Wonder Why

 

Alarm went off this morning and I told Sherri she could shower and get ready first. I was just too tired to get up that early and start getting ready. I just had this lazy streak shoot through me and I could not shake it.

Sherri was out of the shower in record time...or maybe it appeared that way because I was sleeping. Then it was my turn to shower and get ready. Got in the shower and really did not want to get out. Wanted to lay in the tub and let the water run over me while I slept for another hour. Can you do that???

Got through getting my morning chores done and it was time to go down and get some coffee. I can't go without it. I don't know why it does not stay with me long. No way I can drink coffee before I go on an extensive drive. The drive to work in only 5 minutes so I will risk two cups this morning.

We made it to work in good time and found that many folks arrived early today. Being an empty parking lot every day...one does not need to worry about a good spot to park. Soon the rest of the crew showed up and we went inside to get her done.

My topic today is "Wonder Why" I wonder about things that I don't understand and like to ask the question WHY. One of those questions I will pose to you today is why do they have Handicap spaces at Sonic? Now when I go to Sonic I stay in my car...punch the button a voice comes on the speaker and takes my order. When the order is ready no one says come and get it so I can stay in my car and a person brings it out. Now if I don't have to get out...why would a handicap have to? The Sonic here has...not one...but 5 handicap parking spaces and they are all just like the non handicap spaces.

That is my question for this week. I am sure there is a good explanation and when I read about it I will feel so much better.

Sorry I have not uploaded a bunch of pictures to the journal here of late. I have really not had any photo moments this last week. I hope to capture some good ones to put on soon. Until then you will just have to put up with my words written here...

It's probably just a municipal bylaw requiring all businesses to provide handicap spots regardless of the nature of the business. One size fits all, I guess!

Hey Speedy, The ADA (Admerican Disabilities Act) says all businesses have to have handicap spaces. Do you really think our guv'ment cares if you have to actually get out of your car or not? Here's another "Why" question... Why do they have braille on the keypads on drive-up ATMs? Should a blind person really be driving? :) Jim

You and Jim really need a life...you two are thinking way too much!

I think Jim has the right answer. And I have thought that before about drive though ATMs and braille.

Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Wishing you a good week.
