My mom said it was mean that I posted a pic of her. I thought it was totally justified. (Like she even reads my blog, mom??!!) @Tammy & Teri--I'm not psychic…I didn't know she was going to insult me when I declined the dollar donation. @Jenn--Go Jenn Go!! :) @julieanne--I was totally unprepared…I'll tried to be prepared with a clever comeback next time! @Melinda--I'm just going to stick with avoiding her line. ;) To everyone – thanks for feeling my pain and laughing with me.

@Tammy & Teri–I’m not psychic…I didn’t know she was going to insult me when I declined the dollar donation.

@Jenn–Go Jenn Go!! :)

@julieanne–I was totally unprepared…I’ll tried to be prepared with a clever comeback next time!

@Melinda–I’m just going to stick with avoiding her line. ;)

And Leigh Anne's story isn't bad, either! ;0) I laughed and laughed! I especially enjoyed the utilization of your vast graphic and computer design skills to strategically "place" this woman in a Maxine cartoon. Wouldn't it just have been less of a hassle to open your wallet and cough up the cash, friend? ;0)...Just askin'! This is hysterical! And Leigh Anne’s story isn’t bad, either! ;0)

Uncannny resemblance to Maxine for sure. And I agree ..do not grow up. I am sure my senior story is coming..its just a matter of time before I get asked ( and no I do not qualify..yet) HOWEVER..I do have one story that is mmm..shall we say is a reality check. I was at a race expo for a half marathon this past week-end with a young gal from the running club..not once, not twice, but three times the vendors there referred to her as my daughter...sigh..she is a year younger than my middle daughter ...just don't see myself as "looking" old enough to have kids that old ..oh well..on the bright side..this grandma of 5 shaved 21 minutes off her half marathon time so Grandma's who run ROCK!

Truly, you cannot allow someone who is a Maxine (or Lois) lookalike ruin your usually stellar mood. Next time a senior discount is offered say, "I'd love to accept it if I don't have to prove it." That should make them look twice. Perhaps she was a basketball referee in her earlier life??? What with eyesight issues and all... That cashier bears an uncanny resemblance to my mother-in-law!

Two weeks in a row at Goodwill, the young, teenage cashier asked me if I qualified for the senior discount!! Each time I politely replied "No," but wanted to ask them if they needed glasses and call them a jerk! I have switched Goodwills!! Yes, Mrs. Wilkes has a senior discount story too.

OMG, I can NOT believe THIS woman asked you that. I think you should report her to customer service! Don't get me wrong, I am a loyal Kroger customer but I belive that entails helping the store with issues like these. Would you like me to come up and go with you? One of the things that I like about Kroger is that they give the developmentally delayed/disabled jobs but I did report one of those employees as well one day when she came in a restroom while I was using it, signed the sheet on the back of the door that she had cleaned the restroom and departed! Sorry, I don't allow behavior like that and that was pretty blatant in my book. This particular employee tends to be a little rude as well sometimes. She can be real friends to some folks but I have experienced some rudeness as well and tolerated that. I do as you do and try to just avoid her line. Luckily she's not a cashier, simply a bagger.

This made me laugh out loud at work and I had to show three people the post. Then we had to go back to the original Kroger post. Now I have to forward them a link to your blog. You brighten my day.
