I’m goin’ back to Texas

I’m going to Texas for a business trip. Not really wanting to go because my family is nuts and they are going to aggravate the crap out of me.

I’m convinced some of my relatives are sociopaths. My husband knows them and he agrees. I gotta go take care of estate stuff for my deceased sister, meet with lawyers, maybe an accountant and a real estate agent. This stuff was supposed to be done by a relative, but of course, it has not been done. That has not stopped said relative from criticizing me behind my back for not doing what she should have been doing, but well, sociopaths are like that. Oy, Familia.

On a positive note I will get to:

• See the relatives I like
• Spend time with my abandoned fat cat Audrey
• Eat a Whataburger
• maybe eat Chinese food that has more ingredients than soy sauce and garlic
• stock up of foods that are not to be had here in Mexico and smuggle them in.

What kind of foods/items are not found here?

• Jif peanut butter (hubby’s favorite), in greater than 1 cup (for $3) size
• Kit Kat candy bar
• 3-way light bulbs
• coasters (cheap ones anyway)
• granular Splenda (way expensive here and no big bags either, just packets)
• Whole bean Decaf coffee
• Hershey’s chocolate (the unsweetened kind)

We are going to an American store (what I call it) that supposedly carries all types of products from the US later this afternoon. There are loads of other stuff I need to get but that is all I can remember right now. I am taking 2 big suitcases and packing them lightly. Need room for the return contraband.
