    It has been an interesting day. I recently broke the pick up 3' reach tool I had bought from a local Harbor Freight store, They are very flimsy and very cheap (around $4), so I got 2. Thing is, whenever DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) Paratransite delivers me somewhere it becomes a point in their database, most of my trips are for doctors or medical treatments. The exceptions have been Walmart, and now, Harbor freight. I think of these points as anchor points (that I can refer to later). I turns out Harbor Freight (abbreviated to HB from now on) shares the strip mall with all sorts of interesting places, a medical supply business that could potentially service my powered wheelchair if the need ever arises, Along with an Alti grocery store, Nail salons, and a threading salon. The latter two are places only a woman would love (and I do!), My point is This the first of many future anchor point I have found I can use for pleasure. It opens my eyes to other possibilities. A very good day indeed.I can now address needs I only wished for. HB is a nerd candy store, I mean, milling machines and lathes, in the same room as 1KW solar cell banks, what is not to love!?

    I'm going back tomorrow to repair a ripped thumbnail that is slowly tearing off into the quick.

    All in all, a great day

    I like those grabbers. We have four (free with coupon) from HB. I got 2 extra and gave to a woman in church for her sister who has medical problems, can't reach shelves and isn't able to move a stepstool around.
    We carry one in each car because things always seem to fall between the console/gear shift and you can't reach the item.
    Do you perhaps mean Aldi grocery store? We shop there a lot because their prices on cookies and potato chips are good.
