Wilson142 Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 I'm good with wood and just received 2 gross of blades.....Toilet paper?? Not so good.

WayneMahler Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 I'm set on wood and finishes. TP not a problem the Mrs. and I just bought a huge package before the surge of everyone grabbing it.Hand sanitizers is a different story though. With the way things are we haven't been going out much . People are just plain crazy out there anymore.

Just thaw some out, have corn on the cob for dinner and you are set. I can still hear my Dad telling me how to go about using corn cobs. He'd say "it take two dark ones and one light one. You use a dark one first, then a light one to see if you need another dark one". My Dad was a hoot.

Wilson142 Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 I may buy a few cases of "Depends". if things get worse there may be a buck to be made dealing them. Sad but true, I live in a gated 55+ community. There are 600 homes here and many older people with all forms of compromised health systems. A week doesn't go by that I don't see EMP vehicles here. The management just posted, no more club house activities. No shuffle board, billiards room closed, library closed, no bingo, no bowling, pools and spa locked up etc. Until the end of April.With so many oldsters going to the clinics and Doctors offices, where they sit in waiting rooms full of sniffling coughing people, I don't think it's if we get a case but when. amazingkevin, OCtoolguy and scrollingforsanity 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also live in a 55+ community. We were supposed to have our annual St. Patrick's Day luncheon today but it was cancelled til further notice. Probably next month if all goes well. And, we see the EMT's in here almost daily. It's a sad state of affairs but we feel like this is our "village" and we are all on high alert to help our neighbors when needed. scrollingforsanity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McDonald Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I went to the store last night and about the only things left in the meat case were some neck bones and ALL the "plant based meat". I guess the vegans want pork chops if the world is coming to an end. OCtoolguy, WayneMahler and amazingkevin 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puzzleguy Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Crazy thing about TP -when you see someone buying like 200 rolls ! what i call a life time supply , basically just hysteria i guess - not going to tell you i didnt go a little crazy - hoping to stay in place at least a couple of weeks before i visit a store again - but like everyone else Its hard not to go stir crazy - I typically get my wood and blades at the end of the year -So i am doing fine. What scares me is that I keeps getting emails from shows i do suggesting that they may cancel -thats my livlihood -getting scary OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
