Now that my sister has moved “out to the boonies” in Virginia, shopping is much more of a challenge for her. She’s used to be within 10-15 minutes of all kinds of stores and services. Now that she’s out in the boonies, she has to plan and consolidate her trips and limit the trips to town to just once a week. that’s a big lifestyle change but she’s slowly adapting to it.

Another option for her is to order as much as she can over the internet and let Big Brown bring it all to her doorstep. One of her big personal needs is support hose, which she has to wear every day – even in the heat of summer. So I was delighted to come across an internet source for the ones that she likes.

Just to be nice, I’m going to order her a couple pair from the website and have them delivered as a little surprise. Then she can order her future pairs from the same place.
