NOTES BEYOND PIZZA

In the last of the May Grey, we headed off to Costco yesterday before our usual round of evening news.  I worry about the families on Hawaii, but I don’t care a fig for Rosanne.  She’s leading the news.  I really am angry about Trump also, still I truly care about our country.  I care about our world also, come to think of it.

He spent the day making a Costco list.  Having been broke for many years, I always ask first, “Do we have any money?”  We did.

So after pizza and a Very Berry Sunday, I bought cookies.  I got one of those giant jars of animal crackers.  Yes, I know I certainly don’t need the calories, but I buy them for the store.  I grab a handful on days that I am there, but everyone else must grab a few too.  They vanish fast.  They also weren’t on the list.

The list was, fiber, Angus burgers, muffins, and G’s breakfast protein drink.  We walked out with a whole cart full.  A book with new pictures of Ocean Beach, then blueberry muffins, and a pre-cooked chicken, followed by the fiber, and lastly an American flag.  Yes, a modern flag with 50 stars.  Our flag is a 48 star flag.  This new one is a class act that came with a pole too. 

I confess.  I react.  The airways are full of commercials for the upcoming election.  I already voted.  I don’t want to hear any more.  I confess this is the first time I have voted a full party ticket.  In reaction, I know.  I’m going to hang that American flag out above the front door too.  In reaction.

• Herself:  I don’t wave my politics here, but it’s time we all get out and vote our convictions.  Have a coach coming this afternoon with how-to tips on sit ups with broken ribs.  Picture: 2007.  Yes, the pizza was perfection with gooey melting cheese and tons of veggies.
