…it was my late evening trip to the grocery store that did it last night.
I live in a small (tiny) town and the only grocery store we have is a Food Lion which, while I can get the basic necessary staples, does not offer much in variety or much for the health conscious, let alone a vegetarian. Imagine my surprise as I walk into the crazy mess of a remodel to not only find new, clean refrigeration units but also a whole section dedicated to organics! And not only are they carrying organics now but a few of my favorite health food lines! No longer must I travel 35 minutes out of town to pick up veggie taco filling or my yummy flax seed granola or little fruit sticks for my girl! I was so excited that I ended up hanging out for 45 minutes instead of my planned 15.
As I was checking out the colourful bagger claimed, “Everybody’s going organic!” I laughed and told her that it wasn’t all that new, it’s just that we had all been going to the city to do our shopping.
On top of this wonderful news I have even more wonderful news. I found another wonderful home daycare only this one is on my way to work rather than 20 minutes out of town. I feel badly about moving my girl as the lady that is currently watching her is really just lovely but an hour and 20 minutes a day is an hour and 20 minutes a day.
I could really do a happy-happy dance right now.

Grace: Glad you enjoyed. I often feel silly writing about such “normal” things.
