Well, I did the shopping this afternoon instead of in the early mornings (around 8) which I had been doing in the last three or four months. So far today it went pretty well. There was only a two to three minute wait to get into the store. Not bad! The last time I did that, I waited for 45 minutes. So I think that I will go with this routine now, like the way it used to be.

Unfortunately when I got back from shopping, I had an encounter with a neighbor near me that didn't go well. She has a small dog and there are times that she plays with the dog on the walkway - throwing a small rope in which the dog and her are running back and fourth. I told that woman that the manager at my place is very strict about letting dogs run loose. I had come out of the elevator and almost got hit by that rope that she threw. She apologized but then said what she's doing is not wrong. The thing that annoys me the most is that this goes on a lot and she's very noisy and it happens right outside my door, when I want to relax. So I feel bad that I had to confront a neighbor.
