Our governor extended again when the legislature wouldn't extend it in their session yesterday. May 28th. I have to say I'm starting to actually get ragey.

Our “Stay at Home” order was officially extended to May 29th... but retail stores are opening up in a little under two weeks.

Home Depot is packed, I waited 25 minutes to get in yesterday. Target is packed. Grocery stores are packed. So I don’t really think the term “Stay at Home” is fitting of what we’re doing/allowed to do.

Are they packed or are they only letting in a certain number of people in at a time? Rope drop of just before close are generally the best times to go. Remember your Disney training

I think I said this yesterday, but I found it at GNC.. I know you can order from Bath & Body Works too.. apparently it’s still in stock and delivered relatively quickly.

Just order more than hand sanitizer. They have a rather high shipping charge, last time I looked.

I have really got to stop looking at shop disney so much. Pkg arriving today, and just put in another order. I ordered some disney masks! plus more Lego sets for DH.

Let us know about the masks, when you get them. I was looking at them the other day, and I am curious how many layers are really there, and quality, in general.

In my disney pkg today.
My hoodie and DH’s SW First Order set.

I love that hoodie! And I have one more birthday present "wish" I have been holding on to. Maybe I will ask for that.

Both. The grocery is the busiest by far, they are the only ones who aren’t restricting number of people.
Home Depot and Target are still busy with long check out lines, even with the limited numbers.

Mine does! DH made the coffee this morning, and it tastes better when someone else makes it. And because it is Friday, a little whipped cream on top.

Just sitting, catching up on here, sipping my coffee, and keeping up with my instacart shopper. Later, I will be taking the pup to the groomer. With our revised shelter orders, the groomers are allowed to reopen, with curbside drop off and pick up.

How about you? What are you up to today?

Every time I pass a Home Depot lot, I feel kinda queasy thinking about all of the people there. Makes my head spin.

I have been using Instacart to avoid the grocery stores. They are scary, and too many people acting like business as usual.

It's just you! Coffee is awful tasting no matter what day it is!

I went for groceries in Walmart just this morning and only saw two people NOT using a mask. A far cry from what it was like a month ago when I only saw two people that wore a mask.

Yeah I was shocked to see how full the parking lot was. I’m going to try Lowe’s next and see if they’re a little less busy.

With the grocery, I’m so picky about my fruits and veggies that I don’t want anyone else to choose them for me.

It’s not like that here. Even today, most aren’t wearing masks.
What I hear the most often, is people complaining about the orders.

Even my parents, who are both high risk, are done with staying at home. Up to this point they’ve been ordering everything online or curbside, but my mom said they’re going to start going to the grocery, just to get out. They do go to parks when it’s not raining, but sunny days are few and far between right now.

In Milan, Italy, we were in for a rude awakening. Shopping in an outdoor market, we touched the fruits prior to buying. Scolded in Italian and broken English " No #@&€£!! the fruits! The fruits and vegetables are selected by the employee, just give tell them how many you want..

I would be ok with that at an outdoor market, as long as I saw it prior to buying. I’m not letting a Kroger employee select my avocados for me, and especially not seeing them prior to buying.
