Too Busy to Tell Tales

Sunday was a busy day. My schedule of slothfulness was thrown off! I went to town early to pick up The Pony to help me get Easter dinner ready. I'd show you pictures, but The Pony took them, and didn't send them to me! Maybe later. At least The Pony was a big help in fetching ingredients for me, so I didn't have to stand at the kitchen counter. Well... except to wash dishes later. 

Hick went to his SUS2.5 (Storage Unit Store 2.5) as usual. His cronies make fun of him for working on holidays and rainy days and through the winter. Hick had the last laugh, doing over $300 in business on Saturday, during more flooding and rain all day. He had put on Facebook a picture of his wares, and said he was open for business, and to come see him. One guy rushed down there because he's a knife collector, and was impressed by Hick's inventory of Case pocket knives.

The Pony is trying to recover from an injury last Saturday. That might be an upcoming tale. If you are easily queasy, you might want to avoid that one!

Anyhoo... I'm tired, and have nothing more to reveal at this time.

  1. Was this the same fall from a few weeks ago? tell Pony that old people get hurt much easier, and he has to be careful :).

    1. No. As I said, it was from Saturday. One week before Easter. The Pony has a few good years left before becoming an elderly!

  2. When I worked part-time in retail, I bemoaned the fact that it was going to rain all day, and we might not have customers. An older employee said when people cannot garden or walk or whatever, they can go inside a store and shop.

    1. That's true, it gives people something to do. Especially outdoorsmen, who are a majority of Hick's customers. They might not want to hunt or fish in the rain, but they can buy new (to them) equipment to use later.

  3. Oh no! I hope The Pony is okay. Good for Hick, opening up when others didn't and making all that money.

    1. The Pony is improving a little day by day. A little! Hick was having the last laugh, telling others of his profitable day.
