Paper Bags....

I just need a moment to vent:

Being the environmentaly conscious consumer I am, when I go grocery shopping, I always get paper bags instead of the flimsy plastic ones. My mom always said that you can get more stuff in a paper bag and they dont roll arund your trunk on the way home. Plus they double as my garbage bags. Then why is it that when I ask for paper bags, the bagger always sighs and looks at me funny and then proceeds to pack as much as they can into 1 paper bag?????? I am actually doing THEM a favor but not wasting 26 plastic bags and only uising 2 paper bags and that is how they repay me? Sheesh..every time I leave the grocery store I have one 35 pound paper bag as everyone else is carrying their 10 plastic bags with ease to their cars. That does not seem right does it? I have one girl put every canned food item into ONE bag! Do you think she could have spread out the weight a little bit? Nooooooooo...... so then, as expected the bag breaks as I try to lift it out of my trunk. I think they secretly have it out for us paper baggers. All right then, the bagger versus paper bag customer war is offically on!

Gabby...once again







Now, I do give Maggie a lot of attention. Mostly because she REQUIRES a lot more attention. By no fault of her own Gabby tries to make up for that fact and do things on purpose to get in trouble or do something silly so I can look at her. The above was today's "look at what I am doing" moment.
