Well worked out, Mrs. B!

I am short so I put my feet on the fenders, & pack the floor with bags, as well as hang bags off the armrests. I have my walker holder on the back with hooks, & I can hang bags from there too.

I always bring my groceries home on the scooter, but I use it as my shopping cart around the store too, so nobody but me touches it. I know how to pack things so I can bring home a pretty hefty load, including bags of flour or potatoes. I could always go every day too until I got everything I needed, but now, I shop non perishables on amazon or other sites, & only get the fresh food at the grocery store, every 10 days or so.
The greenhouse provides many of our veggies through a couple of months but it's a short season.
No, we have no such program here that I know of. We had one at one time called Helping Hands, but it no longer exists.

Oh! I forgot! A scooter isn't the best transport system for a household's food supply. How did you get your groceries before COVID?
$30.00 is too steep and with the rising cost of food, one would have to live off of the land. Does Rick's greenhouse supply enough fresh greens in the summer? I know winter growing is impossible, it least it is for our greenhouse.
In Spokane, we had a program, "Senior Services," that helped solve these kinds of problems; is there such a program in Williams Lake?

And nobody touches my scooter, but me.

Don't know. Online shopping is brand new here, so I'm still in learning stage at what they do. Even with pick up, they don't know how to do it to go on my scooter....I have to do that.

Should have been fired in 2017.

Our local grocery store will fill our shopping list and Larry can pick it up in his vehicle. He doesn't even have to go into the store. Is your store willing to provide this service, Mrs. B?

Thank you Chris B. It has been a lovely day and I look forward to a healthy 85th year. Jeez! where did the years go?

Thank you, Ian & Mrs. B, for your greeting and for the beautiful bouquet of roses, Mrs. B.
Laura asked what I would like for take-out-dinner, Mexican or Asian; I said Pizza with anchovies! It was delicious. And the pizza parlor included a "birthday pie" of pizza dough w/raspberry filling. It was delicious! Laura and Larry even sang "Happy Birthday" for me. This party wasn't like the usual birthday parties with a crowd of granddaughters' families with grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and it was sweet!
The pizza place is holding on by serving take-out. We support them in their efforts. and they wear face masks and change sanitary gloves with each order.
Our beloved Mexican restaurant created a drive-thru, as well. They are a Mexican family with mom, pop, and adult children working to keep their business going.
I feel wretched that so many small businesses have gone bankrupt! Damn! that Faux-POTUS-Trump who golfed his way through his last year in office. He should have been convicted the first time he was impeached.
