Each week I shop Senior Shopping at 6 am on Tuesday at Wal-Mart! The past two weeks I drove right past the gas station at Wal-Mart and forgot to get gas. Not a big deal since driving is at a minimun right now.
The thing is if I continue to forget, soon it will be empty. I sent myself an email that said
Buy Gas Today Dummy..
I get there at 10 to 6, and the gas station is closed, the first time ever. I drive over and park, pull out my phone to pass the time while waiting 10 minutes for the store to open.
I tap on emails, nothing new, I tap on FB nothing new, I tap on Feedly and it says Feedly is not available try back in 15 minutes.
WHAT?? is going ON?
OOPS! Mind Games by a Senior Citzen.
I keep the phone on Wi-fi to save data.
To use it in the parking lot I HAVE TO TAP the ON DATA button...
By the time I tap the data on button, the store is open, the woman who was late opening the gas station now has it open. I rush in the door with 6 other seniors, race madly to get out of the store before it opens at 7 to the younger masses who refuse to wear a mask descend on the aisles.
Buy gas AFTER shopping, which makes the traffic on Cortez impossible, as I pumped and fussed about people being late I noticed the sky! It was much more amazing than this photo. As I drove out I snapped this from the station and all the way home was facing this wondrous sun rise.
So what if I can't remember to buy gas. I am thankful I have the money for gas, a safe hour to shop, and thankful I can still SEE and Drive and and walk, and email etc and TAKE PHOTOS!
when I think about all my happiest memories of the past year, there is one common denominator.
All of YOU, my blogger friends.
Last but not least I am thankful I have all of you in my life!
