
CAR KEY UPDATE: On the way out the door this morning Aaron found the car keys laying in the grass next to the driveway. Mystery solved! We are all so happy, especially Aaron, now he can drive himself instead of having to ride with Ben.

Tammy sent the picture below of her remodeled kitchen (in process). I think it looks great and I especially love that “open door policy” going on with those cabinets!
Well, this is a start on the pics. It’s hard to see the floor, but it’s a fake wood floor. It’s really linoleum and is laid in one piece. The backsplash is done except he has to come back tomorrow and grout it. I’ll take more as the work continues! You can see the red walls though.

An open door is better than a closed door! We say: “Come on in, set yourself down, baby let your hair hang down!”

I read your post above to Tracey and she said, “All this eating out and not cooking must be making Tammy giddy!”
