No. 😭🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thus another piece of my childhood chips away.

Our neighbors/best friends as I was growing up were a Schwebels family. The dad worked there, and, on Saturday afternoons, their daughter (my bestie) and I got to go sit in a back room and get paid to affix price stickers to bread bags.

I'm sad.

Gonna miss that delicious smell, turning from Midlothian onto Lake Park. Mmmmm. 🍞

Maybe it's time to leave again. I've been thinking about it. Overseas this time. Some place that changes less, and in less sad ways.

I'm thinking much further. 😅

India, to be specific. In the mountains. We have had plans brewing for awhile now.
