The post office was a breeze; the walk there was not bad, since the streets have been salted, and it was warmer outside than I expected. I was not happy at the market at 86th and Amsterdam: not a single clerk on the floor to help in finding items. Since walking with a shopping bag, basket of items, and a cane was painful, the aisles narrow and difficult to maneuver, I asked loudly if there was anyone on he floor for help, got no answer, and I finally put down my shopping basket in disgust and walked out.
