I went to get a pack at my Safeway but was shocked at how expensive they were (new taxes since I last quit) so I walked out and drove across the bridge to Virginia where they are half the price. Guess I'm still my same cheap self even when I'm craving some nicotine.

We still do not have the distance-learning packets from FFX county, nor any real time distance leading elementary lessons - after 3 weeks.
But my kids recognized one of their teachers in front of their school when we rode by yesterday: he was passing out free lunch.
I pay taxes to the school to educate by kids, not to run a soup kitchen for the 5% farms. Teachers are supposed to teach.
I pay taxes to educate your kid and have teachers hand out lunches to FARMs children. I also pay to educate my children privately. They have no packets but intelligent ostentatious who can manage Grade 4 and 6 work.

I've been contemplating divorce for a while now, but that sealed it.
