Corona virus

My wife said the stores in our town were running out of meat.

Ha. I got a bunch of fish and pork and bacon yesterday. But it wasnā€™t until I got the beef that I felt good about everything. Now I know we could stay in the house for at least 2 weeks and be just fine.

You have little food sources running around if things get real desperate.

Where I live there is basically a shortage of paper towels, toilet paper, canned veggies frozen foods and bottled water. There is plebry of fresh produce though and Iā€™ve been a surplus shopper for about a year now so Iā€™m good on TP, Laundry Detergent and Dinty Moore.

I have never had this much food in my house. Like ever. And I have three cases of MREs in the garage. So that is another 72 meals.
And I have been stock piling ammo for a couple years now.

But we are dangerously low on TP and paper towels. Wifey and I had a discussion about conservation of these

There is always the 1 sheet method. Never tried it but be sure not to lose that little piece for under your fingernail!

I just read MA and Ohio closing restaurants for dine in; take out only for a timeā€¦ MA til mid April!

Girl, I read this a little while ago. I canā€™t believe it. This is the first thing thatā€™s truly terrifying to me, other than the economy crashing. My life and the life of everyone I know would become pretty bad. And speaking of the economy, how the hell are these states going to survive without that income tax revenue?

Yesterday we were all time low slow at work. It had me in a pretty bad funk. Then today started off worse but finished off way better, so the funk lifted a little. When I read that about Ohio (didnā€™t know about MA) my heart dropped. Iā€™m in Pittsburgh, so super close to the Ohio border. Too close.

The Illinois governer ordered a shutdown of all bars and restaurants until March 30.

All of my gigs are cancelled.

Theyā€™re only allowing pickup and delivery.
My wife is suggesting that I return to delivering pizzas at Dominoā€™s.

Whatā€™s considered a non essential business?

Illinois has closed ALL bars and restaurants to dine in.
You can only do pick up or delivery options. I think thatā€™s probably what it means

They just did it to us, and thatā€™s what it means.
