When it comes to groceries and what's available it can be like playing a game. Today we decided to make our list and have it delivered. Unfortunately the deliveries are booked solid for two weeks. Next choice is pick-up....

Lynn The lack of frozen vegetables doesn't surprise me too much. Frozen foods went out almost as quickly as the canned here, and they haven't been getting enough to keep them in stock for very long. Today was the first time in a few weeks that I've seen the frozen...

He is speaking at a Coronavirus Task Force press conference. He has the vocabulary of a 1st grader. He speaks so vaguely and never commits to anything. I don't know if he truly doesn't know the information or if he simply...

Lynn My mom made a comment about how well he's handling this crisis when we talked on the phone earlier this week. It took me a while to chase down my eyes after that one.

I took my car to the dealership to have a recall repair done. They did an inspection on it and found a very extensive list of other things that needed to be done, including adjusting the rear brakes and replacing the brake shoes,...

I was wondering, do you guys think that grocery stores and other suppliers will close in the near future? Perhaps that's why everyone is stockpiling supplies at their homes. I just went shopping and couldn't find anything left in...

Lynn I don't think they will; they've been classified as essential services in a lot of places, and many of the grocery chains are hiring more temporary workers to help stock the shelves and meet demands. The stores here are getting more shipments in daily. The...

To get cat food, they have enough for now, but I need to go and get cat food in a few days, and trash bags if I can find them. Jill went to the store yesterday because she was there already and was able to pick up milk, and...

Lynn If Home Depot is still open you might be able to find trash bags there. The grocery stores here are all sold out but Home Depot had several pallets of them right in the entrance.

I just can't take the judgement, the criticism on my choices so I'm done here at least for the moment. Most of you are awesome, and I appreciate that, but some are just upsetting me in a situation that is already...

Lynn The actual line I heard straight from my Trump-supporting mother was that this all comes back to the New World Order that Bush and Obama were pushing for during their terms. The coronavirus panic is the Dems' plot to ruin the economy so they can install a...

They've ordered over 40 million people to stay at home starting tomorrow. It was only a matter of time for this to happen. Anyone who has taken algebra or biology knows about exponential growth curves. Sounds like the governor...

Lynn What's really crummy is that the testing situation has ensured that there is a huge discrepancy between the number of reported cases and the number of actual infections. The lockdown orders stink, but it's going to take drastic measures to flatten that growth...

Lynn @porwest The numbers are definitely being under reported. The number of testing kits is limited, and in a lot of cases they're refusing to test people unless their symptoms are very severe. People are being told "yeah, you probably have it, but we can't waste...

Lynn @porwest It's not about the overall death toll. It's about the fact that this is a highly contagious virus that virtually nobody has immunity to. It's going to spread, and yes, viral infections do spread exponentially when people are in close contact...

Lynn @JudyEv Getting too pushy is definitely a sign that it's time to look elsewhere for whatever they're selling.

We need a cure for that virus and need someone figure out how to do it. It is not getting better, but, worse. So far supermarkets and banks are open. Some schools will be closed so parents will have to figure out what to do with...

Lynn @Hannihar Eh, I think the official recommendations aren't, but the panic buying that's clearing shelves in just about every store is definitely overdoing it. There's a difference between being prepared and starting a hoard.

Lynn @Hannihar Yeah, that's important. I'm not really concerned about it, and I personally think that a lot of it's being blown out of proportion, but it's still important to take those precautions because we might not be in the most vulnerable groups but we can...

There were speculations last month that the corona virus with official name of COVID-19 has no match for the hot sun. There is logic in that because heat can definitely kill organisms. If you had seen one of my posts before,...

Lynn I think some of that speculation may come from the usual patterns we see with influenza. A lot of the spread during winter months is because people tend to spend more time indoors and in close contact with other people, so illnesses can spread more...
