Default Now is the Winter of Our Discontent

Dry morning, but now starting to rain. Got my grocery shopping done early. They tried to overcharge me as usual, but I force the clerk to go back over every item till at least identified most of the overcharge. Shopping Safeway's on sale items is a good deal if can get them to honor their offers, which is not always easy. I can only imagine how much they are gouging people who just let them ring up whatever they like!

Now a balmy 48F as of 1 PM here in Gresham. Starting to rain. Calm. Humidity 74%.

Saw the first sign of spring, daffodils poking up through the ground by an old church I walk by on the way here.
