I had to stop by the pharmacy last week to pick up a prescription, it wasn't ready when I arrived; I was invited to wait in a nearby chair while it was filled. That's where I was when I overheard the following conversation between an elderly woman(W) and the pharmacist(P): W: "I'm here to pick up a prescription, my Dr. called it in."
P: "Your name?"
W: "Mary Smith."*
P: "Let me look"... (pulls out a package from a bin) "Mrs. Smith, is that address 123 Main Street?"*
W: "How would I know?"
P: "Are you picking this prescription up for someone else?"
W: "No, it's for me."
P: "OK, so you're unsure of your address?"
W: "OH! Yes, that's my address. I thought you were asking me what my Dr.'s address was!"
At this point I had to get up from the waiting chair and wander off, to laugh. I couldn't help myself.
Life is Good!

One day I might end up being that lady :)
How cute.
Too funny!
I may be laughing right now, but I certainly can relate to this lady. Judy C
Kind of goes along with: Home Phone Number?
Aaaah hmmm, I will have to look it up, I never call myself.
That may have been my mother, LOL.
So funny!
I love your applique block. I have that pattern book but have yet to make the first block. Your colors are certainly lovely on the re-worked block.
