Farmer H is gone to the auction. He is on a mission to pick up some items for The Pony's new house. Oh, he'll be getting things for himself as well. But he specifically took orders from The Pony.
"Pony. Look in there on the trunk in our bedroom. See that clear pack of sheets? They sell them at the auction. They're new. That's a queen size. They're usually around $20. I looked them up, and online the same pack is $59. I can get you some for your bed if you want."
"Do they have other colors? Besides the brown?"
"Yeah. They usually have blue and red and green and maybe some other colors."
"Okay. Get me two. I want blue. And maybe green if they don't have two different colors of blue."
"They come with a top sheet, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases."
"Yeah. Get me two sets."
The Pony does not shy away from a bargain.
Woo-hoo! New sheets. I love new sheets. Green and blue are nice colours too. But we'll need pictures.
ReplyDeleteRiver,
ReplyDeleteThey were in A-Cad's rear when we took a trip to the casino on Wednesday. So deep in A-Cad's rear that The Pony couldn't see them. They were covered by other treasures that Farmer H bought for himself. Farmer H said he was bringing them in the house, but he went through the door ahead of me, and he was NOT carrying any sheets.
Farmer H says he got blue and gray. The Pony was happy with that. When they actually carry the sheets into the Mansion, I will try to get a picture.
Better deep in A-Cad's rear than Farmer H's rear...
ReplyDeleteHick could become a personal shopper for many people, it could be a career!
ReplyDeleteSioux,
ReplyDeleteFarmer H needs to get his rear in gear and unload A-Cad's rear. I am still waiting for him to bring in those sheets for a photo opportunity.

Kathy,
He already looks for things he knows people want. Like frames for my best old ex-teaching buddy Mabel. She even pays him a finder's fee over what the mirrors and pictures cost.
