SENIOR MOMENTS
Several days ago as I left a meeting at a hotel, I desperately gave myself a personal TSA pat down.
I was looking for my keys. They were not in
my pockets. Not in my purse.
A quick search in the meeting room revealed
nothing.
Suddenly I realized I must have left them
in the car.
Frantically, I headed for the parking lot.
My husband has scolded me many times for
leaving the keys in the ignition.
My theory is the ignition is the best place
not to lose them.
His theory is that the car will be stolen.
As I burst through the door, I came to a
terrifying conclusion.
His theory was right.
The parking lot was empty.
I immediately called the police. I gave
them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that
it had been stolen.
Then I made the most difficult call of all,
"Honey," I stammered; ( I always call him "honey" in times like these.) "I
left my keys in the car and it's been stolen."
There was a period of silence. I thought
the call had been dropped, but then I heard his voice.
"Are you kidding me", he barked, "I dropped
you off"!!!
Now it was my time to be silent.
Embarrassed, I said, "Well, come and get me."
He retorted, "I will, as soon as I convince
this cop I didn't steal your car."
Yep, it's the golden years................
Oh my! I coyld see me doing this :(
