Come and meet my new friend!

I wrote this past summer about a friend of mine, Jack. I thought we had something special. I trusted this friend with my secrets. I was honest and bared all. And I was lied to! It taken 6 months to forgive the pain, and learn to live without this friend's advice like I had frequently had done...sometimes even daily. Talk about a heavy feeling! But I have let go, and with a new year, I have been desiring to turn over a new look.

So I got brave. I haven't been this close since. I did like the relationship and though I knew there were challenges, I was willing to do what I could do, to make me happy and I really have missed my friend's advice. So off I went to the city to meet my new friend. There she was! Ready for me...or so I thought!

Okay! I am talking about my last weigh scale. It lied to me often! So today, I decided to buy a new digital scale.



I went to the store this morning and purchased different brand. It didn't work. So I went back to exchange it. I ask if I could open up the next one seeing as though I don't even live near this store. They say absolutely. I open one. Nope. Another. Nope. and another...still nope! So I and another employee opened 6 weigh scales...none of which worked. So this brillant and sweet staff member, suggested I should think of buying another brand...and at this point, I am game! So she opens a box and taps it and it works...within .1 of a pound! I grab the next one on the shelf and take it to the front counter for the exchange. I bring it home...it doesn't work! The battery is dead! She may not work but has a great sense of style ...and I think we'll be best of friends!
