She loved baseball and pitched with a strong right arm. She could care less about the latest fashion or the latest movies featured on the big screen. She never polished her fingernails.

Oh, no - I'd back off and not get anywhere close to her vehicle. At least, she provided a warning - a very kind gesture, I think. LOL

ReplyDeleteThere are definitely some good things about being a "senior", and NOT having PMS is one of them. Come to think of it, THAT license plate could have been mine 30 years ago!
Be blessed!

If that had been an Oklahoma plate I would have bet my daughter was driving it!!! Every day on her way home she calls me to complain about all the drivers in the city!
