"Diss" Time Around

Madie and I spent the day together on Saturday while her mum worked (hang in there Shelley, tax season is almost over). I had errands to run before we went to the SPCA shelter to do some of my 'president' jobs. I had to make a stop at the dollar store to get some items for the event there this weekend, so Madie was anxious for her own shopping excursion. She was skipping excitedly ahead of me up the sidewalk of the Nashwaaksis strip mall on our way to the store. At which time, she promptly turns around and while still walking backwards to talk to me, shouts, "HURRY UP OLD WOMAN!" in her loudest Aunt-Angie-esque voice. I stop up short and say, "WHAT!" Seeing my expression, she wisely revises her command, "HURRY UP SLOWPOKE!" Good thing she turned around and kept on walking! Smart girl. ;-)
