Garbage Day

Tuesday is garbage day around my parts of the woods.

That is just about right.

Went to the big gas station to get my big savings.

Everything went wrong.
And, I mean card wise, number wise and gas wise.

The numbers that had to put in were mind boggling.

The questions were a blur.

The gas burped at me. Literally it did.

When I was done I drove away and didn't look back.

I don't normally go there but I had a huge savings

that had to be done by the end of the month.

Thus, I waited in line with the angry gas savers.

It's a bit scary over at that gas station.

I  don't seem to be able to find a time when it's normal.

By normal, I mean not ten cars waiting for a pump.

 I usually go to the station by the donut store.

You know the one by the car wash and picture frame store.

Ok, so you have it mentally now where I usually go.

So, you understand how casual that one is in comparison

to the angry busy one I went to today.

I figure I'm lucky to have come out of there without battle scars.

Did I get my big savings .. nope.
 Somehow I pushed the wrong buttons

and ended up with the small savings instead.

Wasn't worth the time to get there or the maddening crowds.

I drove home to my woods and thought
I'm not going there again.

Well, maybe I will but not for a long while.

My garbage and recycling cans were waiting for me.

I walked them down my driveway
and thought how much I like my woods.

I really am a nature gal.

A stay away from the crazy world that doesn't need to be mine.

Oh, I go out when I need too but this saving gas
 and hoping someone doesn't kill the other
 for their spot in line ... not for me.
As far as I'm concerned,
it's a bunch of garbage.

out for her walk.
We get the mail and she learns about noises.
Also, sit and come with those noises
is not easy for a four month old.)
