We made it-hallelujah! We postponed departure date to the regular scheduled Thursday blizzard and instead, made it out on Saturday. Dragging the boat made for three long days on the road. Horrible gas mileage (and prices) made for many truck stop stations. I continue to be enthralled by those places. Yearning for a decent crossword puzzle, I was amazed to find NO newspapers; however a whole rack of potted meat was fully stocked. Most places still fully and proudly display confederate flag merch and apparently truckers love their beanie babies, again, fully stocked.
Today I endured the necessary initial Publix torture as I filled an empty refrigerator. I would rather dig a ditch than grocery shop. Same goes for most malls.
I’ll take a good truck stop anyday-cuz sometimes you just need some dried up pizza, strong coffee, and a new beanie baby!
P.S. I cannot gripe about my frivolous issues without fully recognizing my privilege. I get it, this is just my silly side. My heart and prayers go out to the country and people of Ukraine. I admire their guts and heart as they risk their lives for things we take for granted. Please let this tragedy end soon.
