So this past Friday Dusty and I went to the mall because I needed a few things for the Military Ball. After we finished our shopping we started wondering around the jewelry stores, just for fun. I found one necklace at Kay’s that I really liked and the lady insisted I try it and several others on. I’m sure all of you know how pushy those jewelry sales women are, especially around Valentines Day. Next thing I know she’s throwing numbers at us and pulls out her calculator to figure a total cost. (This is after we’ve told her several times we’re just looking.) Of course I can’t just say no, or I’m not interested, so I come up with a sly way to leave. I say, “Well now that my husband knows which one I really like maybe he can come back when I’m not around and pick one out for a special occasion that’s coming up.” The ladies seem to really like this idea so they let us leave with out any nail marks in our arms.
(Now the great flaw in my plan.)
So the very next day (Saturday) I’m at the mall to get my hair done for the Ball and Dusty decides to wonder around while he waits. As he walks by Kay’s the ladies recognize him and call him over. He stops by and they start back into their sales pitch again. So what does Dusty say to get out this time…. “My wife told me not to come back.” The ladies’ jaws drop and Dusty walks directly across the hallway to Helzberg Diamond!!
I think we can officially cut up our Kay’s credit card now because I certainly won’t be able to show my face there again!
Again, Dusty and I came down stairs to find all three dogs snuggled on the couch. They were actually all lined up watching out the window for the mailman. And no, my dogs are not normally allowed on the couch, only for photographical purposes.
