After fixing us a light supper, I have my cotton nightie on. I had a great trip up North to take in all the hard work that Kersten had put in on an appreciation day at the Casey’s that she manages. It was also to celebrate and make known the fact that they are open 24/7. I found out that the Fairfax store is one of the few and far in between that has put on an event such as what was today. It seems at the last moment other managers have backed out, but not my “go get-’em” daughter-in-law. Kevin could take in all the car traffic at the Casey’s from his place of work just a bit to the east. Ya, I had a hard time getting out of the way from someone that wanted my parking spot. I know I got the car horn and I did not wait to see if there was any visual message as well.
It was just a great trip to the north country.
I stopped for groceries in town on my way home. We have always had two large grocery stores. Not so anymore. The one that we have enjoyed is closing the end of June. I will miss the people that always greeted you with a smile. I do believe the Family Dollar Store has impacted the shopping habits of our community. I frequent it as I know that my dollar does go farther and it all counts up. Anyway, by the time I got the groceries into the house and put away, I really felt extremely warm. I could not wait to get into something that was totally cotton to cool down enough to get supper on the table. I am like my Dad. I get hot quickly and sweat to no end. In the heat it is all about pacing one’s self, and from the forecast, I will be pacing myself a lot.
