COUNT-DOWN TO CHAOS

Or

The Goodwill Bag's newest contributor.

Not surprisingly, as we have seen in past NOWAT, HER Pre-Packing Ballet - pre-sort of: what fits-what don’t, tends to add to the Goodwill bag [THE BAG].  But this time around it is more of what is Too Big than Too Tight, [SHE's been working out… A LOT and it is showing]. 

Some favorite capris that just HAD to make the trip were rushed to the local seamstress to have taken in.

Now the interesting part.

Many of you may recall that when Chucky was going through Cancer Treatment back in ’07, he managed to drop nearly 45+ pounds in what is referred to around Casa d’ Chaos as:

“Not the Diet He Planned”

This of course caused HIM to fill THE BAG back then which of course also incurred several mall excursions to get skinnier slacks, shorts etc. Additionally certain favorite items had to be taken in by the same local seamstress. 

So what’s this leading too?  Read on.

While doing his own pre-sort, HE, who has NOT been working out, has now discovered that due to late night conferences with Mr. Dewars, and a bad habit of a Small Peanut Butter Sandwich with his Late Night recorded TV program binging, those certain slacks and shorts that usually make the trip and could not be salvaged, had to be relegated to THE BAG. Due to the Labor Day Holiday, it was too late for a panic trip to the sewing lady to let out 2 pair of those favorite slacks that were salvaged, so the'll  have to wait for the next trip.

Now while this normally wouldn’t be worth spending precious NOWAT space, but HE just had to recount that Trauma of all this had him thinking that maybe it’s time he also started an exercise program, and perhaps a personal trainer to help him along. 

This announcement had HER laughing so hard, she nearly fell off the chair and dropped her iPad.

And just as quickly as these thoughts occurred, they faded quickly into the ether as he realized… that was just plain silly.  HE’ll just head to the mall!

Of course, now she was almost rolling on the floor, really laughing, since he is always making fun of, and delights in reporting here, HER constant need for Pre-Trip visits to Aventura, if for no other reason than have her DSW coupon punched, or sumthin’ like that.

Seriously, he actually contemplated taking advantage of the Silver Sneakers program at the “Y” that comes with their Health Plan.

But as noted above, those errant thoughts were quickly quashed as he reached for the Peanut Butter, and queued up the latest recording of SUITS {9PM, Wednesday - USA Network}.

That’s all HE has for now until after the Packing Ballet which, unless something REALLY exciting happens during that routine, will be recapped as part of whatever DEPARTURE CHAOS may occur…

‘cause you just know with this pair, there is ALWAYS chaos to be had as they head off for the next adventure of the Wacky American Tourist and Ever-Lovely Dragon Lady.
