Day #4650 (Thu., Sept. 29, 2022) – McDonald’s!

Bobby went to school today so there are only three of us in the house…Katie, my wife, and myself.  I drove to Glenwood this afternoon to pick him up after school.

With Katie stricken with COVID, and the fact that it is close to month’s end, I decided that I would have a “kind-of-different” Daddy/Daughter Day #124 today.  I talked with Katie and she expressed an interest in having McDonald’s, so when I picked Bobby up after school today off to McDonald’s we went.

Unfortunately they stopped serving slushies since summer is over, but I was able to get the good ole’ standby fruit punch with the double cheeseburger meal for Katie and a Happy Meal for Bobby.  Check out the prices in the photo to the left.  You can see how much inflation has ravaged even McDonald’s prices.

Hurricane Ian is ravaging Florida right now and is gradually moving it’s way up the coast.  They are forecasting strong winds and rain tomorrow, so we got an email from the school board saying that school is cancelled tomorrow.  It seems the the kids have been home more days in September than they have gone to school.

Stocks are down again today.  With earnings season here there is not much hope they will go in any direction other than down…
