Okay, so maybe I am sort of quarter-life crisis-ing. After all, I have started a mental list of moderately unrealistic goals, and I've been poring over my atlas, dreaming of trips I'd like to take in the near future. Still, I don't think I'm taking it that bad...

A few days ago I ordered some craft supplies from a company in Wisconsin called Herrschners. I was so excited when I received an email saying that the order had been shipped. I had it sent to my mom's work, since it would be delivered UPS, and I might or might not be home when the package would arrive. So, when my mom came home for lunch today carrying a large cardboard shipping box, I figured it was my Herrschners order. It was! I was so excited. I took the needlepoint pillow kit out of the box. Then I took out the aida cloth. I decided to put the embroidery floss into a Ziploc bag to keep it all together for when I decide to cross stitch my African elephant from my safari book. As I was digging out handfuls of the DMC floss, my hand kept getting snagged on the various ads and other crap that comes along with a shipment and its invoice. I just haphazardly threw most of these papers out, until I encountered the AARP Financial Life Insurance Program card. So Herrschners assumes that because I order cross-stitch supplies that I am retirement age?
Now I'm really alarmed.

Hope you have recovered from the sinus congestion. I liked you monochromes. And yes i have no idea why we so many stereotypes....annoys me big time.
Yet another blow. I promise you, you're NOT old. Now if you start heading out for that geriatric dance, we'll know you're in trouble!
That is so funny!
What an insult.....lol
Cheeky Monkey's. :-)
Funny. Believe me, you're not old. But neither am I--just in denial!
I have loved everything I have ever ordered from Herrschners!
As for AARP, my hubby and I are already getting enrollment cards in the mail. Oh the shame of approaching middle age.:(
Thank you for the support, ladies!
I seriously do love Herrschners--I just thought the AARP thing was a hoot!
