May I pour you a drink? Someone has apparently bottled our sorrow. False advertising, however, is definitely at play. It doesn’t taste anything like writers tears! I think I will have another, just to be sure…
Real-life problems of the obsessive mind. Being told to wash your hands more, when you already do it excessively.
To the individuals out there hoarding stuff to make yourself feel better – remember, everyone else needs toilet paper to wipe their ass too!
How silly are you going to feel, when this is all over and you’re left with a drawer full of surgical masks? You’ll have to develop a medical fetish or dress up like a naughty nurse on Halloween for the rest of your life, to put those masks to good use!
We get it 2020, it’s a new decade and you’re trying to make an impact. Mission accomplished, now STOP.
Anxiety has a strong hold on me. I have spent the last few days collecting supplies and cleaning door knobs. There is a very fine line between precaution and paranoia.
How is everyone doing?
Please stay safe and take care.
Sending lots of love…

Fallen Angel On the Run 
The run on supplies is so crazy and global. I went to the store Tuesday and there was plenty of toilet paper but by Wednesday afternoon the stores were empty.
I think by this time next month it’s all going to die down but if times get tough don’t overlook those boxes.
Soak the shredded cardboard in warm water and use a blender to make pulp. Spread the pulp thinly on a screen and with a little practice you can make tissues.

Same here. Buying made us feel more prepared for what was happening. It’s interesting that other parts of the world dealt with it differently. Your wealth of knowledge always impresses me. This is helpful, thank you for sharing Lloyd! Sending light and blessings your way 💜Have a good week!😊

Yeah! It’s a bit crazy out there in the stores, for sure. But apart from the hoarding, which is so Twilight Zoneish and even worse right now than when we have hurricane preparation!!!, all here in very Southeast Georgia is alright. And there is a ton of moss on the ground if the toilet paper never gets restocked. We will only have to check it VERY well for chiggers!!! 🤣I was in India for a couple of months a few years ago and they traditionally don’t use toilet paper. They have a small pitcher by the toilet and wash their bums afterwards. It’s really very nice once You get used to doing it. Feels MUCH cleaner then toilet paper. So there is always that. I’ve volunteered to the the one in our house to forgo TP in case it comes to that. TMI. I know. 🤣Just waiting. Sending Love round the world. It’s so strange, isn’t it? And YES please, pour me a shot!!! 🤣❤️🍀🌀🙏🏼

Pouring you one right now!💞😃So happy to hear things are ok and that you’ve already come up with alternate solutions. All I fondly remember about the restrooms in India were the squat toilets and how hard it was for me to get used to them!😅😂 I think we will handle all of this better if we think a little outside our normal routines and ways of dealing with things. Thank you for sharing solutions to the toilet paper issue! I really appreciate your positive way of tackling the situation!💗🍀🌻

Live alone so not freaking out about supplies – only need enough for me. Lot’s of phone calls with my elderly parents – my mom is getting stir crazy. Daughter’s in NYC – sensitive subject – makes me miss her much and want to do something crazy like go up there and hole up with her.
I work in surgical services and have found reports of what ER and Critical care nurses are going through to be very humbling.

Thank you for reading! Doctors and nurses everywhere are living angels for the difficult work they are doing to remedy this tragic situation. I totally feel your pain about being away from your daughter. I am also far away from my family. Every day is hard but we must be strong and remind ourselves that this will come to an end and we will hopefully be reunited with them soon!💞
