Did I tell you I was born and raised in El Paso? We used to go to Mexico also, and buy some stuff. I think I would be scared to do it today.

Johnson City is 45 minutes away. I can do some of my shopping and Elizabethton, which is between 20 and 30 minutes depending on the area of town. But I prefer to go grocery shopping and Johnson City, it’s cheaper.

When we first moved here I didn’t think it was that far. And I don’t mind driving as long as my arms don’t hurt, it’s the only time I really listen to Rush or Hannity. But it’s not something I want to do every day! It’s a bit too far for that.

I always make a list for my grocery trips. When I run out of something, I put it on the list right away. If I plan on cooking something I make sure I have every ingredient. At the store, I mark off each item as I get it. My store is two blocks away. ☺ I do this because I don't like going to the store. I bet you do the same thing having to travel that far.
