Trump Coming to My Town

 I won't be there. They are directing traffic from the interstate which is how we would travel. Cullman is very excited. Today, Cullman declared a state of emergency because of covid, so I wonder how 20,000 unmasked people will fare. 

Cullman is in District 4, the best district in the US for Trump with over 80% voting for Trump for president in 2020. 

Friday, we left home at 2pm and got back at 5 pm. I waited in a parking lot because only one electric cart in The Pig was working. Finally, we went to another store. I left because my cart was beeping and dying at the back of the store. We went back to the Pig and I bought zucchini and squash, can of kale, and PB bogo, 2.$4. Then, we went to Publix where I got Tommy's milk, Pepsi on sale b2g1, and Coke b2g1. He will drink a diet Coke if he runs out of Diet Pepsi. But, if I have to drink a Diet Pepsi, water is better. 

I have never been so frustrated as I was today while shopping for groceries. But, it is my fault for going on a Friday afternoon. A young guy, high-schooler, customer said there was a ball game tonight. He said that was one reason for the crowd. I don't know. 

Right now, I must get Tommy onto "skinning carrots" while I prepare the bscb I thawed ready for baking. He will have peas and I will have green beans. Yes, from a can. I forgot to buy fresh green beans. 

Will you be in Cullman on Saturday to root for Trump on Saturday?  What are you planning for this weekend?

Dispirited--The Day After

 At 3:30 am I finally turned off the TV. At around 5:30 am, I finally slept. Tommy woke me just before 11 am per my request. I did not sleep well even though I slept soundly. 

There are enough dishes in the kitchen to keep both of us busy for a long time today. We ate all the leftovers except the blackeyed peas in the crockpot. So, I have to cook again! 

Getting my driver's license had been postponed until Friday or maybe next week. 

I feel dispirited. I know the feeling will pass. Maybe I need to eat since it has been over 13 hours since I last ate. LOL...I could just eat my way out of this funk? Maybe some blackeyed peas with catsup all over? 

All day Wednesday I did not step outside the house. And, today, it's raining out. Sunshine would improve my head. I know this will pass. I never give up hope. But, I am sad and grateful.
