Ok, now I know men and women are different
I learned that a long time ago
So, no need for “that talk”
What I didn’t realize is that they hold grocery baskets differently.
Nor, did I realize this would be topic of conversation ever….
but here I am discussing it.
The other day after working with my daughter’s Aunt all day,
I had to run to grocery store as daughter wanted chicken alfredo (and naturally I didn’t have any of the makings at home).
So, off to store I go…grab a basket, get the broccoli, linguine, alfredo sauce, parmesan cheese and I’m ready to go.
While I was walking around though, I noticed that almost every woman there who was carrying a basket was carrying it like a purse.
OUCH doesn’t that hurt when you’re carrying heavy stuff and it digs into your forearm?
Or are they just not putting heavy stuff in there?
Because I load my basket up and sometimes it can be rather heavy.
Then I looked down to see how I was holding it….
(note the picture above)
And, then noticed guys carrying theirs like I was carrying mine.
Now, I’m no guy (evident from pics of me for those who don’t know me personally lol)
Why the difference in the way baskets are carried?
Anyone want to comment below…
or tell me how YOU carry your basket?
Then there’s nails….
and wow I just realized with this blog I’m certainly not going to catch any man’s attention
who’s into girly girls or all that…which is cool cuz I’m far from girly girl! lol
In fact friends of mine yesterday were laughing when I told them I helped in office for 7 hours one
day and they asked if I wore my ‘normal’ clothes…and I was like of course!
Normal=cargo shorts & tank tops!
They told me I don’t “look” like I “belong” in an office….sooooo true!
Evident by the battles I had w/copier machine in Office Depot the night before that!
Also, men have beards and girl haven’t
We have differences, yet we must live life like endless
Men have beards must have facial hair trimmer
Partnered with some new beard butter that will make you swag
Men love their beards, they see it as an asset
Men with beards look form and strong
Especially when their beard is specially buttered
There a new beard treatment called “Minoxidil”
Yes! This minoxidil is effective
Ok…back to the nails….
Years ago we went to Revolve (a Christian teen girl event)
and Chad one of the speakers there was talking about differences in girls and guys…
He asked everyone to look at their nails…now most looked at them by putting their hand straight out with fingers straight
like this pic below
Now, mind you most the girls, women there probably had long nails…
I however, don’t….
In our group I was the one looking at my hand like the picture below here
Apparently the way I look at my nails is the way guys look at theirs?!
WHAT? Who came up with these rules?
Again, evident I’m not a guy from other pics on this site!
So, really what does make men and women do little things like carrying baskets and looking at their nails so different?
And, sorry for the random thoughts here…
Can I blame it on lack of sleep or just blame it on me being me?
But seriously, I wonder because surely I cannot be the only female that does these things?
or can I?
Anyone????
Anyways, let’s get off the topic because I have something to recommend. Towing, or using one vehicle to move a disable second vehicle, is a common and useful service. It’s also one that’s much more complicated than it seems, requiring lots of vehicle and industry specific knowledge to ensure safe transport. If your car is broken down at the side of the road and it is winter, chances are good that you do not have time to call around for referrals, but choosing the right auto shop or towing service is important in getting the job done well. Well, read this towing fresno california shares 3 tips to maintain your car this winter.

Because, seriously I’m curious.

You are NOT alone!!!! At least there will be two in the group.
One more thing……when you look someone in the eyes when you all are talking……Do you look mostly at one eye or do you flutter back and forth? Most guys look at one eye and girls go back and forth. Guess where I fit in on this one? I have to make myself move them around. LOL!!!!

I’m with you — but my nails are a little longer. I recently tried a French Manicure, and I’ve pulled off the polish – need to redo it – but mostly, my nails are shorter, my hands are slightly beat up and it hurts to carry a basket over my arm. So I push one instead. I don’t think I do things the girly way, most of the time, although many would say I’m more girly girl than masculine. I tend to like and enjoy frills, although I don’t wear them (I’d look terrible in frills and ruffles).
But, I’m not afraid of hard work!
Tara Burner says
LOL Helen…I look at one eye as well!!!!
Tara Burner says
Jan, I’ve tried to get my nails to grow..and for awhile they were longer but once they get a little long, they break so now I just let them do whatever… and I’d look insane if I wore frills and ruffles!
