Now, this is funny. A senior moment indeed. She put them on the seat, and not on the floor? What a numbskull. Yes, you are entitled to remind her about her theory of everything spoken coming around. Karen

Thank you, Karen. I don't have a lot of space in my garage to open doors and I probably told her it is easier for me get this from the front seat, but need to forget about that, because if I have to break at all things are always falling. The whole was funny after I got over being insulted by the cop.

Some people treat us as though we have vo value or common sense. You knock him down, and, I'll sit on him. That;ll teach him manners. Karen

Hi Beth,
This is a funny and ironic story. I think Carol set you up for this with both things she did. That is, talking about cops and putting your groceries on the seat instead of the floor. I can see you being embarrassed, but I think to cop would have accepted you trying to save your groceries.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a good weekend and Happy Holidays.

Thank You, Jona. I so saw this as humorous. I was hoping people would. I probably should have told the cop why I wobbled but I like to try explaining myself to cops. I appreciate your comments.

Ha Ha Ha, things like that happen to me all the time, one day there was snow predicted, I thought while I was removing my supply of food from the car, I'd better close the windows, sure enough I forgot, the blizzard blew snow into my car , it looked like a snowman was in the passenger seat. What a mess

Thank you, Yvette, I'm pleased you found it funny. It wasn't for me when it was happening but then I thought why not get a story out of it. I don't seem to hesitate about making myself look like a fool.

Geez. That is pretty humiliating. My kids are always telling me I can't drive, but I've only gotten into one accident ... not my fault. Your delivery was very humorous and enjoyable. Gretchen

I think I'm a good driver but I sure that cop didn't think so. I thought he was about to offer me an escort home. I thought it was funny after thinking about it.

Oh, that is humiliating! I am glad you were able to pull safely into a parking lot and I'm relieved you only got a warning ticket.
Keep up the fun weekly gatherings with your girls. That sounds lovely!

Thank you, Helen. I think I'm a pretty good driver as a rule if nothing is falling off the seat. I'm glad my children enjoy doing things with me. I didn't have that kind of relationship with my mom.

It is a horrible thing to be jinxed by your daughter and I am sorry that you were jinxed and that the policeman stopped you. Next time make sure she puts the food on the floor so it doesn't slip off the seat and that would be better. Patricia.

Thank you, Patricia. If it stay put, it is easier for me to pick up from seat but it is falling, I better off having in on the floor.

I have had similar embarrassing situations with the police. Your story took me back to those times. At 77 I'm sure that I will eventually have to go in and take a drivers test. Ugg!

Thank you for the nice review. I wish he just given me a verbal warning rather than a written warning that I had to sign.

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
lol very cute story and funny. not funny at the time though, I'm sure. It does almost seem like a self-fullfilling prophecy. She mentioned the cop pulling you over and then put the groceries in the front which lead him to pulling you over. lol

Lol. Yep, I guess the grocery bags will be on the floor from now on! And it was just as well you had no chocolate on your face! He might have thought you were drooling! Thanks for sharing.
