My neighbor is the event manager at an upscale DC restaurant (The Monocle). The DC mayor just closed all the restaurants in town. Not good. -- Freedom Isn't Free! Same here. All restaurants closed for the next month at which time the situation will be re-evaluated. Those that have traditionally offered take-out can continue that but not if they hadn't offered it before. Also, all schools, bars are closed, fitness centers limited to 25 people, theaters and any other public place that normally has large numbers of people. (probably will be reduced to 10 people or closed altogether). One of the popular supermarkets up here just announced they will open early starting this Thursday for seniors only from 6am to 7:30am Gonna be interesting in how they enforce that. I can see fights in the parking lot over toilet paper. Just got the Safeway ad. TP even on sale. Limit 12 rolls. I ordered my list for Store pickup. I guess so many are ordering on line, can not,pick up until Thursday. I have to take Pop to PT tomorrow so I will stop by Publix and see how bad it really is. The only thing I wanted the other day that was sold out was bread. I ended getting some fresh from the bakery. It was actually a nice change from factory bread. |

The only thing I wanted the other day that was sold out was bread. I ended getting some fresh from the bakery. It was actually a nice change from factory bread. The only fresh meat in the counter yesterday afternoon was corned beef, turkey patties, and ground chicken. The rest was gone. Didn't look at toilet paper. If things get really bad, I'll just go poop in the Safeway toilet. Probably be a long line! -- Freedom Isn't Free! Probably no TP. One guy I know of lives in New Mexico. Works at the county gun range 2 days a week. They were teaching a CCW class and 15 minutes after they opened, the women’s bathroom had the tP stolen. My daughter is a physical therapist at a hospital in Savannah. Medical folks are stealing the gloves out of patients' rooms. One of the workers was caught with three boxes of gloves under her smock as she tried to sneak out the door. Unreal. -- Freedom Isn't Free! |
