Hi Chris Glad you and your family are having a nice day and enjoyed shopping It's good you had a chance to stock up on items you needed. I did as well this morning. The mood is very serious out shopping People are trying to get what they might need. Lots of canned goods sold out bread and bottled water too, Basically anything you would really need to survive an illness or quarantine. I saw someone with a mask on in my dollar tree today. I don't think anyone in my town has the virus. But it reminded me of photos of people in China. . Thanks for all my nice hugs today Have a good evening hugs to all-Stephanie

Good to see you’re stocking up on the essentials. We’re not in lockdown yet, but people here suddenly went mad and bought up all the toilet paper! People were fighting in the stores! The stores have put a limit on the number of items you can buy for some products now. It may not be the zombie apocalypse, but people are sure acting like zombies, following the crowd. There was no reason that toilet paper should be stocked up on, but people blindly followed the trend. It reminded me of that scene in World War Z where all the zombies ran together and climbed over each other to get over the wall (if you haven’t seen that movie yet, I totally recommend it).
Happy 91st birthday to Grandma! What a wonderful milestone :)) And I can’t believe Hunter is 5 already. He’s grown up so much, totally lost the baby look and is a strong little man now :) aww :)

Speaking of birthdays... I’d like to send you an Amazon voucher for your birthday this year. Normally I like to hand-pick something to send to you but this year I’ve run out of time! So please check your email in the coming days, you should get an email from Amazon with a voucher code. :))

Sending love and best wishes xxx

Hi Chris and Holly So glad that you were able to stock up on some of the essentials. John and I did a little shopping as well and got a few things that we needed. I have a full freezer and lots of canned vegetables and fruits in the basement so we are not to concerned about food. The local supermarket still did have toilet paper!! Can you believe a toilet paper shortage!! That is ludicrous. John and I are doing all right today. Of course we are missing Mya terrible and trying to keep busy so we don't think about her. It is so good that we still have Allie to help us get through this tough time. Have a great Sunday. Hugs--John Debbie and Allie
