Corsaire, ROFLMAO. Blending steak???? LOL Hope you’re all doing good. Went to the grocery store this morning and picked up DH & my scripts. Ran into a couple of ladies that regularly shop there, one said ya want a fist bump or an elbow bump? We were looking for the 15 oz cans of veggie broth for cooking and there was NONE to be had. Other than the TP, wipes and hand sanitizers being gone, this is the first time in the 30+ years I’ve been shopping there , the shelves were totally empty of some basic food stuffs. It’s getting ridiculous. The schools are shut down for the next 2-3 weeks. Can’t go to the theater as productions have been put on hold. There is very little bar soap or liquid soap left on the shelves. They are even rationing diapers, 5 packages per person. Even the cloth diapers are gone, so I showed my friend and her daughter(has 8mth old twins) how to use a hand towel for diapers. We had to do that in 68-69 when we got snowed in, my brother was 8-9 mths old at the time. Mom had won a year of diaper service and two months in, we got snowed in so no diapers and we were running out of dry diapers, no electricity to run the washer and dryer . SO we were washing them in the sink and hanging them to dry in the basement, took forever but one of the neighbors had a snowmobile and was doing runs to the store for the neighbors and Mom went to the disposables after that. Talked to my brother in NV , they are ok but he’s a bit ticked off, there’s no SHAMPOO, he said he went to 5 different stores and ALL the shampoo is gone even the fru-fru stuff as he calls it. Told him I’d be glad to send him a couple of bottles in exchange for some bar soap, LOL. Also talked to sister in VA she’s okay for right now but the AC company she works for and cleans the office( for extra pay) is out of TP . She said when she left Friday, there were two large 8 pks in the stock room and several bottles of sanitizer for the office, got there this am to clean and TP is gone along with the sanitizers and she can’t get anymore. As the supply mgr, she has to send out an EM tomorrow , thanking the thief and telling every one to bring a roll in from home. Baby bro (in WA) says he’s down with a cold, sounded horrible, so big sister got het up and told him to get his arse to the doctor. I am praying he is okay and of course I will HOUND him. That’s my job as the big sister lol. DH and I are doing ok and we’re still planning on driving down to GA for baby’s birthday unless we get shut down for the next two weeks. Son 1 has his two older kids that week end for their sisters party and we haven’t seen them since the summer. So we’ll see how it goes over the next two weeks. Stay safe everybody.
