May 23 - 29

Ok, so you know how prices are going up and sometimes it catches us off guard. Well Saturday we had the annual classic car show in Loomis. Well, we need to set up a food tent outside to serve food because Taylors just can’t handle all the business, but I realized I forgot to bring an ice chest and I think I will just run down the street to the hardware store to pick one up. So, I tell the guy I need a simple ice chest, preferably a Styrofoam one I can just toss after. Well he shows me all these fancy ice chests and I said just give me the cheapest one you have. He goes to ring it up and with tax it is $268.75. I don’t think I need to say anything more. Hopefully they will let me back in the store sometime.

Cooper, by the way, has become the monster dog. I think he has been watching zombie movies and thinks that is the way to act now. He stands on his back 2 feet and lunges at me like he wants my blood. I will have to put the TV back on Nickelodeon.
