i’m a big fan of peas and pea soup!I went grocery shopping today as well. Since Mom isn't here, I could buy snap peas to include in dinner. She hates peas.
My dreams are very small.

I don't care about the price of gas or the cost of food what does bother me is that there seems to be a shortage of frozen peas. I can put up with all the rest, but I consider that to be unacceptable.

Yes, when my Pop retired from IBM at age 62, he didn’t stop working/keeping busy. He did yard work for people, worked at the next door neighbors liquor stores, volunteered to do taxes for the elderly, etc. As of recently, Pop’s not doing any of that anymore, although both Mom and Pop still do their own yard work, and they both stay busy with other things, such as at church, etc.
They’ve slowed down somewhat…Mom will be 84 next April, and Pop will be 90 in January. But, I drove by their house a coupla’ weekends ago, while running an errand, and Mom was in one of the flower beds and Pop was mowin’ the yard…fortunately, still quite the Energizer Bunnies for those ages…!!!!!

Repeating my response from another thread..
Back on Halloween 2015 I took that ship from Rome for a 10 day excursion around areas in the Mediterranean and then across the Atlantic to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It was one of the most fun trips I was ever on.

I'm wondering if it's regional as I don't have a problem getting them up here

It's super cute in person. The music is an earworm. I'll admit GMR was a once a trip ride for us, if that, and MMRR we do at least once when we're over at DHS.OK, just watched yet another stream POV of MMRR. I’ll reserve final judgement for when/if I ever ride it in person, but, it just looks like such a disjointed, Cartoon Network-ish style, mess. Right now, I still just don’t get it…
I'm hoping to get out to DL next summer and ride their version, which is supposed to be different when it opens.

No idea....we don't have walmart here, so I haven't been to one since 2019. But they still had them then.

I have two Walmart's within 3 miles and two more within 10 miles. They don't have greeters anymore. Well I guess they do, but their primary job is the last chance to prevent shop lifting. If everything in your cart is in a bag they wave you through if you have something alone with no bag they ask to see your receipt.

So essentially, they're now security employees, versus the old greeter job definition. That's too bad.

Yes, if I'm not mistaken, he was there right when the Grand first opened, until his early 90s. He was distinguished, and welcoming to all the guests.

Yep, as I posted, I’ll reserve final judgement ‘til I ride it in person, hopefully sometime in the not-too-distant future, as video just isn’t doin’ it for me.
Probably doesn’t help that I’m not much a fan of the newer Cartoon Network-like, Johnny Bravo, Powerpuff Girls, etc.-type animation, either.

I must be oblivious because when I was in Walmart in SC back in December, I didn't notice.
Also, the girl at the self checkout let me buy wine without checking my ID and I'm still feeling insulted by it.
