Butch and I went to Costco in DesMoines yesterday. We were curious as to how it would compare to South Texas. Not as well I am sorry to say. Yes, masks are required at both and a lady told the woman at the entrance that she had forgotten her mask and they provided one for her. That was all good. But it was crowded in there. Too crowded for comfort in my opinion. And the checkout area was not run well at all! In Texas, they had monitors making sure everyone knew what was expected and assisting them with compliance as in distancing and getting your items lined up and ready. In DesMoines, it was far more chaotic. If you had wanted a product that was up close to the checkout area you might as well forget it. And if you planned to wait it out until it cleared out a bit you would have been waiting a long time. If we head that way again and we probably will sometime, I think I would try a different time of day. We were there about noon and left close to two.
This morning I decided to spruce up the front area a bit so I bought a few geraniums and petunias at Bomgaars. Not many really because I do not want to spend all my time watering them trying to save my investment. It turned hot the minute June arrived so I had worked up quite a sweat by the time I got them situated in their new homes.
Butch went to the golf course. It seems he played well and it is probably as good for him as therapy will be. We have appointments lined up to get the therapy going again. We tried to get our second Shingles shot but they are not doing any vaccines yet. They said to check again in a few weeks.
My drivers license had expired but the courthouse is still closed. I did get an appointment for June 11th though. Butch's has not expired yet but will soon and they said to go online and request an extension. So we did. Lots of details to get taken care of.
