I, OTOH, start hearing the siren call of my pillows around 8 P.M. And I
generally roll out about 4 A.M. According to what I've been reasding
that is "normal" for someone at my time of life. And my body requires
less sleep than when I wore a younger man's clothes.

I've been fighting getting something like that. I have a "walker" with
a basket on it from my medical kerfluffle(s) a couple months ago. But
I don't take it with when I leave home. If I am going to a store that
is less compact than Humphrey's Market I snag a cart (even if I'm only
getting a few things) and use it as a walker. I think it was you that
"pulled my coat" on that usage. Bv)=

I have very little of that going on in my grocery runs. Hy-Vee's "Aisles
On-Line" gives me the option of shopping on-line for staple items - and
I don't get tempted by the in aisle adverts and "shelf talkers". If I
get U$25 (minimum) in my cart they will pick it and bring it out to my
car at no extra charge. Tipping is discouraged - but I still tip on wet
or otherwise miserable days. Bv)=
Fresh meat and produce is never a pert of my "Aisle On-Line" order as
I prefer to select that sort of thing my own self.
