Handicapped?

This is completely inappropriate...but some of you will appreciate the humor. My dear mother, bless her heart, has a pet peeve about people parking in handicapped spots when they are, in fact, not handicapped. So, yesterday as she was out shopping alone (meaning without one her children to keep her in line) spotted a lady parking in a handicapped spot who was not handicapped, nor had anyone with her who was handicapped. My mom rolls down her window to politely remind the lady that she was not handicapped, but the lady was so UNhandicapped she was walking away so quickly my mother was too late. Well, that's not going to stop my mom! She parks the car, finds a piece of paper and pen, writes the poor lady a note and puts in under her windshield wipers. The note explains that she should not be parking there when she is not handicapped, etc. The note ends with my sweet mother's words (which she thought were very mean and would surely teach this outlaw a lesson) so...SHAME ON YOU! I only wish I could have been there to see this lady get her hate note!

Thats so awesome! I say power to your mom, although sometimes I wish I could get my hands on a handicap sign just to use the parking spots! Bad I know.

How I love you mom! That is so funny. I am so glad you shared that with us, and I too wish I could have been there when the lady came back.
