So there's a grocery store in our area that I have avoided as much as possible since we moved here. The time I went there, it left me with a bad impression... dirty, unorganized and I felt very out of place there. As I have been reevaluating my shopping habits and what I'm spending, I found that this particular store had the best deals on the things I needed this week. I decided I'd give it another try, so armed with two children, my list and my coupons, I made another attempt this morning. I was determined this experience would be better than the last and I was pleasantly rewarded. The store was not at all crowded, it was clean and while it isn't laid out as well as some of the others I frequent, I found everything I needed fairly easily. The best part, however, was the customer service. Everyone I encountered in the store was very pleasant, genuinely interested in assisting me in finding the things I was shopping for. My checkout girl was so happy to help me and I left feeling great that I had saved money and had such a great experience. I will definately return and shop there again.
As I sort through our mountains of laundry that always accompany the return home, I am grateful for the zillions of clothes that we have, and that I don't have to wash them by hand!
I am grateful for the hope that Seneca and Cooper will eventually return to local time and not be awake and rearing to go at 6:00 a.m.!
I am grateful for the opportunity I am having to practice my patience as we wait to see if Denten's professional path is going to take another direction.
I am grateful dinner showed up at my door tonight, right on time and requiring no effort on my part!
I am grateful for a backyard, small as it may be, and that Cooper has a wonderful time out there all by himself; well himself and his "boys." Ah, the joy of imaginary friends.

I love how grateful you always are of your blessings, big and small. Allows me to step back and see things for myself and ways I can too also be grateful!
Was your grocery store Wal Mart??? It had to be!!! I am glad it was a better experience for you...
Tell more about Denten's profession taking a turn? Would that mean a move? New location? Raise? Do give some details! (even if you just send me an email:)
ummm, what was the store?!
I'm trying to think of the store & I don't have to think too hard. I'm glad you decided to bite the bullet & save some money AND more importantly, it wasn't a hassle as it can sometimes be!
Okay, tell me of this mystery store? It could not be Wal-Mart since I have NEVER experienced good customer service there. I have major issues with the crazy, over-crowded, under staffed Wal-Mart. Plus, they never have carts. Goodness! Anyway, glad your shopping experience was better. Fill me in on the good store!
