I walked to a store about 4 miles / 6.4 kilometers away, bought a bunch of school supplies and walked back. For an hour or so after I returned to the #hotel, one hand was twitching and trembling.
I think I'll send a couple of decades of my age to someone in Quebec. I didn't used to have such things happening.
Note to Quebecois: if you get a box from California, that's from me. It'll age you 20 years and send the youthfulness back to me.
I still have two more grandkids to shop for, but this batch has everything I planned to get except for Kindergarten writing pads, which use a landscape format and extra-wide line spacing. Broke a record: over $100 per kid without any electronics involved, and I really didn't get much.
washable crayons, washable color markers, watercolors, pencils and pencil sharpeners, 200 sheets of wide ruled three hole paper, two three ring binders, ten Staples brand folders, safety scissors. Not even erasers. This wasn't even everything on the supplies list that the school sends out.
