How do I always manage to get into the slowest checkout line every time I go shopping? I spent half an hour in line today at Superstore! This is no exaggeration. The 19 year old kid working the till was the slowest I had ever seen. Why does this alway happen to me? At what point should I have given up and switched lines? I kept thinking how I'd invested so much time and that it would eventually pay off. I would be out of here in no time. But the line next to me continued to move at twice the speed of the one I was in.
Sigh.... Sunday night already... I had a good weekend. I skipped Jazzercise on Saturday morning (after actually starting to get back into some sort of habit of going, having somehow made it to class the 3 Saturdays prior,) and went for breakfast with Aaron at a place called Wake in Kensington. They have all day breakfast on the weekends. I can't remember what it was called on their menu, but the breakfast sandwich I ordered had cheese, eggs, bacon and ham between two pieces of french toast. :) It was like a freakin' McGriddle! So bad... But so good... Either way, it was a great breakfast spot. Try it out some day if you're looking for something new.
Try meditating/praying when you are standing in the line-up at the supermarket. I find that really helps me. I start thanking God for all my blessings: starting with having money to go to the supermarket to buy food. Then I look at the people around me and I start praying for them. Even though you don't know them, you know they have lives and have families and have problems. You'll be amazed how that will help the time pass, and it sure isn't time wasted, that way!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruth! That's a pretty good suggestion. But people with iPhones don't have to pray to pass the time...
