I have no car, so all those parking woes are terra incognita to me.

I make sure when I take Benji out that have two poo bags with me. I always pick up after him.

I don't have a car either and there are no parking lots at the stores here. I walked from home with a cane and if I go far outside of my neighborhood, I take the subway or bus. For food shopping I take a wheeled bag (my cart that I use for dropping off laundry is too unwieldy to use for anything else) and don't buy more than the bag will hold.

I'm much the same.

I'm curious about your 'wheeled bag', the ones I've tried are designed to be pulled, which works against my use of a cane to prevent falling.

I supposedly have several Amazon packages coming on July 1st... which is a holiday here in Canada. Wonder how that'll go.

There's a playground opposite our new house. We heard from a neighbour that it is meant for children up to aged 4. But they recently installed a new webbed swing and kids all ages are using it. In the evening often a bunch of teens come together to chat and hang out.

Interestingly the teens aren't causing any problems. They just hang out, chat and film each other on the swing.

Yesterday morning at 6.30 am someone let their kids out to play on the playground. Normally not a huge problem, but these kids were screaming and screeching. I, and I suspect the other neighbours, don't appreciate being woken that early on a Sunday morning. I suspect it were the kids from two doors down from us. When they are outside in the afternoon playing it often involves being loud. During the day I don't care much, but not on a Sunday morning when I had planned to have a lazy morning.
