White Trash or Homeless


We were able to spend time with Hayli Hartman this past Saturday.  It was so good to see her and great to spend time with someone who understands both Australian and American culture.  She shared lots of advice with us and gave us tips on things to do and places to see around Sydney.  We had several questions for her.  One question was in regard to the trollies/shopping carts.  We shared with Hayli our excitement about being able to wheel our groceries right up to our front door.  Another Aussie friend, who lives in America, had cautioned us that we shouldn't really be taking the carts away from the store.  Hayli confirmed that for us when she said that only white trash or homeless people take the carts!!  Well, thankfully we are not homeless so I guess that means we are white trash.  Hayli, thanks for your honesty.  We will take your advice to heart about not easily being offended. :) Well, the washing machine just beeped so I better go.  I need to hang up Damon's wife beaters.
