Avoiding an Accident

When we dropped Laura off at the airport, we went to Costco in Orlando.  We had dinner before we went shopping and they give you unlimited refills for your drinks.  So when we were going through the check out, I went and filled our drink glass again.  I came back to help Barb with the bags and put my full cup of Pepsi on the counter where the groceries were.  Then I lifted the bag of groceries right over the glass and put it in the cart.  It was a heavy bag and I had to lift it quite high to get it over the glass with the straw sticking out.  Later, I thought how lucky I was that I noticed the glass was there.  I could have knocked the glass over with the grocery bag and spilt the Pepsi all over the counter where the groceries go.  The workers would have been furious at me, not to mention all the people waiting in the check out line as they would have had to wait until we cleaned it all up.
