Good morning















Sunrise from yesterday or the day before. I'm greeted each morning with the sunrise.
This morning I took a little trip down memory lane - unexpectedly.
The grocery store next to my place is open 24 hours a day. I rented a movie and watched it on my 1/2 day off from the store and went to return it this morning at 6am. I walk into the store and was taken back to my childhood. Suddenly I felt like I was standing in Sani Food (the grocery store my parents owned). The lights were on, but dimmed. The bakery was cooking - the smell of fresh baked donuts. I can see perfectly, the donut case at Sani-food when you first walk into the store. I can't even remember the last time I had a donut, but as a kid and in high school I ate them probably more than I should have. I'd stand there and debate about which one to get - knowing full well it's always the same. A chocolate bar.
Then back to office at the store where I would eat my donut, drink my chocolate milk and either pretend to work or play tetris. Ahhh....I miss being a kid.
