16. It was crazy out there yesterday. Real "holiday" spirit.

Numerous people cutting others off in traffic, pushing, shoving, & numerous verbal attacks. I detest this area.

Too many meth heads & rednecks.

While I was in Aldi, a woman in a huge suv parked next to him, crooked, nearly sideways.

She proceeded to walk over to our car which he had parked straight & within the lines, & vehemently cussed him out for the way he parked.

He told her to learn how to drive & park, open her eyes, & quit trying to blame others for her own inability to drive & park. Of course she continued to rant & cuss at him, but hd didn't pay attention, so she left.

Violence & property damage is so high here, he drives me to grocery to protect car from vandals & auto theft. And to protect me from being mugged for the food I buy.

A real shithole. Like living in a 3rd world country.

Glad you've planned ahead & will be staying in! I'm not going out till we need food again.

Idk how people survive using denial as a survival mechanism.

Happy Holidays!
