One upside of our area being more commercialized is that many goods and services are now just walking distance or one short ride away. Here's a recent one I did: Hardware store: Screw hooks and octopus adapter. Computer and cellphone repair shop: Schedule desktop check-up. Seamstress: Pick up repaired item and took new item for repair. Drugstore: Buy meds. Salon: Waxing. Spa: Massage. I also checked out the clothes stall, cellphone accessories store, new laundry shop and bought empanada at a new food store. When I scrolled through Pixabay to find an image for this post, this one made me chuckle because it's so true.

Wow, waxing and massage are luxury for me. All chores is mine for the taking. Name it, it will be on my list. Ahaha

It was such a relief when I found they're allowed to open again so I made sure to have it done asap.

I think it would be very easy there if we were in need of services or goods.

It helped a lot especially when the pandemic started last year and there were no transportation.

My errands include dropping off my laundry, doing groceries, and picking up the laundry.

@merrybelle2021 none. I'll gladly let someone do the laundry and fold the clothes for me.

No plans to buy an automatic washing machine?

I stay home and do as much as possible for myself. I am high risk for Covid so wouldn't take the chance on doing any of the items on your list. I do need to make two phone calls to check on my medicine delivery and to talk with my bank but that's the whole of my list of things to do.
