It Was a Stroke of Luck, Not Planning

On December 21, 2015, Monday, after work, I went to Wal-Mart http://www.walmart.com/ ostensibly to pick up a few items.  By the time I got into the store, I decided to do what amounted to my weekly shopping for non-perishables that I would normally do on 12/26/15.  Because I did not want to be in the store on Saturday the day after Christmas. 

Saturday, the 26th, I stopped at Market Street http://www.marketstreetunited.com/ to pick up a few items.  The lines were horrible.  All of Lubbock turns out to the grocery stores when a storm is predicted, and of course, one was predicted for that night and the next day. 

It was a piece of luck, not planning or genius, that I had done my regular shopping on a Monday night, well in advance. 

Here it is, Tuesday a week later, and I am well situated for most everything.  And there is nothing essential that I do not have.  

That was a piece of luck.
