Aid

Two kind (and good looking!) men came to my aid this afternoon when my grocery cart became seemingly inextricably entangled in a garden hose strung across the walkway (those flowers really did need the water in this heat).  I even got smiles. (And I smiled sweetly back.)

I'd like to think it was because I'm young, slender, blonde and attractive.  Sadly, I'm no longer young or slender.  I've never been blonde or attractive.

Thus, my only conclusion must be that they were helping out an old lady.  Does that make it official?  That I'm an old lady? Sigh....
