The color of your skin doesn't entitle you to be rude

-
To celebrate National Donut Day,  I decided to visit the neighborhood donut shop, along with a lot of others. I live in a neighborhood that is 90% white.  A black man (Please don't send me emails if you feel this term is not PC. The man was black just like I am white.) entered the shop, walked past everyone in line, walked right up to the counter, placed his order, and paid before anyone else was served.  There was a long  line and each person was standing on the little circle that was on the floor to keep us six feet apart.  Each person in the shop was white.  He was the only black. Once he left, chatter began about this behavior.  Why didn't anyone tell him to go to the end of the line?  The consensus was that no one wanted to do it because they didn't want to be called a racist.

I know what is going on in our country today is awful. No one deserves to be discriminated against because of the color of their skin, but also no should be using his/her skin color to get away with bad behavior.

Juvi didn't show up for court on a shoplifting charge

 I looked up the verdict on the one criminal mischief charge and shoplifting charge and found that he didn't show up for court.  What happens now? According to the court, a warrant could go out for his arrest, or it could be continued to another date. The other charges: third degree domestic violence and criminal mischief have been continued to August. I will keep you posted. I am really hoping for a prison sentence on the domestic violence charge. This is not his first time being charged with domestic violence.

American Century Golf Tournament

 They are super slow at updating the charities the winners were playing for.  I assume that Jason Kelce donated the $5K he won to the Eagles Foundation for Autism, but I don't know for sure because the website hasn't been updated. He won the longest shot over 3 days ago.  https://americancenturychampionship.com/events/korbel-events/ So, I looked this up on 1.10.25 and the information is still not available. I did find something interesting Jason Kelce earned the 87-spot ranking in the tournament. Hopefully you know the significance of this number.

Money saving tips for week ending 8.14.2020

One thing to keep in mind, one place is not less expensive on all items. I once had a friend share with me that they buy all of their cleaning supplies at the Dollar Store. I checked it out, but I found that the name brand products were more per ounce than Walmart. I also learned that by purchasing off brands, I was using more than I was with the name brand, which equaled more money spent. Costco does have some items cheaper than Amazon, but be careful because not all are cheaper.  For example  Mr. Clean Magic Erasers are around $10 for a package of 11 at Costco, but you can purchase 9 of them on Amazon for $6.97.  Another thing to be aware of with Costco, you can have your orders delivered to your, but the items cost more. For example, Neutrogena Body Wash is around $16 in the store and $19 if delivered to your door. I am not saying never have things delivered.  I am working on an order for delivery because I only need a couple of items and don't want to go into Cos...
