Getting the wind knocked out of your sails.......

I'm sure everyone knows how that feels.
It doesn't have to be something huge
just something really disappointing.

Since we've been in the process of moving to a smaller
home, I've made trip after trip to Goodwill and donated
to several organizations but.....

I thought some of my better things, personal clothing, etc.
would sell in a nice big consignment store that we have close by.

Lulu's is very convenient AND I've spent lots of money in there
buying household things, clothing, jewelry and purses.

This is getting to be a long story but the gist of it is....
today I bought some things and when I got to the check out
I asked for an inventory sheet.
I told the lady that I had not seen the Dooney and Bourke purse
that I had brought it about a month ago for consignment.
She checked on the computer and this is what it said,
"It was a fake and was donated."

What a shock!
As if hearing they had declared it a fake was not
enough of a shock....it was GONE....it was DONATED!
And they didn't call or email me!

I talked to the owner and realize their policy is valid.
They cannot sell fake items.
And she kept telling me that she was sorry that I had bought a fake.
Well, I am sorry I did, too....
but I am MORE sorry that I don't have it anymore!

So that knocked the wind out of my sails today.
I know I will feel better later but right now
I feel a little like someone ripped me off...
TWICE!

I don't think I have ever used my blog to vent
but so many of you feel like real girlfriends now
and my husband would rather I talk to one of you!

He's good for HUGS...but he's about talked out on this subject!
heeheehee!

Have a great day! I feel better now!
