Working up the motivation to go shopping

A red hat, inspired by a symbol of resistance to Nazi occupation, gains traction in Minnesota
We have heat, though when it's nearly 0 outside, it's still struggling. But hey, it's not in the 40s inside so I'm not complaining. Speaking of it being colder than a witch's tit outside (checking...yep, they cold but not THAT cold), we're going to head out soon to get some groceries and pick up prescriptions. We had done a grocery shop on the Thursday before the hot water pipe issue and storm of annoyance but since it was a small and Supermarket Sweep style shop, we do need to stock up now. I will say, we did make a good dent in eating down stuff in the fridge and freezer. We would've done better but with as annoying as it was to deal with all that, I was the only one inclined to make proper meals and with snow clearing and back to work fun, I wasn't THAT inclined so the snack cabinet took a decent hit.
I want to make sure to get things so that BOTH of us are eating properly this week. I did manage to pack Emily her grazing boxes for work on Wednesday and Friday so that she wasn't spending the day at work alternating between coffee and Pepsi instead of actual proper food.
Emily was bored enough to watch the "Stopping the Steal" documentary HBO and while I couldn't watch much with her because I can't stand to see or hear the voice of Tangerine Hitler, I was pretty gobsmacked at realizing how much older and worse he looks just in four years. Hate clearly ages you. Well keep hope alive, eh? Keep eating those Big Macs and taking the insane amount of aspirin that you do, dude.
