lists, hustle, bustle
no parking and a cranky
little one....
white knuckled derby
on cart with shonky wheels
dodging packers, shelf stackers
and half the universe(ity)
hungry, tired need to be fed
stuck behind an old couple
could not be worse
no checkout chicks
just the self serve aisle
****** going to be here
for a long slow while
home at last
take the freezer bags in
the rest left in the car
until we break the fast
lasagne in the micro
"someone's momma made it"(???)
bag of salad on the side
so we get some green
"okay troops dig in"
finally all unpacked
stored and ordered
now for my reward
ten minutes of poetry
and a big block of
chocolate sin.

shopping on payday in a uni town
is always a trial...especially in winter
but came home and after dinner
popped onto hp....and found a wonderful set of poems from woody... and thus this came about
