Can you believe Gamma and I just celebrated our 17 years together since we first moved in together? I can't, seems just like yesterday that I carried her across the threshold of the house we rented on Palace St. in Salem, and every Aug. 15 I carry her across the threshold this year was no different, well I actually had to give her a piggyback ride due to the wrist injury and I didn't want to drop my precious cargo.
I was right(as always) Gamma isn't done bringing stuff home from work yet, our most resent prize is an antique ice box and yes we will post before and after pictures, ahh but wait that's not all even today the gal at the front desk softly called"Dorinda( Gamma to all who know her as Rindy) we have something for you" alas she had tagged an old secretary type desk with a pull down door and a bunch of cubbies and shelves for her and it comes home on payday.
I got this phone call that was first interrupted by a Gamma warning that the store was under lock down because of a man walking around with a loaded rifle and the cops wanted everyone to stay inside, oh, and don't come down here because they won't let you in the area... bad word, bad word... all ended well and the SWAT team got the guy who had found a store with an open door and taken a hostage but no one was hurt...good word, good word. I am just so thankful that Gamma is safe and had the foresight to tell all to keep the doors locked and stay away from the windows and for the gal who had the sense to tell the cops she heard a shot and the direction it came from, may he rot in jail!!!!
