My sister and I went to Walmart this morning. I get my prescriptions there so I really
needed to go in order to get my 3 months supply of blood pressure meds.
I didn't see much shelf stocking going on. There was no toilet paper, no paper towels,
little detergents, no hand sanitizers, no bar soaps. Many shelves are empty in the
grocery department. It's actually mighty sad to look at.
They did have some supplies in that was not there before. We bough flour that they
did have in, they didn't before when we were last there. They also had dry powdered
milk that I had been looking for every where, so I was happy to get that. My sister
uses the Walmart great value brand powdered creamer for coffee and they have been
out of it but had a large supply in so she bought several of those.
We wore surgical masks and gloves. I also wore a baseball cap and my big dark glasses
that I have to wear from the cataract surgery, plus I was wearing a hoodie. I looked like
something out of a nightmare.
So altho they are consistently out of many products at Walmart, they are still trying to
stock the shelves with what the truck brings in.
Well believe it or not, I do have a little experience in plumbing.
My mother and step father owned a plumbing, heating, air business all their life.
When I bought this house, since it ia on town system, I ask about the plumbing.
Since there was not a backflow in place, I paid a bit over $400 to have one
installed. It's something may not ever be needed but it gives peace of mind.
Every house/business should have it if they live in an area that has a city
septic system.
Since this is an old coal mining town, a little elevated, hilly streets....up....
down.....up.....down.....slightly, and not knowing how old the pipes are
under the ground, and the amount of rain it gets here, I felt it was wise
to have the backflow installed.
Well for starters now there is an outbreak of plumbing issues. So if anyone is getting
rich right now, it appears to be the plumbers. When going to the residence or business
they are finding mass toilet paper, wipes, paper towels, napkins, and even other stuff
that has clogged the pipes!!!
What the heck is wrong with people? You don't flush anything down a toilet except
toilet tissue.
The next issue.....that is NOT an issue at the moment, is a major disaster. What if
we had some sort of devastation some where.....people would have to gather together.
What a giant mess that would be.
I don't wish this on anyone, any where. I feel sorry for those that have lost love ones,
no matter what country they are in. I sure don't see this as a country competition.
I think they need to focus more than they are in the media about the life time damage
it can personally do to those infected.
It's not just about dying. It's not just about having it for a couple of weeks.
It's also about the long term harm it causes. It's been stated the lungs can
become damaged for life. So even for the young, they may find themselves
suffering in their older age with lung disease....all due to this virus.
I am sure I do have money there but I don't care what they do with it.
I'm positive it is not much.
The thing is, whatever profile I have in there, has changed. My address,
my bank, everything is different. Also I had a business email addy that
I no longer have.
A major issue with the coronavirus is respiratory. A big cause of the respiratory is the
thickening of the respiratory with flem. So you want to keep your lungs and respiratory
tract as broken up as possible and by that I mean to consistently drink hot fluids. HOT.
Usually I cancel my Netflix subscription about April and then pick it back up
about November. I may be hanging on to it longer though due to being inside
more.
It's a docuseries. An absolute must watch. Here is an image of Joe and you
