Aha! I might be on to something....

Have you ever noticed something for weeks, months, maybe even years in stores without buying it, only to discover you can't find it anywhere when you do want to obtain that item?

Once upon a time for my sister-in-law and me, it was egg plates. We each wanted one.

Then there was the search for a yellow bra, still not found. At least not in my size and comfort zone.

Did you know that a sheet of apple stickers cannot be found in any of the stores I visit?

And my most recent frustration has been in trying to find a popcorn bucket like the one I saw at a baby shower two weeks ago.

They were all over the place UNTIL I wanted one. I wanted to fill it with microwave popcorn packs, movie sized boxes of candy that have been on sale at Kroger, and a copy of Grumpy Old Men.

This was going to be for a 60th birthday party that we are invited to today. The movie isn't available either.

Thinking about this today, it dawned on me that many of us can't locate what we want when we want it.

I am about to provide a service to a very select group.

Do you know someone with wrinkles who wants to fill them out?
Do you know someone who is uncomfortable bumping into things because they have no padding?
Do you know someone who is too thin and would love to gain some weight?
(Stop laughing! There are a few people like that. I read about them. Once. They're a misunderstood minority!)

Tell your friends in need that their search is over. I am unselfishly going to offer my fat to anyone who wants to smooth out a wrinkle, pad a bony hip or boost the number on their scale.

Ain't I swell?

I guess I should throw in a word of caution about being careful what you look for. Those egg plates that my sister-in-law couldn't find years ago? I think between the two of us we now have seven of them.
