I am having a good day today, Except for I happen to have a swollen face after having a root canal on Monday, it is a little bit infected but over all a good day. I searched all day for a gift for my new little niece Gracie, i finally found something i like but it was slim pickings today for sure, for once there was actually more boy clothes than girls which rarely ever happens. I did however find clothes i wanted to buy for everyone Else's kids, if I had a million dollars.................. But it was fun to shop.
The mall today was filled with the most interesting people, Every where i turned it felt like I was watching some sort of strange kids show, the most eccentric people you could find and in Langley mall, who knew?
I sat down to have a cup of coffee at the food fair and across the way there was a man and his grand daughter , or so i thought it was his grand daughter ,we know that mistake has been made before. He looked like a younger version of Mr. Magoo and he had this huge buggy loaded with bags as if he just finished Christmas shopping and in the buggy was this beautiful little girl who clearly wanted out, Her face was covered in what looked like the smudges from a chocolate ice cream cone and you could almost see the sugar hitting her system as her arms started to flail and her eyes grew about two sizes bigger. The exhausted looking man, lifted the little girl who was now yelling at the top of her lungs out of the buggy and set her on the ground, I am not kidding you her whole face changed, suddenly she knew she was free and about 10 seconds later the man realized what he had done as she bolted across the food fair into a nearby kitchen ware store. She knew she was free and she giggled with every little step she took as the man chased after her. What reminded me of Mr.Magoo was that instead of putting her back in the buggy, he let her walk beside the buggy, and he was trying so hard to keep this little girl by his side that he kept walking into walls and she had absolutely no interest in staying near him, her attention was everywhere like someone had set her down in the middle of a giant toy box and set her free and she had every intention of enjoying that freedom. It was one of those times when you wish that you could helped but how? Little Lulu and Mr. Magoo;s day out.
I kind of felt silly for watching but I couldn't help it, the little girls face was so priceless and so dramatic,
but it made me feel better Connor has had a few days where he wasn't feeling to great this last month so i would take him to liquidation world, put him in the buggy, fill it with toys and kitchen stuff and just walk around and let him make as much noise as he wanted and play with the toys till he was ready to go home, I am sure we drove everyone nuts but I didn't care, as long as he got to have a little fun.

Isn't people watching the best thing in the world? You should just sit and write in a journal and pretty soon you'll have a novel! This you will publish and make huge $$$$$ and then you will repeat the process in a place like Spain or Hawaii and make even more $$$$. People watching and writing could be your way to being independently wealthy!
thats a really good idea!
