It's the little things...
Jul. 30th, 2021 06:01 pm... that can make you or break you.
I had to make a food run today. Just some basic stuff, as the fridge was half-empty again. Plus I needed to fill up our depleted ginger ale and mineral water supplies. We drink more than usual in this frigging heat.
I've got a very practical little plastic frame for a six-pack of 1,5l water bottles that I always take with me when I have to buy drinks. I'm beyond the age when I'd be able to haul home those six-packs in their original package, which is the reason why I only buy 4 each time and put them into my practical little frame. Guess what happened today? Lidl didn't have the 1,5l bottles, just the 2l ones. Which don't fit into the frame; they're too thick. So I had to drag them home in a shopping bag; only 2 of them, because I couldn't carry more.
Yes, I know it isn't the end of the world. It's still annoying when you can't use a practical little gizmo that would make your life easier.
