Had a friend drive the wife and I to a Sam's Club yesterday. (Large warehouse type store) Wife took one of their electric ride-on carts to go to customer service and try to straighten out a billing problem.
Our friend accompanied me as I went up and down the endless aisles. She's the wife of my best friend and a retired nurse, so I had medical aid if needed.
Wife finished her business and drove her little cart over near the checkout lanes to watch for us. While waiting a store employee stopped and asked if she could help her. Wife said no, "I'm just waiting for my husband. He's out here with another woman."
Store lady laughed and thought wife was kidding. About then I appeared with "the other woman". Wife said here they are now. The store lady started laughing and said, "Wow, you weren't kidding. I thought I might have to fight her for you."
We all had a good laugh and proceeded to check out then load our boxes in the car.
To top off the excursion we treated our friend to lunch and she drove us home. Said our good byes and the downer was I couldn't pick up the boxes, had to slide them into the house. I've gotten pretty unstable now and need a cane to keep from falling. Kinda hard to pick up a box with a cane in one hand. Still we managed so it was a good day.
