Spit On Your Fingers

Wash your hands a hundred times a day,                                                            with soap/water or use spray.                                                                                With Covid everyone wears a mask in the store,
even if you are just four.                                                                                        At the store the plastic bags are stuck,                                                                  open one up with good luck.                                                                                  Spit on your fingers if you must,                                                                            be careful you may die and turn to dust.
 

 
Note: I am so tired of "keep clean" and then you can't get the bags in the stores open. I have asked managers to put a dish with a wet sponge. They say, not clean. But spitting on your hand and touching the bags is clean????? "Really" The world has gone mad.

Do as I do: when you enter the store, grab an antiseptic wipe and use it to touch everything and to open plastic bags. If it dries out to soon, walk to the ice cream section and wipe the moisture off the inside window! Aloha! Rico

Thanks for reading and for writing. You have me laughing. You are so smart with your, "walk to the ice cream section and wipe the moisture off the inside window." None of the stores have antiseptic wipes at the door. "Great ideas" Enjoy your day with blessings....................
