Bravo for the cautious policeman who had to watch that you didn't pull a gun or a jigger of rum, and as for your daughter, I'd leave her at home next time you go shopping.

Thanks Tom, I see you found a bit of humor in this post.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Haha! Wonderful, Beth! This is just the sort of thing that happens to me and makes me very superstitious. Your Carol is, clearly, very smart and you must always take note. But what a kindly policeman too! You're blessed twice over. Great final punch-line too! Take care Debbie

Thank you, Debbie. I glad you saw the humor in. The policeman was nice, but it was very deflating to have him suggest maybe I should give up driving.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
How funny this is Beth, and I shouldn't laugh, but next time you are stopped, you need to say you had a sneezing fit! This is actually a defence in the UK for driving erratically because we cannot help it if we sneeze!
I recently picked my daughter up from the airport and a car cut across me and almost hit me on our journey home. Then I had an eyelash in my eye and I wobbled on the road. I joked with her that this was a the ride from hell! Thankfully there were no serious collisions! I am normally a very careful driver.
I enjoyed your story here Beth and perhaps you should put your groceries in the boot of the car (the trunk) for you Americans. Ha ha ha. I was amused here.
Love Dolly x x x

Thank you, Dolly. I appreciate you finding it humorous. It wasn't at the moment, but I found it funny later. I won't put anything on the seat that will fall again.
Comment from Wayne Fowler
I think I would have just told him about the groceries.
Carol is someone who believes if something unusual is brought up, the universe it is likely to cause it to happen. - huh? This looks like one of my sentences that I edited, but forgot to go back and reread it.
Luckly, I did get the chocolate off my face. - (Luckily)
Of course, It, also, didn't help.. ditto the above
Best wishes.

Thanks Wayne. My daughter said I should have told him about the groceries, but I was afraid he would still have considered it a driving hazard to be distracted by something falling.

You could be right. Many male cops will say anything to feel superior instead of understanding.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
You poor thing! I can just imagine how embarrassed you were, but looking back and writting it down here, you must have had a little chuckle. Little old lady unfit to be in charge of her groceries! Yes, it's all your daughter's fault! LOL. :)) Sandra xxx

Thank you, Sandra. I can see the humor in it or I wouldn't have posted it. I don't think of myself as old until something like that happens.

Nor do I! At nearly 80, I'm still thinking and acting like a 5 year old! Lol. xxx
