We are presently in Houston, the weather is cool but sunny. We have just had a re-call on our fridge done and are now going to get an oil change and check out some new tires.
On Saturday, our salesman from the motorhome, came by for a glass of wine. As he got out of his vehicle he butted out his cigarette. When he got to the door I asked accusingly "You smoke?". Today, Monday, he has just told me that the shock of me saying that has made him quit. He hasn't had a cigarette since. That was my good deed of the day, rude or not. I sure hope he can keep it up. He's a great young man.
Love to all
