PG is feeling much better now. She's finished with the temporary meds that upset her stomach, so her appetite has returned. With her pain meds, she feels like getting out of the house again.
That's what we did today. Bought bird seed at WBU, then a stop at Whole Foods with the intent to pick up some buttermilk (for baking) and a can of Bianco DiNapoli tomatoes for pizza sauce. They had the former but not the latter. and that's the second straight time they've been sold out when I shopped there.
The manager at WBU doesn't look like a businessman, but he is, remembering customer names and pulling up their prior purchases.
At Whole Foods, it's possible to pay simply by holding my right hand above a sensor and having it scan my palm. Some places, I have to insert the card into a machine; at others, like WBU, I can tap the card on the machine, and now a few stores can receive payment information from a card that is in an app on my phone. Whole Foods dispenses with displaying a card at all. No need to bother with cash or a check ever again. Except I make a point of paying cash at the small local sub shop to save them the card charges.
Cold, windy, snow-covered. Remembering that in just a few weeks, they'll be in the past and there will be wildflowers along the road again. Probably numerous rabbits in the yard, too.
Budget tightening: going to drop the lawn care services we used last year. Researching liquid weed-and-feed and will pull the mower out of mothballs. Might need to get it tuned up first.
