Used to go to the grocery once or twice a week. I alway kept 3 pounds in
the fridge.

Last time I went to the grocery store was March 12. I just looked it up
in my check register. Two weeks later (March 25) my van wasn't running
right. I went to the drug store, then skipped the grocery store on the
way home as it was not running well at all. I think the timing went out
and even the brakes didn't work well.

It's not worth fixing...time to let it go. So far I've been eating many
things in my freezer and pantry. Time to go ahead and eat all that
stuff. Well...2 months later, I'm finally almost out and many big or
heavy items can't be done by bike.

My daughter is coming Friday and I'll do some large grocery shopping
that day.
