Memorial Day Shopping
May. 25th, 2025 08:47 pmThis afternoon, Lisa (whose sleep schedule has rotated back to the Dreaded Day Shift) asked if we could go to Reno for some grocery shopping and other errands. After I said goodbye to Kayla for the rest of the day and packed the small coolers with ice, Lisa and I headed into Reno. First we went to Staples for something Lisa wanted, then it was off to WinCo Foods, where it was much less crowded than it usually is on a Sunday afternoon. There were a few things she wanted that she couldn't get there, so we went to Raley's for them.
I'd been up since around 4 AM, which isn't that unusual for me, but my eyes were burning as we turned for home. I think there is a lot of pollen in the air. I can see that the cottonwoods are starting to shed. I'm glad I have tomorrow as a holiday and am not traveling this weekend any farther than I have already gone over the past two days. Kayla might go to the Wigwam tomorrow, but that's about the limits of our ambition at the moment.
