Thanks for the heads up! One of the reasons I didn't want to hire a contractor to fix some stuff on my house is bc I know they are booked up (plus there are no licensed residential ones left alive in my area).
Yesterday I took Mom to the foot doctor to get her nails trimmed & feet checked out. I need to put moisturizer on her feet more often. She had cracking skin near her toes. She has hammertoes so she can't straighten them out and that makes creases on the foot near her toes.
Went to Samsclub & on the way in I saw an altercation that almost turned deadly. Black lady was driving slowly through pedestrian crossing area in front of the store. White lady was heading toward the store with a flatbed cart full of flooring. She was approaching rapidly toward the side of the black lady's car. Black lady, whose car was already ahead, tried to swerve to get out of the way of the white lady. White lady was apparently pissed off that there was a car in her way so she rammed her cart into the car. Black lady got out & started calling her stupid & asking why she rammed her car as her kids jumped out to see if there was damage. White lady (who was on the opposite side of the car as the driver) pulled out a gun and started waving it around at the black lady & her kids. Other people told the white lady to stow it asap. She put her gun away & started arguing back & forth with the driver. Driver was screaming & swearing at her about ramming her car & having the nerve to pull a gun on her for it. White lady claimed she felt threatened (black lady was leaning on her door and looked like she had mobility issues). I passed them & was at the front of the store, I started to pull out my phone to record but the white lady saw me & stopped arguing. She headed toward the store. So I turned & grabbed a cart and barely got out of the way as the b**** tried to ram me with her cart. I told her to watch out and called her a stupid b**** but she didn't dare pull her gun on me. She suddenly tried to act like the victim & went to the store greeter claiming the black lady had threatened her life and she'd been forced to pull a gun-- which was absolute BS. She was blocking the door & the greeter looked alarmed at the mention of a gun. Told her to go to the returns section (bc she was returning stuff). She started to argue but the greeter very firmly & calmly repeated the instructions so she huffed and pushed her cart over to returns-- nearly mowing down an elderly couple on her way. Oh, she also said that the other lady had run over her cart when she was the one who rammed the car. I hope that they get their security people to show the cops the footage so she can be arrested. She shouldn't have a gun if she is going to pull it out & wave it around like that when there is no real threat. I may be slightly biased since she tried to ram me. It's a good thing she didn't bc I'd be in jail for throat-punching her.
Other than that, trip was uneventful. I loaded up some water, headed home, dropped Mom off, got my brother to help unload water & then he went with me to get feed (I couldn't lift the sacks bc of my rotator cuff having had enough with the water cases).
Can't sleep right now bc it's the anniversary of my dad's death. Hard to believe it's been 12 years now. Feels like it was only 2 years. Been looking at pics of him and crying (helps to get it out of my system). I miss him every day. I constantly wonder what he would think about things, what he would say, wish he could see new tech, wish he could see the kitties (he'd love them), but sometimes I'm relieved he didn't see the pandemic, issues with govt, etc.
It is good in that everything is getting a going through and plenty going in the garbage. There will be more to go through when we unpack it on this end - isn't that always the case? Hubby's not an organizer so sometimes interesting. I have "stuff" too, but usually it's has some order to it. Big prayers it sells for a big price in a small time 
But of course that's what we all hope for. I slept like a rock last night! I will go into work this morning, but will head back up to take care of a few things and get more "stuff".
