Hi Everyone. I am covering while AJ takes a much needed break. Can anyone relate to shopping lately? Last time I went to the store for pick-up I had to wait 45 minutes. I almost dozed off while waiting.

Awww. Cute picture, thanks. We have grocery pickup here, but So won't use it. I want to pick my own stuff.

My wife used this service a couple of times each time she was very disappointed by the incorrect selection and wrong substitutions. This is why I do not do the shopping as I know I will get it wrong. She goes in herself now.

Yes Thor, I am with you on wrong items. Last time I ordered frosting so I could make a cake for husbands birthday and I got marshmallows. So I have now been using instacart (personal shoppers).

Beryl, your brave. I am afraid to go into the stores. Too many chances where I am located. We have a very high infection rate here.

I'm with Beryl. I shop in store once a week with mask and gloves. I do better selecting my own stuff. Last week found a great mark down on ground beef. A friend poured some Everclear into a small spray bottle so I can sanitize the mask. Other liquors are not strong enough. We each get to choose how much we are willing to venture out. I do so cautiously. Hugs all.

SimpsonsOK., you are also brave for entering the stores. My husband is an essential worker and he has a collection of masks. We use an ozone box with UV to sanitize his masks and then wash them at the end of the week..Hugs.

Thanks Secouya. I don't feel brave. I'm not in a high risk group, so maybe that's part of it. The virus is still here, but something in the air seems to have changed in the last week or 2. I still use a mask and wash my face and hands when I get home, but it feels less threatening lately.

Beryl, I still won’t shop, but I will pick -up or have a personal shopper help me. I very afraid.

    I have 3 kids.  24. 17. 15.  My 17 yr old has become super defiant.  He and his 15 yr old sister have on their own decision stopped going to their dads because he and his household is so toxic.My 15 yr old and myself feel like we have to tip toe around my son who is 17. And physically towers over us and out weighs us. He has become emotionally abusive and on the verge of becoming physically...
