Dollar Tree had already raised prices in Del Rio

The rain many parts of Texas have experienced this week has bypassed Del Rio or at least our part of Val Verde County. My rain catchment system has been empty for weeks. I also have two 32 gallon containers with City of Del Rio water which for those not familiar with this area is excellent and comes from San Felipe Springs. As I am typing this I am hearing thunder, lol!

The big non-political news today was that Dollar Tree would be carrying items worth more than a dollar. That did not come as a surprise as in Del Rio prices went up in May 2020 as written in a prior post  https://terlinguadreams.blogspot.com/2020/05/dollar-tree-no-longer-sells-things-for.html

Yesterday I made a quick trip to town to pick up the mail and a prescription at HEB. My intention was to also pick up a gallon of milk but ended up spending almost $80.00 because I went on an empty stomach.

At the pharmacy, they had several chairs set out when there usually are very few. I asked the clerk why there were so many people sitting there (thankfully all had masks on) she said they mostly were there for the Covid-19 shot which I was glad to hear. 

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Beautiful sunny day / New C.P.A.

It was a beautiful sunny day that started out cold (for me) at 47 degrees but warmed up nicely to 88 degrees this afternoon.  Set a new record high for today beating out the 2004 record of 80 degrees.

Too bad all this is set to come to an end as we are expecting a cold front and rain in the early morning hours.  My rain catchment ran out of water yesterday so I am ready for the showers and their beneficial rain.

I have been meaning to set up an appointment with a local CPA firm as I have several questions that I need professional advice on. What was my surprise when I called and was told they are no longer taking any new clients. It sounds like a lot of doctors in Del Rio that have a close practice and are not seeing new patients or if they are you have to fill out a form and be approved.

Lucky for me I was a former client of her late father's and she agreed to take me on as her client but not before several telephone calls between her receptionist and myself.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
