What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Probably not.

Saturday morning is usually grocery shopping morning - watching the sunrise with the first cup of coffee usually entails making a list of the not-so-usual things that we need for the week. Sitting here like zombies with shattered habits is weird.

 

It only unwinds leaving a tail within reach if you're having a good day.

 

Happy birthday Spirit of Two Socks and Stoveshamster

 

Seen 'em around here 6-8 weeks back already...

 

Figures. Our yards are still white and yours are greening up already! Dang tropics!

Below freezing with a bit of a wind this morning. It is going to be clear and sunny today. We are expecting this kind of weather for a few days now. It will be nice to get outside and get a few things done tomorrow.

 

We’re seeing some greening of trees and grass, but not a robin in sight. Should be soon though.

 

Yes, yes they are...never even went totally brown this year honestly...seen dandelions blooming in January too!
So far the city has not plowed snow this year...salted only...first time ever!

 

Next year, the trees will be holding their leaves!

 

If it wasn't for the frost this week, we would be mowing lawns. It is getting long with all the fertilizing the dogs give it.

 

Our daffodils are popping up too...a good 6" tall now...

 

Just spent the better part of 3 hours hitting 4 different stores for basic life supplies.

I am always stocked up with a month of food and stuff. Just so happens this was restocking week. Bad timing.

These lunatics buying up everything is insanity. No chicken in any stores. Only beef left is $10+ per lb. (Soooo happy I bought a cow this fall). No milk, butter, or bread available. Schools here are closed for 4 weeks.

I found 48 rolls of tp at the dollar store. Bought em all.

The dollar store was the only place with rice, beans, and other long term storage items left. They also had milk butter and bread which nobody else had.

People were lined up at the aldi door an hour before opening. Smh.

wth is wrong with people? Can they not plan?

Jeebus. Ok.....rant over.

 

Meet the unconfident consumer.

 

If you work a lot of hours that window of opportunity to spend shopping can be rather small.
Seems to me, the people lined up an hour before the store opens are planning.
Planning on being done before the rest of the hoi polloi shows up.

 

My wife and I were saying people must not work anymore or everyone is retired. On Friday, Costco had a full lot and a line at 10am when it opened. We drove on and went to another store. I wouldn’t think of going there on the weekend.

 

It's crazy out there. The wally world is nothing but empty shelves. Time to get creative when making dinners this week.I wonder how long till the squirrel and rabbit population takes a hit.

He!!, it'll be another six weeks before we see the ground................................... Any robins here will need skis to land in this yard.
