Moral Dilemma

Hmmm. Two posts in one day for me. Must have really gotten the urge. So, here's why. I was shopping at my favorite HEB this afternoon. I used the automated scanners (I just love the scanner--it reminds me of when I wanted to be the window washer at the gas station. Sure my parents would have been proud.) At any rate, got all the items checked out and back in my cart proceeding to aisle K in the parking lot. Loaded all my groceries and then picked up my purse from the top of the cart to discover my sister's birthday card. The word BLISS staring back at me. This card I had not paid for. I got in the car and sat that staring at the word BLISS pondering what to do. Did I want to walk all the way back to the store to pay $3.99 for the card. Or just consider this a gift from the universe. Like when you find a penny in the parking lot. What would you do? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Please tell me I am not the holder of a stolen birthday card? Yes, a very late response, but I just read THIS post! I know what YOU did....you got out of the card and walked all the way back and paid your $3.99 plus tax. The guilt would have taken the "bliss" moment away! BTW....what the heck? $3.99 for a card that doesn't even sing? Bliss is a nap. (yes, I am STILL on the nap thing!!)
