MAKEOVERS




Just before lunch time, we headed out into the brave new world.  There was a line heading into the bakery.  There was another line outside Target, and there was security directing traffic.  Right inside the door was a sign listing the most wanted items.  Did they have hand sanitizer….yes.

Right in the middle of this pandemic, Target is remodeling itself into a JC Penneys or Macy's.  In the months I have been shut away, everything is changing.  Most everyone wore their masks.  Everyone carried a cell phone.  Even houses changed colors while I was gone.  This store that carries everything, seemed to carry vastly less.

Spring colors everywhere too.  Pastille versions of all my favorites.  Gentle terra cotta, for instance.  Very odd.  The same thing could be said for the greyed olives.  One day when I feel rich, I will go get a few items.  Perhaps I will feel upgraded.

  • Myself:  Very tired.  Napping often.
  • Reading:  More Mayor.
  • Photo:  Two Battle of Britain fighter pilots taking a break under a wing.
  • Gratitude’s:  That I’m with George again.  That I had a mask to wear thanks to Carol.

  9. Even through the mask, I bet the fresh air was a blessing to you. Just being with George once more is worth more than gold. Love you both dearly. This is our new 'normal'--something to get used to, for sure.

  10. So glad you’re back, Mage. I haven’t been out to a store in 6 weeks so I haven’t seen the lines yet. We do plan to go tomorrow though and stock up again.
