    Nothing new here. Had rib steak, fried taters & salad for dinner. Ran & dropped off Easter baskets to the grand kids. Just stayed outside & visited a few minutes. Got work in the shop tomorrow, but not much after that. They have no real clear answers on unemployment for self employed. Gonna take a chance & cash in a couple retirement accounts. Not looking good for banks & such, gonna get my money in my hands I think.

    Dennis, please reach out on facebook, so many willing, able, and wanting to help people like you. I'd prefer if you did not have to go to the store and rather do a handoff or delivery to your home.

    Right where I want to be.
    Meijer has shoppers who fill your order and all you need to do is show up. They load it in your vehicle (we've had ours loaded in the bed of the truck twice) and done.
    We only took the perishables and frozen stuff in the house. Everything got wiped down, put away, then hands got washed. A couple times.
    First trip was a five hour fiasco.....second one took a little over 1.5 hours and the drive is 35-40 minutes one way. We've also done some shopping via Wally and Amazon......a lot is still out of stock.

    Thanks WW. We do have a good offer on doing that if we so choose. So far we've needed very little. Wife plans on going to the little store out here in the country this week. So long as she goes before Thursday it should be good but the last 3 days of the week there gets crazy as it is also a good meat market.

    Good. I don't read too well so pictures do tend to help a bit.

    Right! No if we just imagine all the counties in this state with the same problem Especially draw a line east and west of Clare and from there north as far as you can go in MI then try to imagine all the cottages involved. I'm not sure if even calling out the National Guard would get this job completed. So why make the order?
