So we went to the little local cafe this morning. This is the place where everyone in town goes to get all the gossip, etc. So I overhear these two women talking about a "lady with that yorkie". So I perked up my ears and listened a little more closely and realized they were talking about ME! They were talking about the way I always dress Susanah, and take her everywhere with me, etc.
Well then they were leaving and they had to pass right by our table and when they did one of them said to the other one, "Yeah, it must be nice to have enough money to dress up a damn dog when there are people who can't even afford to buy clothes for their kids!"
It isn't MY fault if they can't afford to buy clothes for their kids. They were both pulling out their cigarettes as they were walking out. Maybe they should stop smoking. For the price they paid for a carton of their cigarettes they could have bought an outfit for their kids. I see one of the ladies going into the liquor store all the time. Quit spending money there and buy clothes for your kids.
My DH and I do NOT have a lot of money. In fact this has been the worst year financially for us. Yes I buy clothes for Susanah, but I also pay my bills and make sure my kids have what they need. It isn't my fault they put other things ahead of their children.
I really don't like this town.
