I can't win for losing
That makes no sense, does it.
When I retired I got a gift card for the restaurant at the golf course. It closed before I could use it.
That Beacon gift certificate? Closed before I used it.
I won a gift certificate to a local cafe. It is the third one I have won at our weekly Rotary meetings over the past three years. How many have I used?
None Zip. Nada. Zilch.
Two of them I misplaced, when I found them I read the expiration date had long since passed.
I won one about a month ago and told Jackie, "Let's go have breakfast." But we have not and guess what?
They announced they are closing tomorrow.
Here's my dilemma. I have a gift certificate for the restaurant and 6 cinnamon rolls from Christmas morning that have to be baked. I can't eat cinnamon rolls and then go have breakfast, or vice versa. I have lunch plans, so that is out.
So....contest time.
If anyone wants my gift certificate, a $15 value, let me know in this blog. You may have to come pick it up tomorrow, and if you are lucky I will be wearing pajamas.
I should live by my pappy's code: Use it or lose it.
Peace and Love and breakfast on me.
