Show and tell

Remember when I posted pictures of grocery shopping trips—pictures on Three Quarters and Counting? It has been almost a month (since I posted pictures) and I almost forgot how to upload pictures (1) from the camera (2) to the computer, (3) to a blog message.

My day started very early when I took a shower and dressed for a trip to a scheduled doctor’s appointment. I hate Waco traffic but I was forced to start my trip—in the dark—at 7:15 AM. I was praying every mile of the route crowded with early-morning traffic. The semi-annual “routine” appointment went very well–no problems. Much as I hate “shots” my wonderful doctor encouraged me to have the Covid booster and a flu shot. Then blood was drawn at the Lab so I am suffering with pain in my left upper arm (from the three…).

Speaking of pain: Those few groceries did not include meat, soft drinks, liquor, coffee, cake, cookies, or veggies. Several apples, a package of sliced cheese, and a loaf of bread were the only perishables. Yes, HEB store-brand Oats and Honey snack bars. Drano, toilet tissue, and some items from the “drug store” section boosted the cost. OMG, I almost have a heart attack thinking about the cost of groceries for a family with parents and children.
