My daughter and I masked up and went to Costco yesterday. I didn't want to spend much money as I have been ordering things online since the early part of the year and getting home delivery, so I didn't need a whole lot. But it was fun just getting out after visiting her eye doctor and having a comprehensive examination of my eyesight. I was certainly tired by the time I got home. My regular eye specialist retired and the doctor who saw me last week was dismal, so I am ready for a new doctor!
At Costco I bought a bottle of champagne to celebrate Biden's win this coming Tuesday, although I'm not sure an absolute winner will be declared on that day. It would be wonderful if the results are indicative of the Dems winning by Tuesday evening. I've also ordered an American flag and holder to put outside, and I was hoping to fly it on election day, if it gets here by then.
I don't know what it will be like here in my city and neighborhood, or in yours. But let's hope things don't get out of hand and people getting hurt.
I plan to stay in the entire day and evening, even to the point of just taking Rocky out into the backyard and not walking on the streets. Fortunately I have a very large backyard, plenty of room for him to chase a ball and wear himself out.
I hope everyone stays safe, and that our neighborhoods are relatively quiet this coming week.
My hope also.
ReplyDeleteI am not even allowing myself to think we can win back the White House and install a man worthy of the most important job in the world.
ReplyDeleteI do not want to get my hopes up only to have them dashed by the outcome of this election being decided in the courts.
I also worry about the crazies that follow this illegitimate president and all the chaos they are capable of causing. It is NOT going to be pretty.
I worry too, but have to remain hopeful.
DeleteGypsy I sure hope you get to crack that bottle open. I have a bottle of wine and I just may do the same if out dream comes true Tues.
ReplyDeleteHappy you went to Costco with your daughter getting out even just once in a while can keep us sane. I'm going to have to go do some shopping as this delivery is just not cutting it anymore. To many missing items and they don't seem to care anymore. Guess the are making a fortune on this delivery thing so who cares if they lose a customer.
I notice that several items I order are unfilled because they are out of stock. This morning when I was only half awake, the thought came to me that the govt. is buying up a lot of items to stockpile for when things get worse!
DeleteWishing your dream comes true and there is no outside interference or violence.
ReplyDeleteHoping the new Eye Doctor works out better for you.
Just getting out for a walk will help to lift your spirits at this time.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
I think we will have violence as long as we have a president who condones and even encourages violence. Hopefully we won't have to wait much longer for a decent person to take the helm.
