Wow, I remember--
kinda--what it was like, to be able to run out whenever you needed milk or the like.
Maybe I remember..
Nah...no, I
don't. Once you have a 30-mile-plus roundtrip to any commercial establishment of any kind--grocer, druggist, etc.--planning all trips becomes simply routine. The biggest effect upon my shopping habits due to CV-19 is that
now I'm limited to pretty much two (2) of everything. ;-) Which is definitely a pain in the ass for those of us accustomed to buying in bulk. We plan our trips a week in advance and maintain "The List," the High Holy List of "Stuff We Need," so that we don't forget anything (and of course, promptly forget stuff all the time--sigh).
