Wasn't planning on getting out today, but one son wanted to go to the library, and oldest daughter was home from work, so off we went. What began as a pleasant outing turned a bit overwhelming when I mentioned going to Kroger on the way home for some polish sausage to finish off the pinto beans I was simmering. I never go to that store, going instead to a small, family-owned store nearer our house---and the smaller store is less expensive than the chain store.
Folks must've been expecting bad weather (which might happen, or might not!)....the lines were horrible, and you'd have thought we were about to have Thanksgiving. I was so close to putting everything down (sure we grabbed more than the sausage--ha!), and running out the doors.
But, instead we were patient (well, in spirit) and waited it out. I'm not good in crowds and if you put me in a situation where I'm in line and sort of pinned in, well, I want to cry.
Tomorrow is a home day. I'm not going ANYwhere.
