Pet Peeve


Sheesh! It must be the heat getting to me. I must still be used to the cooler weather of the gorgeous Northwest. From wearing three layers of clothing every day, I'm sitting here in shorts and tank top being crabby.

We were out shopping today and I went to the bathroom. It irritates me when I see women using more than a sheet of paper towel to wipe their hands. For goodness sakes! I try to use the air blow dryer if I can, and shake the rest off. I would never think to use more than one paper towel. Today, I saw a woman unroll almost 3 feet of paper to wipe her hands. Then she took another 2 feet. Come on! How many more trees did she want to cut down anyway? I'll bet she'd be the first one to complain that another bathroom did not have enough paper towels in their dispenser. I used to teach my first graders NOT to use more than one sheet. You wouldn't think grown ups would need lessons, too.

Forgive me.... I'll go drink some water and turn on my ceiling fan to cool off. No, I won't turn on the air conditioner, just the ceiling fan.

Oh what the heck! I'm going to turn on the A.C.!
