I might have mentioned ive been a bit housebound as ive been on 2 antibiotics from an ear infection (i have no immune system), and had a few days of no sleep (AB's knocking me about) followed by a long one yesterday (ironically just as i felt i could rest), i finally got some rest and then woke up at 3:30pm and decided i was well enough to go the local major shops about 2k away. Get there with my extensive shopping list:

2 x decent loaves bread
6 potatoes
1 x pack frozen spinach
1 x 2 pack of microwave wholemeal rice
2 x tins of tuna
1 x 4 chicken & vege pies,
2 x 1 Lt bottles of high protein milk
2 x Arnotts Nice bikkies...
1 tub of margarine
1 jar of jam

i buy the same thing about every 4 days (normally) because i have dietary/digestive issues and over time these have proven well tolerated, dont have a pantry, dont have long term stocks of anything, ever...I will top these up with fresh chicken breats or eggs every other week, but essentially this is me., week in week out.

Walk into two supermarkets there and came home with nothing, because d'head paranoids have stripped the shelves bare

Spoke the store manager at the first supermarket, my usual...

Me: "why aren't you stopping the selfish people?"
Her: "we have limits"
Me: "it's obviously not working"
Her: "what can we do"
By this time the security guard has appeared, despite me being polite (mustn't have been the only person to complain)
Me: "you have security guards, you see people behind like animals, you throw them out"
Her: "you need to come at 7am, that's what we're telling everyone"

Note: So at 7am to 8am they decided yesterday to make for the elderly and people with disabilities only, calling it community

Now I haven't mentioned a disability (because i dont like to open with hi, i have aspergers in real life) or anything folks, so they're telling EVERYONE to come at 7am

So much for community hour

So tomorrow at 6:30 i have to leave home and try and get some food that way, because i have maybe 2 days of food, in a major city....

I sent the supermarkets a suggestion or two earlier, in a tweety....like close the stores for an hour and restock the shelves several times at random times during the day, instead of stocking the shelves once and opening the door to the hoarders in the morning and letting them empty the shelves like the selfish pigs they are.

Very much over selfish hoarders, might have mentioned about forming a peoples militia, or taking a pick handle with me, to sort out hoarders in my tweet....

I had a similar delay with my last order - it seemed to sit in Anaheim forever. I got the order last Friday but no update until it was nearby on Thursday.
If you can remember about how many days were you without any information like how many days did it appear to sit in Anaheim? You may have mentioned it but my mind isn't working very well.

Also I just thought I should mention because I know ejuicesteals customer service is really good at least has been for me probably the best customer service I've ever experienced I went ahead and message them you know not blaming them obviously but I asked them you know if they have any insight into what may be happening and how exactly I go about things if it doesn't ever show up and they were very nice and told me that if it doesn't come I contact the United States Postal Service and they'll give me a number which I give to the company and they will either refund me or send me out the package again. So at least that makes me feel better. I'm just going to assume that they're giving me accurate information and that the postal service will know what I'm talkin about LOL unfortunately most of the stuff in my order can't be replaced because it's out of stock and it was on Deep Discount to begin with

Morning all, hope you’re doing well.

I survived the first night with the kids I only have two of them, the oldest and the youngest. The middle child is at her grandpa’s house.

Dil works for Chrysler, so no worry yet about work closing, and financially they should be okay. Daughter and her bf are both in food service. The restaurants are closed, so they’re home. I was eyeing another stabwood, but I think I’m going to pass in case the kids need help.

Not sure if voting is postponed or not, they say yes, they say no, they say y s again. Either way, I’m not going to go. If it is, I can file an absentee

My last order sat in Anaheim for three days in tracking, then tracking updated showing activity belatedly up to the fourth day and arrived in six days. Hopefully your tracking will get updated belatedly too!

I really need to save up for panels. Yours are so lovely! I did hit the lottery, my dotaio actually shipped. Blue, for $62! I think blue is begging for panels :)
I know a guy...

Now you mention it I do remember her being offensive...so why has @Skeebo got his knickers in a twist??
Good question. I think some of it went down around the time Daniel was red Xing Ricky and she said something off the cuff and was taken to task by someone. Shinyitis Support Group
remember then Classwife came on and said she had a lot of reporting and NO MORE X,Y, Z
there is obviously more to the story and perhaps something in another thread and Skeebo just chose us to rail at. We might never know because the thread is "dead to him" and we were only good enough to get yelled at with no explanation.
Once again it boils down to people not speaking their mind and saying what is on their mind and then it all turns to D R A M A

You can't beat homemade bread and I expect yours is extra delicious :)
I miss bread so...and now everyone is making bread and breaking my heart. It is worse then longing for a shiny something.
(no bread allowed here, only eating fruits, vegetables and protein)

I was wondering how you were doing. Everyone knows not to drop their kids off with me. The kids would be fine but I would slit my own throat after about 2 hours.

Those look good with the dt.
It does. Maybe?
I was thinking of getting John to make one that matches out of blue resin.

On the other hand I think I prefer the black. Matches the button and frame.

I think the problem is I'm so satisfied with this AIO that nothing else catches my eye. My shiny purchases have been back to other things.

Thanks for explaining, seriously. I usually have no idea what's going on...

That isn't a bad thing. I'm pretty happy with my dailies and just order the occasional new rta to play with down the road. Would like to get about 10 more CS120s but bank account say nope.

Well that can hardly be construed as bullying if she was offensive....I wish we'd sorted it in house though.

I find a lot of posts offensive but I never complained or fired back. I have a long ignore list, Anna isn't on it. I just hope she comes back, I used to look forward to Friday when she got home from work and started posting.

Voting is canceled here. Only things permitted to be open are groceries, pharmacies and banks. Restaurants can do delivery or curbside pickup. I saw this on the Skimm this morning... hopefully you have better luck with your kiddos!

"Teachers deserve to make a billion dollars a year. Or a week" – Shonda Rhimes after homeschooling her kids for a total of one hour and 11 minutes. Finally, someone said it.

I have a package out for delivery, and no idea what it is. Hope it’s shiny! It’s not one of my overseas orders, so a little lost. Maybe after coffee it’ll come to me lol.
