I am actually embarrassed to admit this, but one of the things I
learned during our recent move and settling-in, is how dependent
I/we are on the consumer establishment for my sense of security
and well-being.
Ugh! That’s disgusting! But true.
After two or three weeks of unpacking and getting to know our
new town, I noticed that every time we saw a chain store or big
box store that we frequented in our former town, and which was
within a short driving distance of our new digs, one or both of
us gave a sigh of relief or even a little cheer.
Oh. My. God! Are we hooked or what?
