How do you do good people? Have a great day or something like that.

On Mother’s Day, I took my mother to Walmart to get groceries and a few other things. While there I noticed there were some big changes. The biggest change was they have made the store entirely self check out. Gone are the cashiers that checked out customers for years.

Please know I am not a snob but I am not inclined to go there very often if I have to do the work of checking out a ton of groceries. Also, the fact they eliminated some employment opportunities is concerning for those looking for cashier positions. I feel that as a customer I should expect some level of service considering how much I am spending.

Come on Walmart, you can do better.

Happy Mother’s Day to my lovely mother for all she is and all she’s done for family and friends. I love you mom.

Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers everywhere. Grace and peace and love to you all.

It’s human to feel blue. Hopefully the feeling will be there for a moment and not trend like something on Twitter. I can tell you that this sort of thing isn’t fun but not everything in life is supposed to be fun. Like anything you just have to get through it.

This was my first week back in the office since the pandemic changed our world. I admit I was sad to leave the confines of my home office but like a professional, I did what was asked of me.

In case you do not know what, I do, I work for a regional blood bank calling donors to schedule them to donate blood. It was a very productive week and I over-performed which was a help to my co-workers and the organization.

As Star Trek’s Mr. Spock would say “Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few”. So, my being back in the office is logical and helpful, I think.

So, as I look ahead to week two back in the office, I hope I will continue to settle in and do my best. I hope for good things to come being back in the office. Attitude can be everything.

It’s been a long week and you deserve a treat. This coffee and scone are treats from Sunnyside Cup coffee, a local place that serves good stuff.

Have a great Friday my friends.
