Spare lightbulbs

Tweet

My sister lives in a community for older people. They range in age from 60 on up. Many of her neighbors have health problems, take lots of medicine, and some are confused. Some of them get paid help, just like I am paid to help my sister. Mostly they do their own shopping. They can buy what they please. I shop with my sister because she cannot see details of things she is shopping for. My sister always has extra cigarettes and her neighbors know this. She "loans" them when people are out. People tend to go in her house if the door is open and she has them help themselves. One time Bob went with me to McPherson. He stayed at my sister's house and I took her shopping. While we were out D------ came in for cigarettes. She takes a lot of very strong medicine and can be confused from time to time. She read a list I had started for y sister. My sister wanted a different type of lightbulb. All the list said was lightbulbs. D------ read it. She called my sister to say she had lightbulbs for her. We did not understand. Sis got the kind she wanted. When we got back D----- showed up with a 12 pack of light bulbs. It turns out her helper took her to the store a while back, and light bulbs were being promoted on sale or something. Anyway, D-------- decided to get some. She bought a whole case of lightbulbs More than she will use in many years. I think 12 boxes of 12---144 light bulbs. These were not the kind my sister wanted to try, but it was easier just to put a box of 12 in her pantry. D----- was not going to take "no" for an answer. So when I needed light bulbs on Saturday my sister Yolanda had me take them home. Score!!
